Today designing Received in revised format and planning a closed-loop chain is an inevitable but difficult task. In this research a scenario- March 29 2019 based modeling approach is presented by considering both forward and reverse flows as a closed- Accepted April 14 2019 Available online loop supply chains in steel industry. The proposed study also develops a multi-product and multi- April 14 2019 period model based on a mixed integer linear programming MILP approach for profit Keywords maximization. The study also considers uncertainty in the amount of raw material processing Closed-Loop Supply Chain storage and distribution of several products flow. Uncertainty is associated with the quantity and Reverse Logistics quality of the products in the reverse flow which are directly affected by customers and sorting Scenario Planning centers respectively. .
