Abstract
mproved waste stream management will play an ever increasing role among possible
energy sources in the future. This paper analyses a waste company situated in Western
Austria. Currently a considerable amount of waste is sent to a waste incineration plant.
Costs thereby incurred have to be borne by the company. On the other hand heat is
required, mainly for waste drying. Therefore an optimal network with an improved
internal use of available materials should be generated. Within an economic
optimization carried out by the P-graph method (Friedler et al., 1995; Halasz et al.,
2005, Friedler, 2010) this network is developed. The results offer a wide range of future
scenarios for the waste company, which could enhance the existing process; both from
an economical and ecological point of view.
