배출자 및 중간처리자 의견을 반영한 건설폐기물 처리 개선방안 중요도 분석

Abstract

최근 건설폐기물 관리 정책은 법적 기준에 중점을 두고 있어 재활용 촉진과 현실적 문제 해결이 미흡하다. 본 연구는 배출자와 중간처리자의 의견을 수집하고, AHP 분석을 통해 환경, 경제, 기술적 요인으로 평가하여 우선순위를 도출하였다. 경제성이 가장 중요한 요인으로 나타났으며, 폐기물 처리 비용 절감과 재활용이 최우선 과제로 분석되었다. 이를 위해 처리 공정의 최적화와 법적 준수 간 격차 해소가 필요하다. 본 연구는 지속 가능한 건설폐기물 관리 방안을 제시하며, 경제적 부담 완화와 환경 책임 강화에 기여할 것이다.

Recent policies on environmentally friendly construction waste management emphasize legal compliance over proactive waste reduction and recycling. To address this issue, this study gathered insights from stakeholders involved in construction waste disposal, including contractors and intermediate processors, using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to identify and prioritize improvement strategies. A combination of literature review and expert interviews led to the identification of 15 evaluation criteria grouped into three key factors: environmental, economic, and technological. Among these, economic factors emerged as the most significant, with reducing waste disposal costs at construction sites ranked as the top priority. Alternatives such as waste reduction, reuse, recycling, landfill, and incineration were assessed, with recycling identified as the most critical strategy. The findings emphasize the need to balance stakeholders' economic interests with long-term investments in environmentally friendly technologies. Practical recommendations include optimizing disposal processes, incentivizing recycling efforts, and developing supportive policies to bridge the gap between legal compliance and effective environmental action. Advancing technologies for waste sorting and processing is also essential for improving management efficiency. This study provides a comprehensive framework for sustainable construction waste management policies and practical applications. The results aim to reduce economic burdens, enhance environmental responsibility, and build social trust within the construction industry. By aligning economic incentives with environmental objectives, the research contributes to establishing a sustainable resource cycle and addressing the critical need for better construction waste management practices.
