By referring to alternative behavioral models such as the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB [39]), this study analyzes behavioral precursors that account for different levels of propensity for bioenergy innovation (Fig. 1). The TPB is a socio-psychological model that is largely adopted in different...
Before waste-to-energy solutions, for example, it is possible to consider the use of recycled packages for shipping products. The same package may be used more than once; for example, if a product is sent back by the consumer, the product package could be used for the next shipment. ...

Therefore, some notions and concepts that accept imprecision and ambiguity in defining the templates and scoring systems were proposed to be incorporated in prenegotiation to build the new support models that use the elements of fuzzy sets theory [7,8].
