摘要: Abstract In Australia, the National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme (NTCRS) considers only waste televisions, computers, printers, IT peripherals as e-waste. This study utilizes a combined Delphi-AHP approach to identify potential candidate products that are outside of scheme. Besides, implementing traditional AHP method, this employed an AHP-rating model minimize computation time in approach. The results reveal seven evaluation criteria crucial for product selection. From 47 initially selected products, 22 identified priority products. Sensitivity analysis was performed based on different weighting criteria. Potential future activities need be by policymakers issue also discussed light circular economy environmental protection. will help academics performing approach, subsequently, rating selecting/prioritizing alternatives focused multi-criteria decision-making problems.
