Resumen:
The municipal solid waste system is a complex reverse logistic chain which comprises several optimisation problems. Although these problems are interdependent – i.e., the solution to one of the problems restricts the solution to the other – they are usually solved sequentially in the related literature because each is usually a computationally complex problem. We address two of the tactical planning problems in this chain by means of a Benders decomposition approach: determining the location and/or capacity of garbage accumulationpoints, and the design and schedule of collection routes for vehicles. Our approach manages to solve medium-sized real-world instances in the city of Bahía Blanca, Argentina, showing smaller computing times than solving a full MIP model.
