Abstract: Disassembly is a crucial subject in view of the fact that it has a pivotal role in reverse supply chains. It will be possible to make effective disassembly operations with disassembly line balancing. In this study, ELECTRE is used for the first time in the literature to determine the assignment priorities of the tasks to work stations. Two algorithms are also proposed to improve the initial assignments. The first improvement algorithm aims to minimize the workstation number if it is possible. On the other hand, the aim of the second improvement is to make a better balance with interchanging the tasks between workstations. The result is compared with the results in the literature. A novel comparison criteria is also proposed called Deviation Mean (DM) in this study.
