In the era of increasing environmental awareness, the importance of efficient waste management cannot be overstated. Cardboard stands out among the many materials contributing to waste generation. With proper cardboard collection and recycling practices, one can make a significant difference and lead the way towards a more sustainable future. In this regard, this article attempts to configure an integrated green non-linear transportation system with circular economy approach to mitigate the negative effect of corrugated waste on social, economic and environmental sites. This non-linear transportation system aims to optimize objectives including overall transport expenditure, carbon footprints and travel time. One sub model is further developed from the proposed model by disuniting the effect of the circular economy. Here, to depict the uncertainty time sequential Fermatean bipolar hesitant fuzzy set theory is devised along with its all-dimensional aspects. The suggested transportation system is addressed by employing two approaches, weighted sum approach and global criterion methodology. Additionally, a case study is conducted to elaborate on the relevance of the devised model for sustainable management of corrugated waste. The results show that global criterion approach produces better results when three objectives are optimally valued as [Formula: see text]. The results indicate that the integration of circular economy into a supply chain model brings sustainability and reduces the ecological and human hazards associated with it. Finally, there is a sensitivity analysis, management insights, and a conclusion with limitations and future plans.
在环保意识日益增强的时代，高效的废物管理至关重要。在造成废物产生的众多材料中，纸板尤为突出。通过适当的纸板收集和回收利用措施，人们可以产生重大影响，并引领迈向更可持续未来的道路。在这方面，本文试图构建一个采用循环经济方法的综合绿色非线性运输系统，以减轻瓦楞纸废物对社会、经济和环境场所的负面影响。这个非线性运输系统旨在优化包括总体运输支出、碳足迹和出行时间等目标。通过分离循环经济的影响，从所提出的模型中进一步开发了一个子模型。在此，为描述不确定时间序列，设计了费马双极犹豫模糊集理论及其所有维度方面。采用加权和方法和全局准则方法这两种方法来处理所建议的运输系统。此外，还进行了一个案例研究，以阐述所设计模型对瓦楞纸废物可持续管理的相关性。结果表明，当三个目标最优值为[公式：见文本]时，全局准则方法产生更好的结果。结果表明，将循环经济融入供应链模型可带来可持续性，并减少与之相关的生态和人类危害。最后，进行了敏感性分析、管理洞察，并得出了带有局限性和未来计划的结论。
