Summary: With the increasing generation of end-of-life (EOL) products due to the development of the industrial economy, recycling and remanufacturing these products have become essential to minimize environmental pollution. This study proposes a stochastic multi-objective optimization model for the disassembly line balancing problem (DLBP) considering uncertainty, aiming to minimize the disassembly idle rate, smoothness, and energy consumption. An improved version of the northern goshawk optimization algorithm is also presented using a stochastic simulation method to solve the proposed model. Extensive examples and performance comparisons demonstrate the feasibility and applicability of the proposed model and algorithm.
