Solid Municipal Waste

The paper presented describes an original technique for decision making regarding solidwaste management systems design including the process of choice for its complexity, locationand economic aspects as well as the multi criterion model for energy recovery of waste. Themathematical model is worked out for the process of decision making upon the system andprocess design which makes it to a certain extend a universal solution. The study of theeconomic and environmental aspects of the energy recovery of waste is also provided in thepaper. It includes analysis of the investments' effectiveness based on certain indexes. In thispart again the original formulas are used for calculation and providing the data for decisionmaking upon the expenditures needed.

Selection Of

The problem of allocation of solid municipal waste (SMW) disposal objects is extremely acute for Russia. The complexity of such tasks is primarily due to their interdisciplinarity, i.e., a significant amount of social, economic and technical data and environmental information to be taken into account. In many countries, multi-criteria methods have been used for this purpose, which have proved their effectiveness, making it possible to work out a compromise and objective solution. The methods of T.L. Saaty - analysis of hierarchies (AHP) - and analysis of networks (ANP) are considered, as well as the examples of their use for choosing sites for landfills and waste incinerator plants.

Three Stages

The represented paper describes an original scenario for the landfill construction including the process of decision making upon its location and economic aspects. The landfill should become a solution for the number of environmental problems as it will result: • land remediation; • the cut up in amount of illegal dump areas in the region; • in the future-creation of a waste sorting plant on the recultivated land; • other improvements. In the paper the process of decision making upon the location includes three stages and is based on expert analysis of the alternatives using six main criteria. The stages are the following: collection and organizing of the data; development of recommendations; the decision upon the location itself and its fulfillment. The mathematic model is worked out for all the stages which makes it to a certain extend an universal solution. The study of the economic aspects of the landfill construction is also provided in the paper. It includes analysis of the investment's effectiveness based on certain indexes such as: • financial effectiveness; • state budget effectiveness; • social effectiveness; • environmental effectiveness;  • other. In this part again the original formulas are used for calculation and providing the data for decision making upon the investment needed.

Critical Overview

The tourism industry is one of the fastest-growing industries today, and it is important to obtain insights into its good and bad practices. This will provide policymakers with as much information as possible to tailor specific policies to facilitate tourism and economic growth. The main purpose of this paper is a critical overview of the related research on the topic of evaluating sustainable tourism in European countries and extensive empirical research on achieving sustainable tourism. This research includes Grey Systems Theory (GST) as the main tool in evaluating the efficiency of sustainable tourism. Robustness checking is done via the multiple criteria decision making (MCDM) approach. Although the literature on tourism efficiency is vast, there is a smaller amount of research related to the approach taken in this paper. Thus, a comprehensive and insightful analysis will be done so that relevant and timely information can be obtained for the future decision-making process. Furthermore, a dynamic analysis will be provided so that changes in time can be observed and a detailed analysis can be made.
