Presented work discusses an industrial field study carried out in the State of Haryana and NCR, and studies configuration of physical reverse logistics networks for automobile tire. Further, the determination of the number and location of different facilities like collection centres, re-manufacturing centres, disassembly centres, recycling centres, disposal centres is demonstrated through real-field data of returns-flow and transportation costs of the products, and also for the intra-stage quantity-flow between facilities in the reverse supply chain. MILP is used to optimize the mathematical model and Lingo solver is used to determine numbers and locations of different key constituting facilities for the reverse logistics network, with an objective of minimising the supply chain cost.
