This study evaluates the transshipment productivity of circular waste in six Polish seaports between 2013 and 2022 using the Malmquist Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) method. The model is output-oriented and incorporates transshipped waste volumes as outputs, while inputs include quay length, maximum permissible draft, and maximum ship length. The results show that Gdynia achieved the highest productivity growth (+9.9%), followed by Darłowo (+2.8%) and Szczecin (+1%). In contrast, Świnoujście and Kołobrzeg experienced notable declines. Gdynia and Szczecin exhibited constant scale efficiency, while others suffered from scale disadvantages. Overall, total productivity increased slightly (+0.3%) over the decade, primarily due to technological change. Peaks in productivity in 2015 and 2020 correlated with significant technological improvements. These findings have practical policy implications: port authorities can benchmark their operations, identify inefficiencies, and tailor infrastructure investments to optimise the handling of circular waste. The results suggest that smaller, secondary ports – often overlooked in port research - can play a strategic role in circular supply chains if supported by proper planning and targeted modernisation. The application of Malmquist DEA in this novel cargo category and port group demonstrates the model’s potential for sustainable performance evaluation in complex logistics environments.

W artykule oceniono produktywność przeładunków odpadów cyrkularnych w sześciu polskich portach morskich w latach 2013–2022 przy użyciu analizy obwiedni danych Malmquista (Malmquist DEA). W badaniu zastosowano model DEA zorientowany na wyniki, biorąc pod uwagę ilość eksportowanych i importowanych odpadów jako wyniki, z długością nabrzeża, maksymalnym dopuszczalnym zanurzeniem i maksymalną długością statku jako danymi wejściowymi. Wyniki pokazują, że największy wzrost produktywności osiągnął port w Gdyni (+9.9%), następnie w Darłowie (+2.8%) i Szczecinie (+1%). Natomiast w Świnoujściu i Kołobrzegu odnotowano wyraźne spadki. Gdynia i Szczecin wykazywały stałą efektywność skali, podczas gdy pozostałe porty cierpiały z powodu niekorzystnych efektów skali. Ogólnie dla wszystkich portów, całkowita produktywność wzrosła nieznacznie (+0,3%) w ciągu dekady, głównie dzięki zmianom technologicznym. Szczyty produktywności w latach 2015 i 2020 korelowały ze znaczącymi postępami technologicznymi. Wyniki te mają praktyczne znaczenie dla polityki portowej: władze portowe mogą porównywać swoją działalność, identyfikować nieefektywności i dostosowywać inwestycje infrastrukturalne w celu optymalizacji obsługi odpadów cyrkularnych. Badanie sugeruje, że mniejsze, drugorzędne porty – choć często pomijane w badaniach portowych – mogą odgrywać strategiczną rolę w cyrkularnych łańcuchach dostaw, jeśli zostaną odpowiednio zaplanowane i zmodernizowane. Zastosowanie metody Malmquista DEA do tej nowej kategorii ładunków i grupy portów pokazuje potencjał tego modelu w ocenie zrównoważonej wydajności w złożonych środowiskach logistycznych.
