Abstract
Presented here is the axiomatic foundation of a model-generating framework for formulating location–allocation models in the field of integrated regional solid waste management. Data requirements are standardized, a generalized network objective function is developed and a set of potential constraint menu is compiled. Along the framework development, many local peculiarities are considered; resulting mixed-integer, linear models are solvable by exact or heuristic algorithms. These models are adaptable to each criterion of a customized set, thus supporting multicriterial analysis.
