Sustainable decision-making model based on Analytic Hierarchy Process and SWOT Analysis: "S-AHP" Model

Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) is developing fast and spreading over every part of modern life. EEE include different substances that may cause serious damage to the environment and have adverse effects on human health so it is essential to manage the waste (WEEE) resulting from EEE properly. In the present study a systematic and strategic multi criteria method based on AHP and SWOT Analysis is proposed in order to identify a decision making model to improve the environmental sustainability of WEEE. In detail, the aim of the proposed model is to identify the critical factors in order to measure the “degree” of environmental sustainability of WEEE using a multicriteria model. The study is based on the consideration that for the improvement of the management of WEEE is essential to ensure the minimum efficiency levels. These levels can be evaluated from different points of view, but it is essential to involve all actors and stakeholders.
