Understanding of the inefficiency of waste transportation is needed in order to take substantial measures necessary to establish material recovery systems for demolition and construction wastes over a wide area. We made a flow model that can estimate flows of such wastes between cities and towns. This model uses an algorithm based on the assumption that waste flow is controlled by spatial distribution factors, including the amount of waste discharged, the intermediate treatment capacity and the road distance between two points in the Kanto region. In addition, we developed spatial and quantitative indicators of regional waste imbalances caused by facility distribution. We suggest ways to apply these indicators to decision-making processes from the perspectives of material recovery promotion and improper waste disposal prevention.
