Abstract
The rising global demand for sustainable waste management solutions has spurred additional investigations into insect-based systems, particularly the Black Soldier Fly (BSF), as a potential solution within circular economy practices. Employing dynamic systems modeling, this study elucidates the intricate interactions within the BSF cultivation process and underscores the role of BSF in waste conversion and recycling. The integration of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) into the modeling framework aids in devising a comprehensive implementation strategy by considering factors that impact the success of BSF cultivation.The study^s results reveal that the models for each factor meet validity criteria, displaying values ranging from 0.049 to 0.059. While the pessimistic scenario does not indicate a significant risk difference, the moderate scenario indicates a risk value change of approximately 2.121 points by 2030 post-intervention. Conversely, the optimistic scenario demonstrates a notable shift in the risk value, totaling around 1721.8 points in 2030. This research advances sustainable waste management practices by offering a holistic approach to BSF cultivation through dynamic system modeling and AHP-guided decision-making. These insights are valuable for policymakers, researchers, and practitioners aiming to incorporate insect-based systems into circular economy frameworks, fostering more sustainable and robust waste management strategies.
