Complementary procedures and technologies are needed to resolve water governance concerns, urging a rapid alteration of the economics, engineering, and administration agendas to determine our generation's water challenges. Ekbatan Wastewater Treatment Plant (EWTP) confronts several problems that necessitate comprehensive and strategic planning and management. An analysis of strength-weakness-opportunity-threat (SWOT) and quantitative strategic planning matrix (QSPM) methods were used to investigate strategic factors. For scoring the proposed strategies, a group of experts who are familiar with environmental management was selected. Environmental factors were recognized and investigated. According to experts' opinions, important and unimportant factors were identified and prioritized. The most effective strategy to further strengthen the current situation is "expanding the treatment plant activities such as internal infrastructure and urban utilities to manage more waste."}, keywords = {Strategic management,Sustainable development,SWOT,QSPM,Waste management}, url = {https://arww.razi.ac.ir/article_1640.html}, eprint = {https://arww.razi.ac.ir/article_1640_f06c23937a79d5fb064a9b9350979310.pdf} }
