Reverse logistics (RL) is closely related to remanufacturing and could have a profound impact on the remanufacturing industry. Different from sustainable development which is focused on economy, environment and society, circular economy (CE) puts forward more requirements on the circularity and resource efficiency of manufacturing industry. In order to select the best reverse logistics provider for remanufacturing, a multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) method considering the circular economy is proposed. In this article, a circularity dimension is included in the evaluation criteria. Then, analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is used to calculate the global weights of each criterion, which are used as the parameters in selecting RL providers. Finally, technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) is applied to rank reverse logistics providers with three different modes. A medium-sized engine manufacturer in China is taken as a case study to validate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed framework.
