“…Furthermore, these roadmaps should be integrated into the garbage collection truck system (Gur et al 2015 ). This facilitates workers on path optimization during transportation (Ahlaqqach et al 2019 ). However, many third-party managers do not facilitate proper route maps for waste-collecting personnel, which increases the transportation cost and overall time elapsed by the respective 3PL.…”

After the sudden advent of COVID-19, the amount of medical waste has escalated to a great extent. The incremented medical waste amidst the pandemic exposes the improper waste management system of various developing countries. India, being one of the prominent developing countries, produces the largest waste in the world. Nonetheless, the Indian waste management system is not able to manage the massive amount of waste generated. Henceforth, this research study approaches to reveal the prominent factors which are causing failure in the system of medical waste management in India. This manuscript mainly focuses on two aspects. Firstly, this paper illuminates the factors which are hindering medical waste management by third-party logistics (3PL). Secondly, this study discusses a unique interval-value intuitionistic fuzzy set (IVIFS) based on Decision Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) to depict graphical causal interrelationships among the factors. In addition, the analytic network process (ANP) is utilized to estimate the influence ranking of each factor. The results of this research anticipate that the transportation and disposal-related constraining factors require more attention from 3PL managers. The current study is unique as it enriches the various hindering factors on 3PL BMW management by discussing the ranking and relationship among factors.

“…The study sought to determine the best locations for temporary facilities and the transportation strategies for effective management of medical waste within a considerably short time frame. Ahlaqqach et al (2019) proposed a model for the management of medical waste collectors, with an application to Casablanca, Morocco. The complexity of the multi-objective model, as part of a heterogeneous fleet VRP, was managed through a Ruin and Recreate heuristic.…”

We are currently experiencing a critical period for the prevention and control of the COVID-19 pandemic. COVID-19 related waste is a threat to global public environmental health. Medical waste management during this pandemic is one of the major issues facing public service organizations such as municipalities, which is of great importance in terms of logistics, environment and social aspects. The discussion of logistics operations is related to the collection, transportation and disposal of waste, which imposes high expenses. Many methods have been applied to develop and improve waste management policies in the literature. Apart from these studies, very few researchers have improved vehicle operations in waste management considering environmental aspects and the possibility of outsourcing. In this paper, by examining the gaps in the field, we try to explain and formulate the sustainable medical waste management problem for pandemics. Finally, by designing several practical examples with different scales, we solve the problem using CPLEX solver, compare different conditions and discuss the practical implications using the sensitivity analysis of demand parameter.
