Development of the Optimal Logistics System for Organic Recycling

Abstract

Abstract Along with the socio-economic development, the generation of solid waste in Vietnam is increasing, becoming an environmental problem. The amount of domestic solid waste generated in Vietnam is currently about 25.5 million tons/year, and is expected to increase on average by 10-15% per year due to rapid population growth, combined with the process of industrialization and urbanization. However, the collection and treatment system of solid waste is still a dilemma. Domestic solid waste management is still treated in traditional ways such as incineration and landfill, causing many harms to the environment. The Optimal Logistic System for Organic Recycling study aims to develop an IoT integrated Logistics system, called LogiOT system, to promote the circular economy model in Vietnam, and proposes a plan to combine waste segregation and utilization of domestic organic wastes as food for worm farming sites to produce organic fertilizers, will reduce CO2 emissions in greenhouse gas emission, contributing to the promotion of model development Circular economy in Vietnam helps to make the environment greener and cleaner. In addition, the logistics model is proposed to solve the problem of the collection system of waste from households, as well as the distribution of organic solid waste to worm farms and distribution of organic fertilizers to the vegetable gardens appropriately, optimizing the cost of the transportation as well as balancing the amount of organic solid waste distributed and the amount required by the garden owners and the amount of solid waste discharged.
