Abstract
In this research, we have developed the BAS software which is based on LCA and LCC as an effective assessment tool for the planning and improvement of municipal waste management system. First, we inquired the municipality for effective uses of the BAS software. Then, not only ELP (Environmental Load Point), our the original environmental impact index, we incorporated some individual indexes, like CO_2 emission, landfill amount, material recycling rate, that corresponded to the guideline of Ministry of the Environment in BAS software. Secondly, we examined the effect of wide range waste management system as an example of BAS software. As a result, the melting treatment method could be introduced while holding expenses down.
