###### Abstract
MCDM techniques commonly require decision-makers to assign weightings of importance to the decision criteria based on which the available technologies are ranked. This structured approach ensures that all relevant factors are considered and balanced, leading to more informed and objective decision-making. Other authors introduce a hierarchical network decision structure and apply the analytic network process super-matrix approach to measure the relative desirability of disposal alternatives using value judgments as the input of the various stakeholders. That analytic network process enables decision-makers to find the best possible solution to complex problems by breaking down a problem into a systematic network of inter-relationships among the various levels and attributes [23]. The decision support system is considered as a decision model that requires information about all possible costs, technical, normative, and environmental issues, specifically pollution, and impacts induced by the ISWM system. Some decision variables used in the decision model are binary and others are continuous [24]. In this way, a multi-criteria method was used to address the best system for the disposal of solid waste municipal residues choosing among biological treatment, thermal treatment, and landfilling [25]. Subsequently, we will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of pneumatic selection systems, incorporating perspectives from experts in municipal waste management systems and feedback from users who have interacted with such systems. The decision-making process for an efficient Municipal Solid Waste Management (MSWM) requires the consideration of a significant number of mutually conflicting criteria to come up with the optimal solution. Decision-makers must select from a wide spectrum of available alternatives. Nevertheless, balancing social, economic, and environmental perspectives in MSWM is difficult due to the inevitable conflict of objectives related to the three pillars of sustainability [26]. For MSWM to be sustainable, it requires to be economically reasonable, environmentally friendly, and socially acceptable; that is, a sustainable approach with a sound technical, environmental, and economic assessment along with public participation, consultation, and stakeholder dialogue on the proposed solutions. The social dimension of MSWM involves the participation of the society and community in their consumption and disposal attitude towards minimizing MSW generation along with involvement and relevance in the decision-making process [11]. Finally, we will conceive and develop a decision-making tool to address the complexity of assessing the suitability of incorporating pneumatic municipal solid waste collection systems in municipalities or specific areas, based on a holistic approach. Through the developed decision matrix, we intend to assess the technical, economic, and social feasibility of implementing a pneumatic urban solid waste collection system, aligning it with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) established by the United Nations [27]. We will measure the degree of compliance with the SDGs through specific variables, allowing a comprehensive assessment that separates the technical aspects of the environment from the economic and social aspects. To achieve the proposed objectives, we will employ extensive data collection from municipalities already utilizing PUSWCS, including surveys [28; 29] and statistical calculations of system users, technicians, and waste management experts. Additionally, considering our aim to optimize implementation in smart cities, we will analyze technical parameters such as implementation costs, operational efficiency, environmental impact, and health conditions, including the challenges posed by COVID-19 where automatic systems are gaining prominence. These technical considerations will be examined alongside social factors like waste management, quality of life, citizen acceptance, and resilience to disruptions.
