“…Furthermore, for the evaluation of the green performance of the airports, the hybrid BWM-VIKOR approach has been used (Kumar, A, and Gupta 2020). Fuzzy VIKOR has been also used in combination with Modified-Safety Improve Risk Assessment (Modified-SIRA) for environmental assessment of E-waste management in the context of a developing country (Hameed et al 2020 ). Further studies on fuzzy VIKOR and its application in waste management include (Kabir 2015; Utrillas, et al 2015 ; Gündoğdu et al 2019 ).…”

“…A lot of documentaries from tv and videos channels, besides news sites, books, and scientific articles have been show the negative effects of nonconventional and rudimentary methods to recycle metals from e-waste. These informal activities are considered dangerous because to generate large amounts of residues containing extremely toxic metals and organic chemical pollutants that cause serious health problems and dramatically decrease the life expectancy of the population, mainly around contaminated areas near e-waste (Sthiannopkao, 2013;Bradley, 2014;Lecher, 2019;Bazilian, 2020;Hameed, 2020). This informal subsistence economy is the only source income a lot of populations located in some areas of many countries such as: Ghana (Buzuev, 2015), Nigeria (Nnorom and Osibanjo, 2008), India (Borthakur and Singh, 2012), Pakistan (Iqbal et al, 2017), Philippines, Indonesia, Vietnam (Youshida et al, 2016), Mexico (Cruz-Sotelo et al, 2017), Malaysia (Suja et al, 2014), Hong Kong (Bhattacharya, 2017), and several other parts of the world, mainly in poor and developing countries (Maphosa et al, 2017).…”
