Healthcare waste (HCW) management is a complex issue influenced by many factors, including technological, economic, environmental, and social factors. It is possible to regard the evaluation of the best treatment technique for HCW management as a challenging case of MCDM (multi-criteria decision-making), where various alternatives and evaluation criteria must be considered. The presentation and handling of the shaky data are crucial to choosing the HCW treatment technology. In order to address the issue of MCDM issues with Fermatean fuzzy (FF) data, we first build a consensus-based WASPAS approach in this study. In the suggested integrated methodology, the rank of the alternatives is determined using the WASPAS method in an FF environment, and the attribute weights are estimated using the entropy measure technique. In the preceding, an HCW treatment technology assessment issue is considered to make the proposed structure's applicability more transparent. In this study, four HCW treatment methods—chemical disinfection, microwave disinfection, cremation, and autoclaving—are considered options. According to the study's findings, autoclaving is the most effective HCW treatment method. Additionally, we demonstrate a sensitivity assessment using several criteria weight sets to test the stability of our intriguing proposed approach. We also call attention to a contrast between our suggested approach to decision-making and the practices now in use.
Wastes generated in any part of the globe or in a country like India would definitely need to be understand about the waste and the impact that it brings to the environment or the human kind in its disposal. In this review more of the understanding is levied on the concept of waste and its purpose to reach the landfill as a final or the only option to non-degradable and non-recyclable waste materials. Strict adherence to the basic understanding of waste and its sorting and its disposal has to be on compliance with the environment and its safe keeping policy. It is necessary prospect to dispose the wastes only after careful sorting, distribution and disposal of wastes at landfills. Green technology is the ultimate need in approaching towards the feasible and safe approach to waste management disposal and its management of landfills is by seeking solutions which are environmentally and ecologically balanced system. Reducing, Reusing and Recycling are the core strategies to go technologically before placing these wastes in the modern and highly advanced landfills.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
