Summary

Waste management systems can recover resources and energy, but optimizing them requires multi-objective planning. An interactive goal programming model helps analyze performance under different objective priorities for better waste resource recovery strategies.

Area of Science:

  • Environmental Engineering
  • Operations Research
  • Sustainable Systems

Background:

  • Modern waste management systems increasingly integrate energy and material recovery, transforming them into resource-generative entities.
  • Analyzing these complex systems solely through single-objective optimization (e.g., cost minimization) is insufficient due to multiple, often conflicting, objectives.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an interactive goal programming model for multi-objective planning of waste management systems.
  • To analyze system performance under varying priority structures of conflicting objectives.
  • To demonstrate the utility of the model for tactical and strategic planning in waste management.

Main Methods:

  • Development of an interactive goal programming model tailored for multi-objective waste management planning.

  • Application of the model to a case study of a typical county region.
  • Visualization and analysis of system performance based on different objective priority settings.

    • Main Results:

    • The model effectively visualizes waste management system performance under diverse objective priorities.
    • The study highlights the significant impact of changing priority structures on achieving system objectives.
    • Demonstrated the model's utility in understanding trade-offs between cost, resource recovery, and environmental impact.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed interactive goal programming model is a valuable analytical tool for waste management planning.
    • The model facilitates strategic and tactical decision-making by illustrating the consequences of prioritizing different objectives.
    • Applicable globally, offering insights for developed nations (e.g., UK) and developing nations (e.g., India) in establishing resource recovery units.
