Abstract

This paper aims to study the optimal location and vehicle routing problem in Multi-Temperature Joint Distribution System. Researchers have constructed a food cold chain model that takes into account the carbon emissions into its objective function. The proposed model simultaneously minimizes logistic costs and environmental impacts of carbon emissions by providing a bi-objective binary integer-programming model. What’s more, a numerical example is presented to verify the validity of the model. The result indicates that this model is feasible for the optimal location and vehicle routing problem. This model contributes to decision makers to find the best Pareto Optimal solutions in Multi-Temperature Joint Distribution System according to their preference.
