Abstract:

The actual paper provides an overview of the gaps encountered in municipal solid waste management (MSWM) in west region of Romania, respectively poor servicing of MSW collection vehicles, poor state of infrastructure and the lack of adequate funding programs for local authorities. Due to the social environmental debates, problems in waste management have become more and more complex observed the increasing volumes of waste produced during recent decades. The research team identifies new approaches for possible solutions to improve municipal solid waste (MSW) services. Waste management, contrary to practice majority, it is considered an integrator of logistics services were collection, transport, treatment and disposal of waste together needs to be monitored and respect strict regulation. Effectively represents a bridge that establishes connections between chain waste management levels. The research team presents a literature review on multi-criteria decision aiding in waste management problems and developed a framework decision for municipal solid waste management (MSWM). This paper presents an analytical hierarchical process (AHP), decision support tool for municipal solid waste management. namely the research team is trying to obtain possible alternatives based on the AHP method. The research team has managed to achieve a list of alternatives that were placed in AHP in order to select the best solution. AHP is used to incorporate the relative importance of different impact categories and treatment plans into the key stakeholders’ preference decision scheme. However, the source of the conflict arises from the key stakeholders and such conflict affects the feasibility of implementing any decision.
