Micro Location of a Recycling Plant for Multilayered Packaging in The State of Tlaxcala, Through the Delphi and AHP Techniques

The recycling of multilayer containers has enormous potential in Mexico, due to the fact that, on the one hand, there is currently a high percentage of waste from it and, on the other hand, the product obtained as a result of this process is cellulose, which has an attractive level of demand for the practice of recycling in general. Another singular fact is the fact that the State of Tlaxcala has a privileged location for the establishment of production plants of different types and the recycling of multilayer containers is no exception, for which reason it has been proposed to establish a plant in the state of Tlaxcala, having the task of defining where in the State to establish the plant. This article deals with a proposal for the micro location of a multilayer packaging recycling plant in the State of Tlaxcala. This proposal is based on two techniques used to establish the micro location. These techniques are the Delphi technique, accompanied by the methodology for decision-making called the analytic hierarchy and analytic network processes for the measurement of intangible criteria and for decision-making (AHP), which are combined to achieve the stated objective.
