This study presents a network-based mathematical model for optimizing municipal solid waste management programs. The model aids in making operational decisions and evaluating economic benefits of various waste collection and treatment strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Engineering
  • Operations Research
  • Waste Management Systems

Background:

  • Integrated municipal solid waste management requires effective operational planning and economic optimization.
  • Decision-making in waste management is complex, involving collection, treatment, and disposal strategies.
  • Previous models may lack simplicity or ease of result assimilation for management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and apply a simple mathematical model for integrated municipal solid waste management planning.
  • To solve an economic optimization problem within the operational planning phase of waste management.
  • To facilitate management choices by providing easily assimilated results.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a network-based mathematical model representing the municipal solid waste management cycle.
