Abstract Aspiring green agendas in conjunction with tremendous economic pressures are resulting an increased attention to the environment and technological innovations for improving existing logistics systems. Last mile logistics, particular, becoming much more than a consumer convenience necessity transportation optimization exercise. Rather, this area presents true opportunity foster both financial environmental sustainability. This paper investigates recent advancements pending needs related business social innovations, emphasizing city concepts. We discuss various pertinent aspects, including drones, delivery robots, truck platooning, collection pickup points, collaborative integrated transportation, decarbonization advanced transport analytics. From mathematical perspective, we focus on basic features of vehicle routing problem some its variants. provide recommendations around strategies that may facilitate adoption new effective technologies innovations.

Modern technologies, particularly artificial intelligence, play a crucial role in improving medical waste management by developing intelligent systems that optimize the shortest routes for transport, from its generation to final disposal. Algorithms such as Q-learning and Deep Q Network enhance efficiency of transport disposal while reducing environmental pollution risks. In this study, intelligence algorithms were trained using Homogeneous agent with capacity 3 tons between hospitals within Closed Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem framework. Integrating AI pathfinding techniques, especially hybrid A*-Deep approach, led advanced results despite initial challenges. K-means clustering was used divide into zones, allowing agents navigate paths Network. Analysis revealed agents’ not fully utilized. This application Fractional Knapsack dynamic programming maximize utilization achieving optimal routes. Since criteria compare algorithms’ effectiveness are number vehicles total vehicle capacity, it found DQN stands out requiring fewest (4), 0% loss metric matches value. Compared other require 5 or 7 vehicles, reduces fleet size 20 42.86%, respectively. Additionally, maximizes at 100%, unlike methods, which utilize only 33 66% capacity. However, improvement comes cost 9% increase distance, reflecting longer needed serve more per trip. Despite trade-off, algorithm’s ability minimize utilizing makes choice scenarios where these factors critical. approach improved performance but also enhanced sustainability, making most effective challenging solution among all study.
