An Integrated Solution to Urban and Sea Waste Management Systems: Using Axiomatic Design to Discuss Urban Development Risks

Abstract

The problems of preserving the natural environment of the Arctic Ocean and cleaning the Great Pacific Garbage Patch can be used to enrich business activities in the Primorsky Territory of the Russian Federation and the Eastern Sector of the Arctic. In this regard, the infrastructure of the ports of the Northern Sea Route could be seen as a new vector of development, not only taking into account the requirements for eliminating accidents and emergencies from shipwreck and oil spills, but also providing adequate infra-structure for waste treatment. This would connect the underused existing waste management infrastructure with the cleaning of parts of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch. The unstable composition of garbage from the Pacific Ocean and the waters of the Northern Sea Route require a consistent multi-level system of water and waste treatment centers using not only ships and ports, but also offshore structure. The article discusses a framework for design solutions for the urban development of the Vladivostok Commercial Sea Port and approaches to maximize the use of waste management facilities in Russky Island, using Axiomatic Design.
