Integrated and effective management of muck waste under the platform governance mode for a circular economy
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Abstract Construction waste is a type of solid waste that is inevitably produced in the process of urban development and has a dreadful environmental impact due to inadequate management of it by the public sector. The purpose of this paper is therefore to investigate platform governance as an alternative strategy for muck waste management that will contribute to a circular economy. A comparison between the traditional governance process and platform governance of muck truck management is made by using Petri-net. Nanjing’s muck smart supervision platform is used as a case study to assess effectiveness of the platform governance mode. Results from Petri-net simulation modeling software reveal that the platform governance mode is more effective than the traditional mode. Based on the case study of Nanjing’s muck smart supervision platform, it is found that the success of Nanjing's muck waste management can be attributed to the platform governance mode. This means that the platform management approach can contribute to the sustainability of muck waste governance. It is feasible to utilize the platform governance mode for muck waste as an integrated and effective management mode for current practices of muck waste management and resource recovery in China. The platform governance mode can significantly improve the efficiency of muck waste management and provide economic and environmental benefits as part of a circular economy.

TL;DR
This paper proposes a platform governance mode for managing muck waste from construction and demolition waste and compares it with traditional governance using Petri net modeling and a Nanjing case study. It finds that the platform mode shortens governance process times and can provide environmental and economic benefits for a circular economy.
Key findings
- Petri net simulation showed the platform governance mode had shorter average process cycle times than the traditional mode: 6.5, 6.7, and 6.76 days for 10, 20, and 50 process samples, versus 14.7, 14.75, and 15.24 days under traditional governance.
- Nanjing’s muck smart supervision platform reduced certificate processing time from an average of 2–3 days to a few hours; Nanjing’s demolition and construction waste resource utilization rate exceeded 90%, with nearly 3 million tons of construction waste recycled, saving approximately 1.8 million cubic meters of landfill space and nearly 100 million yuan in transportation and landfill costs.
- The platform mode is described as reducing information asymmetry between the public sector and regulated enterprises through real-time data collection, automatic violation reporting, control instructions, and value co-creation among public sector, platform enterprises, and muck transportation/disposal enterprises.
Methods
- The study uses Petri net to model and compare the traditional governance process and the platform governance process for muck truck management, redefining tokens, places, transitions, and time delays for muck waste governance.
- It conducts a case study of Nanjing’s muck smart supervision platform; time-delay data for critical processes were obtained through a survey at Nanjing Jingzhu Wisdom Technology Company, and Visual Object Net++ was used to build timed Petri net models.
- The analysis compares process cycle times and reports environmental, economic, and social acceptance benefits of the platform governance mode.
Limitations
- The paper states that it lacks analysis of waste reduction from the source; future research should combine the platform governance mode with building information modeling (BIM) to avoid unnecessary waste generation, and a full life cycle assessment could be carried out to investigate environmental and social impacts.
- Evident from the text: the empirical findings rely on a single Nanjing case and simulation time delays obtained from one company survey, so broader generalizability and independent validation are not established.
- Evident from the text: environmental and economic benefits are reported for Nanjing without a full life cycle assessment or detailed quantification of social impacts.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-11-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-11-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
