Abstract
To enhance the scientific rigor of construction reverse logistics networks, improve the resource utilization rate of construction waste, and mitigate conflicts between corporate profitability and national sustainable development, this study proposes a bi-level optimization model that integrates both global and local optimization. The proposed model incorporates a local optimization module within the framework of global optimization, thereby improving overall network coordination while further enhancing economic and environmental benefits. Analysis demonstrates that the inclusion of local optimization plays a positive role in reducing carbon emissions and alleviating environmental burdens.
