“…However, these methods only treat a small part of the actual amount of urban waste. Currently, Vietnam still mainly treats urban waste by two methods: burial and incineration (Nguyen et al, 2020). Landfilling is one of the traditional methods, which is very popular in Vietnam (Thai, 2014;Schneider, 2017).…”

“…Incineration is a fairly common waste treatment method in Vietnam (Thai, 2014;Nguyen et al, 2020). According to the State of the Environment Report 2019 of the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Vietnam has 381 incinerators, of which 294 have a capacity of over 300 kg/h and can fully meet the requirements of the Technical Regulations.…”

“…It can be said that in Vietnam, urban waste is usually treated by main methods including landfilling; recycled as organic fertilizer; burn and destroy; burning to generate electricity; gasification; recycling, reuse and other methods. In which, the methods of recycling as organic fertilizer, burning for power generation, gasification, recycling and reuse are methods of urban waste treatment applied according to the circular economy model (Nguyen et al, 2020).…”

In order to effectively implement the circular economy model, we need to address the core issue of waste management. This is the step to put the waste back into the cycle instead of disposing in the traditional way. As the world economy is rapidly growing, many aspects may pose as challenges, especially urbanization, industrialization, and population growth, and urban waste treatment. Poor management of urban waste can cause many consequences for the environment, people's health and thus affect the whole economy. Therefore, urban waste management according to the circular economy model is an important step. Indeed, it requires close attention and proper implementation to be able to complete the circular cycle of the economy while also effectively solving the problem of urban waste. This paper studies the theoretical foundations for assessing the practicality of urban waste management based on the circular economy model in Singapore, through analyzing the current conditions of Vietnam. This paper collects and analyzes relevant documents and data to synthesize and evaluate the actual situations in Singapore and Vietnam. The objective is to provide lessons for Vietnam in constructing the effective management of urban waste according to the circular economy model.

“…[39][40][41][42] In general, FWTT selection requires a comprehensive analysis of policy planning, country's GDP, waste collection, transparency index, availability of appropriate technology, people's awareness of sustainability, and so on, in which copious potential technology alternatives are analyzed. 43 Hence, it can be believed that the selection of suitable FWTT is a complex decision-making process by means of a range of criteria. MCDM approaches are well utilized to serve this purpose.…”

Uncertainty is often occurred in real-life decision-making problems due to the lack of complete information, imprecise data, and the vagueness of decision making experts in qualitative judgment, thus, the crisp values of criteria may be insufficient to handle such types of complex real situations. As the extension of fuzzy set, intuitionistic fuzzy set and Pythagorean fuzzy set, the Fermatean Fuzzy Set (FFS) has been demonstrated as a powerful tool to handle the uncertainty arisen in practical decision-making problems. Thus, this study aims to introduce an integrated Fermatean fuzzy information-based decision-making method by combining method based on

“…It is crucial to weigh up the differences between plastic waste and food waste. There are some estimations that the environmental impact caused by food waste is likely to be greater than the impact of plastic pollution [7]. Dr. Felicity Denham, University of Tasmania's Researcher, said while plastics will not break down in landfills, food waste will, but it also produces carbon dioxide and methane, which are dangerous greenhouse gas emissions.…”

Fabricating Starch-Based Bioplastic Reinforced with Bagasse for Food Packaging

et al. 2022

Nowadays, food packaging plastics is one of the largest markets that consume thermoplastics. Regardless, the packaging industry accounts for the majority of plastic waste that is polluting the environment. Furthermore, because petroleum sources are limited and on the verge of depletion, there is a need to develop alternative materials that can perform the same functions as conventional plastics. Hence, many solutions have emerged in the now time being. Biopolymers have demonstrated great potential as green materials, despite their poor market penetration. They can be a very remarkable alternative and moreover possess an outstanding friendliness characteristic. Bioplastics are a critical key player in turning the plastics sector from a wasteful linear economy to a circular economy. Their expanding use will have better impacts, not just in terms of the environment and economy, but also in terms of functionality. This paper has been attempted to accomplish a biopolymer-made out of starch and sugarcane bagasse pulp in the regard of replacing the current standard plastic as packaging material. The results state the fabricated biopolymer of starch and bagasse composite is very prominent to take the lead as packing material of future possibilities for green material adoption. Moreover, the addition of the bagasse enhanced the mechanical property, and the castor oil boosted the flexibility and hence elongation. Through such work of the article, the conclusion of the bio-based film to compete at a superior level with the current plastic film properties in the market is basically proved.
