Circular Economy in Waste Management: Network Flow Problem and Recycling Dilemma
Original language description
Recent research on waste management has primarily focused on the circular economy. This concept leads to increasing sustainability by putting emphasis mainly on the reduction of waste production, recycling, and restriction of landfilling. For the European Union, it is anchored in Circular Economy Package by separation and recycling goals. The obligation of member states is to put these goals into local legislation, while its effective implementation can be aided by mathematical programming. The article mainly focuses on the effectivity of sorting waste in sorting lines, which must be done before the following manufacturing of waste into secondary material. The general public awareness about the sorted waste is that all material can be recovered. However, real operations confirm that the return flow of non-recyclable or hardlyrecyclable material increases as the maximum recycling rate is achieved. The goal is to determine dependency of the recycling process on the separation rate, which represents how
