Optimizing the environmental performance of integrated waste management scenarios by means of linear programming: a case study

Using a fuzzy TOPSIS-based scenario analysis to improve municipal solid waste planning and forecasting: A case study of Canary archipelago (1999–2030)

“…With regar to The application of the MCDM to MSW management problems, the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and the analytic network process (ANP) must be highlighted, e.g. Tascione et al (2016) applied multiobjective linear programming as a tool to define the best scenario to find an optimal waste management system. Vučijak et al (2015) used of multicriteria decision-making tools to select the best waste management for Bosnia and Herzegovina.…”

SWIMS: A dynamic life cycle-based optimisation and decision support tool for solid waste management

“…OptiWaste is a LCA-based SWM optimisation model based on linear programming that enables optimisation for multiple criteria using weighting factors (Münster et al, 2015). Two models based on linear programming (single and multi-objective) and the integrated use of LCA data were developed and applied by Tascione et al (2016) to optimise the environmental performance of waste management systems in the Abruzzo region, Italy. These tools demonstrate that it is feasible and potentially valuable to decision makers to develop optimisation models based on the LCA framework.…”
