Abstract This study contributes to identifying a valid and reliable set of barriers to sustainable solid waste management framework rooted in society 5.0 perspectives in Taiwan. In nature, the hierarchical structure is with the causal interrelationships under uncertainties. The perspective empowers the creation of a new biosphere based on technological progress, but in the sustainable solid waste management field, it is difficult to encounter and shape the systematized processes due to barriers and challenges. To address this shortcoming, this study evaluates the technical challenges faced in the field of sustainable solid waste management toward society 5.0. The valid attributes are usually described the qualitative information. The fuzzy Delphi method is applied to acquire the valid and reliable attributes. Fuzzy decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory experiment is to visualize the causal interrelationships among the attributes. Choquet integral with respect to the nonadditive attributes over the valid set provides an overall perspective function. The results establish an understanding of sustainable solid waste management barriers in the perspectives under uncertainties. Community uncertainty, policy and regulation problems, city architecture, and technology interaction are the factors that influence sustainable performance. In practices, (1) diverse disciplines and sectors in local, national, and global communities, (2) a lack of mobility and reliability, (3) mass production and mass consumption, (4) an insufficient level of artificial intelligence application, and (5) failures related to data management and security hinder the improvement of sustainable solid waste management toward society 5.0.

Barriers And Challenges

The rapid industrialization, continuous economic development, as well as increasing urban population and peoples living standards in Urumqi have resulted in a great increase of the total generated amount of municipal solid waste (MSW). Urumqi government strives to improve its municipal solid waste management (MSWM), and the MSW safe disposal rate was already up to 92.9% in 2011. This study presents an detailed overview on current MSWM practice in Urumqi municipality, including MSW characteristics and current status of MSW generation, collection, transportation and final disposal. It shows that more than 80% of MSW was final disposed by landfill and current landfill based MSWM system lack of effectiveness and efficiency. The major barriers and challenges that inhibit effective and efficient MSWM are imperfectness and inefficient enforcement of relevant policies, inappropriate waste treatment fee system, backward technology, insufficient public education and participation, as well as lack of fundamental research. Finally, to overcome such barriers, we propose a detailed integrated MSWM system to facilitate MSWM in Urumqi.

Municipal Solid Waste Management

Abstract The rapid and uncontrolled growth of the world's population technological developments, increase in the social welfare and the transformation of societies into consumer societies have changed the dimensions of environmental problems. Nowadays waste management has become an important issue for the solution of environmental problems. Hence, we discussed the municipal solid waste management. Municipal solid waste management problem is a complex and it has many different aspects as political, social, technological and economical criteria have to consider. The evaluation of these criteria numerically is complicated and vague. This paper deals with this complexity by proposed methodology. Also the contribution of the article to the literature is that the proposed methodology is applied for the first time in municipal solid waste management problems. In this paper two fuzzy decision making approaches are combined for sitting a waste to energy plant in the Kırıkkale in Turkey. Four alternative locations and nine criteria are defined from the expert opinions and the literature survey. A new hybrid methodology that has not been applied before for this decision problem is proposed. In proposed methodology, there are two main stages. Criteria weights determination is the first stage and ranking of the alternative locations is the second stage of the methodology. In first stage Interval type 2 Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy process (AHP) method is performed and in the second stage hesitant fuzzy Technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) method is used for ranking the alternative locations. Also decision makers have different experience level and knowledge about the problem and different decision makers’ weights are considered for group decision making. Two fuzzy methods are combined for the solid waste energy production plant location selection problem. As a result of the study, the second alternative (Bahsılı-Bedesten) is determined as the most suitable area for waste to energy production plant. Besides, with scenario analysis the effect of criteria on ranking of the alternatives is analyzed.
