Abstract:
This research and development aimed to 1) study the waste management situation and waste management inspection at the source in Thailand, foreign countries and Eastern Economic Corridor (EEC), 2) develop of municipal waste management inspection system at the source in EEC and 3) study the efficiency of the system. There were three phases: Situation study phase involved systematic review, meta-analysis and situation analysis in EEC. There were two sample groups: 1) Research reports that were published in 2010 - 2019 and 2) Key informants of 8 municipalities, totaling 75 people. System development phase involved drafting of the system, confirming the system, defining strategies and developing into a system application. The samples were the key informants in the situational studies. In the study of the efficiency of the system, the sample group comprised of 6 specialists and 30 users (inspectors). The tools were used to collect data through quality testing consisted of research report selection form, research quality assessment form, research synthetic form, checklist, questionnaires and efficiency evaluation form. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, meta-analysis and content analysis. The results found that seven researches conducted in Thailand were to study the waste situation, model development and key success factors. In contrast, nine researches conducted in foreign countries were subjected to turn law and policy into practice and create awareness. A meta-analysis based on 16 research reports showed that the respiratory disease incidence was found among garbage collectors at the significant level of 26.2 percentage, back pain incidence was found among municipal waste worker at the significant level of 67.2 percentage (p<0.00), and there were 21 items in the EEC waste management. The inspection ช system of municipal waste management at the source in the EEC includes the input that were 10 factors of community and municipality context: population, area size, number of communities, number of latent populations, quantity of waste, type of waste, community variation, 4M readiness, population movement problems and waste management problems at the border. The process was the management of municipal waste at the source, consisted of three components, the reduction of the amount of municipal waste in the amount of 5 items, the separation of the municipal waste in the amount of 9 items, and the collection of the municipal waste in the number of 7 items. The output were: municipal waste management options at the source, including 1) to continue, 2) to more than, and 3) municipalities to do better than alternative proposals. Development of a web application using PDCA processes were, Plan: preparation of data, Do: algorithm testing and modeling, Check: validation by experts and users, Act: modify, and finally, follow the instructions and develop the application "WEECA". As a result of the system development strategy, 13 strategies were obtained. The efficiency of the system by experts and users (inspectors) was found to be at the highest level (more than 80% of the average) to be used in municipal waste management planning for the municipality.
