Abstract

Logistics Management for Post-Sale Waste Recycling of Enterprise Products is very important in Taiwan. When recycling of waste resources of the six special municipalities cannot be managed effectively, ecological environment in supply chain will be harmed and body health of the public will be affected. Nowadays, enterprises attach great importance to ESG (Environment, Society and Governance). Hence, evaluating management situation of the six special municipalities over influence of major wastes resource recycling on ecological environment and the public's health will be helpful for regulators of Taiwan environment protection agencies to work out future strategies for the six special municipalities to manage influence of all waste resource recycling on ecological environment and health of the public. VlseKriterijumska Optimizacija I Kompromisno Resenje (VIKOR) method, and link linear regression analysis method and grey prediction model, as well as dynamic waste recycling quantity management method were adopted to predict predictive value of Taiwan’s six special municipalities’ waste recycling quantity in advance and generate predicted results of management evaluation. Good effects were achieved in predicting and pre-warning evaluation in the research by applying VIKOR method and link linear regression analysis method and grey prediction model. The predicted ranking of the six special municipalities’ waste recycling quantity management is 100% consistent with the actual values of the management ranking situation of the six special municipalities. The reason for accurately predicting and knowing the resource recycling ranking of the six cities is that the state can know the resource recycling capacity of the six cities in advance and allocate recycling personnel and equipment to them.
