dc.description.abstractThis study is carried out in order to evaluate the disposal techniques of medical wastes, which contain various viruses, bacteria, microorganisms and have negative effects on both the environment and human health. Within the scope of the study, a multi-criteria decision-making model consisting of medical wastes and disposal techniques have been proposed and this model has been solved with a two-stage methodology. In the first stage of the solution, medical wastes have been prioritized with the ENTROPY method, and in the second stage alternative disposal techniques have been evaluated with the WASPAS and EDAS methods. According to ENTROPY method, it was found that the most important medical waste generated as a result of the processes in health institutions was Radioactive waste with an importance weight of 0.1751. This medical waste was followed by Amalgam waste and Chemical waste medical wastes with the importance weights of 0.1478 and 0.1408, respectively. After these findings, alternative disposal techniques have been evaluated with the WASPAS and EDAS methods. According to WASPAS method results the Mechanical operations technique was found to be the most appropriate technique for the disposal of medical wastes in the proposed model with 0.7761 relative importance value. This alternative technique was followed by Irridation methods and Sterilization techniques, respectively. In addition, according to the results of the EDAS method, it was determined that the mechanical processes technique was the most suitable disposal technique with a value of 0.9328. According to the research results obtained with both methods, the ranking of medical waste disposal techniques was obtained as the same.
