Abstract

Food waste management performed in accordance with the EU Circular Economy Strategy principles poses a problem to small islands. There are several standard food waste management methods on islands; however, there are also two specific methods which have to be taken into consideration as well as all positive and negative impacts. These two specific methods are: food waste discharge into the city sewer system and transport to the mainland, i.e. to regional waste processing facilities. In this paper a multi-criteria decision analysis is presented to evaluate different waste management options and their applicability in small islands as it is Vis. The results of this study show that the solution in which food waste is discharged into the city sewer system and processed with wastewater through wastewater treatment turned out to be best food waste treatment option for small islands. The used PROMETHEE method has proved to be very useful tool in solving the problem.
