Purpose Selecting the most appropriate healthcare waste treatment technology (HCWTT) is an uncertain and complex decision-making problem because there exist more than one alternative and many conflicting qualitative and quantitative criteria. However, the use of fuzzy and comparative values, instead of specific crisp values, provides more accurate results, so that the alternatives may be evaluated in accordance with hesitant human nature. The purpose of this paper is to select the best HCWTT using a hesitant fuzzy linguistic term set (HFLTS). Design/methodology/approach Five main criteria were identified for HCWTT selection, such as economic, social, environmental, technical and ergonomic criteria. In total, 19 sub-criteria were examined, and the hierarchy of the criteria was formed. The criteria weights were determined using the multi-criteria hesitant fuzzy linguistic term set (MC-HFLTS). The selection processes of incineration (A1), steam sterilization (A2), microwave (A3) and landfill (A4) alternatives were carried out using the multi-attributive ideal-real comparative analysis (MAIRCA) and multi-attributive border approximation area comparison (MABAC) methods. In the comparative analyses, Vise Kriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) and technique for order preference by similarity to an ideal solution (TOPSIS) methods were used. Findings The comparison of the results of the MABAC and MAIRCA methods with the results of VIKOR and TOPSIS methods indicated that A2 (steam sterilization) alternative was the best one and produced the same ranking of the technology alternatives (A2 > A3 > A1 > A4). As a result, the study concluded that these methods can be successfully used for HCWTT selection problems. Originality/value To the best of the authors’ knowledge, MC-HFLTS has not been used to select HCWTT in the existing literature. For the first time, MC-HFLTS&MAIRCA and MC-HFLTS&MABAC approaches were used in order to choose the best treatment method for healthcare waste under the effect of multiple conflicting hierarchical criteria. It has been provided that MABAC and MAIRCA select alternative choices by taking into consideration the hierarchical criteria. Unlike other studies, this study also considered ergonomic criteria that are important for people working during the process of using the treatment technology.

基于MC-HFLTS的新集成方法用于医疗废物处理技术的选择

目的选择最合适的医疗废物处理技术(HCWTT)是一个不确定且复杂的决策问题,因为存在不止一种选择,而且定性和定量标准相互矛盾。但是,使用模糊和比较值而不是特定的清晰值会提供更准确的结果,因此可以根据犹豫的人性来评估替代方案。本文的目的是使用犹豫的模糊语言术语集(HFLTS)选择最佳的HCWTT。设计/方法/方法确定了选择HCWTT的五个主要标准,例如经济,社会,环境,技术和人体工程学标准。总共检查了19个子标准,并形成了标准的层次结构。使用多准则犹豫模糊语言术语集(MC-HFLTS)确定准则权重。焚化(A1),蒸汽灭菌(A2),微波(A3)和垃圾填埋场(A4)的选择过程使用多属性理想-真实比较分析(MAIRCA)和多属性边界近似面积比较( MABAC)方法。在比较分析中,使用了Vise Kriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje(VIKOR)和通过与理想解决方案(TOPSIS)方法相似的顺序偏好技术。研究结果将MABAC和MAIRCA方法的结果与VIKOR和TOPSIS方法的结果进行比较表明,A2(蒸汽灭菌)替代方案是最好的替代方案,并且在技术替代方案方面排名相同(A2> A3> A1> A4) 。结果,研究得出结论,这些方法可成功用于HCWTT选择问题。原创性/价值据作者所知,在现有文献中尚未使用MC-HFLTS来选择HCWTT。首次使用MC-HFLTS&MAIRCA和MC-HFLTS&MABAC方法来选择在多个相互冲突的分级标准的影响下医疗废物的最佳处理方法。已经提供了MABAC和MAIRCA通过考虑层次标准来选择替代选择。与其他研究不同,该研究还考虑了人体工程学标准,这对于在使用治疗技术的过程中工作的人们而言非常重要。原创性/价值据作者所知,在现有文献中尚未使用MC-HFLTS来选择HCWTT。首次使用MC-HFLTS&MAIRCA和MC-HFLTS&MABAC方法来选择在多个相互冲突的分级标准的影响下医疗废物的最佳处理方法。已经提供了MABAC和MAIRCA通过考虑层次标准来选择替代选择。与其他研究不同,该研究还考虑了人体工程学标准,这对于在使用治疗技术的过程中工作的人们很重要。原创性/价值据作者所知,在现有文献中尚未使用MC-HFLTS来选择HCWTT。首次使用MC-HFLTS&MAIRCA和MC-HFLTS&MABAC方法来选择在多个相互冲突的分级标准的影响下医疗废物的最佳处理方法。已经提供了MABAC和MAIRCA通过考虑层次标准来选择替代选择。与其他研究不同,该研究还考虑了人体工程学标准,这对于在使用治疗技术的过程中工作的人们很重要。使用MABAC方法是为了在多重冲突的等级标准的影响下选择最佳的医疗废物处理方法。已经提供了MABAC和MAIRCA通过考虑层次标准来选择替代选择。与其他研究不同,该研究还考虑了人体工程学标准,这对于在使用治疗技术的过程中工作的人们而言非常重要。使用MABAC方法是为了在多重冲突的等级标准的影响下选择最佳的医疗废物处理方法。已经提供了MABAC和MAIRCA通过考虑层次标准来选择替代选择。与其他研究不同,该研究还考虑了人体工程学标准,这对于在使用治疗技术的过程中工作的人们而言非常重要。
