- A growing ecological awareness in modern societies, legal regulations aiming at a reduction of waste storage and economic benefits that we can have from recycling of used products led to a situation that the creation of recycling networks has become an important issue, particularly in developed countries. The paper presents issues related to the design of recycling network whose purpose is to collect from the last owner, dismantle and properly recover end-of-life vehicles. In order to fulfil the ecological requirements and also efficient management of the whole recovery process, the conceptual framework of a reverse logistics network is presented. The collecting of vehicles, dismantling and following processes of shredding and treatment in material recycling facilities are considered jointly. Then a mathematical model is developed which minimizes the costs of setting up the network and also the relevant transportation costs. Because of the complexity of the model, a solution methodology based on the evolutionary algorithm is proposed which enables achieving good quality solutions in a reasonable algorithm run time. In particular, the participants and the flows in the recycling network and visualisation of the results for flows between dismantlers and plastic recycling facilities are presented in the paper.
