Abstract

Sustainable management of municipal solid waste (MSW) is the utmost challenge for the environment to achieve sustainable development goals (SDGs). In Aligarh, there exist inadequate and ineffective practices, along with a lack of proper disposal of municipal solid waste. The microwave conversion may be a viable solution for Jamalpur due to its positive environmental impact, and ability to produce biodiesel and fertilizer. The municipal solid waste authorities may collect the waste and use 3R technology for sorting, segregation, and storage of waste and its transportation through IoT. The findings and recommendations are particularly fit for Aligarh and may be applicable, to similar challenges faced by low and middle-income cities. The data were supported by surveys conducted with residents and previous studies. Based on the results, municipal solid waste management conversion into biodiesel through microwave yields 98.5% as compared to traditional techniques. The results demonstrated that using municipal solid waste as a feedstock may play an essential role in the production of biodiesel through a circular economy. The integration of MSW into the sustainable production of bio-diesel using a circular economy has significantly proved to be beneficial for the environment. The total profit with optimal solutions is found for biodiesel production by using Algorithm and Mathematica 9.0 software. The objective is to optimize total profit, and energy usage and minimize waste with consideration of the new vendor model application. The Kuhn-Tucker solution approach is used to solve the model under the Stackelberg strategy to get the optimal value. A greener biodiesel microwave production system gets more profit and produces less waste than the conventional systems that are validated through a case study of (Jamalpur), Aligarh.
