Genetic Algorithms for Municipal Solid Waste Collection and Routing Optimization
In the present paper, the Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used for the identification of optimal routes in the case of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW) collection. The identification of a route for MSW collection trucks is critical since it has been estimated that, of the total amount of money spent for the collection, transportation, and disposal of solid waste, approximately 60-80% is spent on the colle...
متن کاملPerformance assessment for municipal solid waste collection in Taiwan.
Collecting municipal solid waste (MSW) is a major and expensive task for local waste management authorities, thus efficient MSW collection is a necessity. This study presents a procedure for developing an aggregate indicator (AI) to assess MSW collection efficiency based on multiple factors. The applicabilities of various key performance indicators (KPIs) are evaluated based on five selection c...
متن کاملSubregion districting analysis for municipal solid waste collection privatization.
Privatization of municipal solid waste (MSW) collection can improve service quality and reduce cost. To reduce the risk of an incapable company serving an entire collection area and to establish a competitive market, a large collection area should be divided into two or more subregions, with each subregion served by a different company. The MSW subregion districting is generally done manually, ...
متن کاملA Heuristic Model for Municipal Solid Waste Collection Vehicle Routing
Appropriate vehicle routing is critical for collecting municipal solid waste (MSW) efficiently. Conventional empirical routing is not easily altered in response to rapidly changing waste management plans and generation. An enhanced model is proposed herein to solve a MSW collection routing problem involving a homogenous fleet. A minimum cost flow method is applied to pre-process the original co...
