Routing Assignment – A Special Waste Collection Problem This report analyses the routing problem for a security waste transport company. It looks at processes undertaken in order to identify the best route for the vehicle to take each day taking into account the capacity of the vehicle. To start the process I needed to identify where location of lab 20 was on the map. The last four digits of my student id is 1290 therefore the coordinates for lab 20 is (12‚9).

requires a huge amount of electricity which is provided by hydroelectric plants thus affecting our natural river and lake ecosystem and forests. Papers are made by cutting millions of trees which destructs the natural environment and forest. So don’t waste the paper and put them into the recycle bin. Recent progress has been seen in plastic recycling (Al-Salem‚ Lettieri and Baeyens‚ 2009). Technological sciences are working on recycling on food packaging materials (Arvanitoyannis and Bosnea‚ 2001).
