The proposed scheme divides whole integrated waste management
system into four different parts (shown in Fig. 1). (i) Collection
of segregated solid waste from various sources (households,
markets, offices and institutes) and conveyed waste to the nearest
collection centre; (ii) transfer accumulate solid waste from
collection centre to the adjoining transfer station; (iii) transportthe segregated solid waste from the transfer station to nearby
categorized waste processing plant; (iv) transfer the produced
waste from processing plant to the nearest landfill site. Each part
contents huge amount of cost for waste collection or waste material
transportation. The proposed scheme optimizes transportation
cost of each part of the system. Therefore, the total waste management
cost for the whole system is optimized. The optimization process
for each waste management part is described in Fig. 1.
