N2  - Thailand, a developing country in Southeast Asia, has achieved rapid economic growth,  industrialization and urbanization. Many environmental problems especially solid waste as a  consequent of such developments have taken place and become a serious one. Solid wastes  will threaten human health and the environment when improperly disposed. Intermediate  treatment has to be included in the solid waste management system instand of conventional  disposal methods, such as open dumping, which is widely used in all municipalities in  Thailand. To evaluate the economic attractiveness of those, an optimization model is  developed to identify the best option combined with landfill at the given potential locations.  The mathematical model herein is done with the framework of dynamic optimization using  mixed integer programming to achieve such a goal. The most promising alternative, the  concept of expansion unit is employed into the model focusing on municipal solid waste  (MSW) in the region. In this study, the model is applied for the municipal solid waste  management (MSWM) in Nakhon Pathom as a typical Thai city.
