Abstract
The utilization of poultry waste could mitigate environment damage and generate organic fertilizer and energy. However, the resource utilization of poultry waste is currently confronted with formidable challenges. To facilitate the resource utilization of poultry waste and enhance the sustainable development of the industry, this study integrates the PESTEL and FCM (fuzzy cognitive map) methods to established a hybrid model to analyze the influence of factors on the system, and employs the fuzzy cognitive map to conduct dynamic reasoning research on the system. The results demonstrate that the indegree of S3 is the greatest at 6.598, suggesting that S3 is more likely influenced. The outdegree of P3 is the highest at 3.5, indicating that the factor of system P3 is dynamic and is likely to exert an impact on the system. The top 5 factors in terms of centrality are the breeding behavior characteristics of farmers (S3), the cost of resource utilization (EC4), the convenience of poultry waste utilization (S2), the incentive policies (P3), and financial market tools (EC3), with their centralities being 7.852, 6.42, 6.098, 4.051, and 3.646 respectively. These factors are the most prominent ones impeding the resource utilization of poultry waste. Eventually, this study proposes relevant policy recommendations to facilitate the resource utilization of poultry waste.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology (IJEST) is an international scholarly refereed research journal which aims to promote the theory and practice of environmental science and technology, innovation, engineering and management.
A broad outline of the journal''s scope includes: peer reviewed original research articles, case and technical reports, reviews and analyses papers, short communications and notes to the editor, in interdisciplinary information on the practice and status of research in environmental science and technology, both natural and man made.
The main aspects of research areas include, but are not exclusive to; environmental chemistry and biology, environments pollution control and abatement technology, transport and fate of pollutants in the environment, concentrations and dispersion of wastes in air, water, and soil, point and non-point sources pollution, heavy metals and organic compounds in the environment, atmospheric pollutants and trace gases, solid and hazardous waste management; soil biodegradation and bioremediation of contaminated sites; environmental impact assessment, industrial ecology, ecological and human risk assessment; improved energy management and auditing efficiency and environmental standards and criteria.
