Abstract
This paper manages to develop a chance constrained fractional modeling of the waste management taking systems sustainability indices into consideration. Due to the fact that there are some approaches for dealing with the city waste management, but the use of the one that has big positive impacts on the economic and social dimensions of sustainability and least impacts on the environmental side of the problem might of the most concern. To deal with this issue, related city engineers and managers are asked to present their ideas on this problem by filling a questionnaire. Author takes these view point into consideration and then by using fuzzy TOPSIS as a decision making tool for ranking the strategies proposed to city engineers and then those strategies with the highest ranking and implementable in our city was employed for continuation of this study. Once appropriate strategies with sustainability consideration are determined, a stochastic programming model is proposed and a linearization technique was recommended to solve that. A sample case problem is used for presentation purposes.
