Model proposals for the optimization and calculation of the environmental impact of municipal solid waste collection routes

Résumé fourni par la source

Abstract In the context of municipal solid waste collection, with the aim to obtain a sustainable service, the present work aims to provide some models for calculating the CO2eq emitted by a fleet of vehicles. The existing literature about vehicle emissions and the bi-objective routing problem were analysed. Results adaptable to the scenario of municipal solid waste collection were searched and then applied to a software of management systems of waste collection previously developed. The research carried out shows how it is possible to calculate, for different scales of detail, the punctual emissions of the collection service, and optimize them, applying the criterion of least environmental impact to a routing algorithm.
