Abstract
The selection of an environmental policy instrument usually requires the consideration of a significant number of criteria, sometimes conflicting with each other. The objective of this article is to prioritize the different fundamental criteria and economic instruments that best encourage the recycling of waste generated in the construction and demolition processes in Valle de Aburrá, Colombia. The Hierarchical Analysis Process approach was used for multicriteria analysis, including the opinions of experts from the construction and the academic sectors. It was found that the environmental and sanitary performance is the most relevant criterion, and the rate for non‐selective demolition and non‐separation would be the most appropriate economic instrument to
encourage the recycling of this type of waste.
