Abstract

In the past 20 years, municipal solid waste policies have changed in response to societal and environmental changes. Municipal solid waste policies in many countries become more complicated and numerous. This paper reviews several models developed to support decision making in the area of municipal solid waste management (MSWM). It has been discovered that many modern decision-making support systems are already partially considering social factor analysis in addition to expenses and benefits, environmental effects, technical issues, and management aspects. However, questions are raised as to whether these analyses are sufficient and whether they can predict future possible impacts.
