Identifying solid waste disposal sites and appropriately managing them is a challenging task to many developing countries. This is a critical problem too in Ethiopia in general and in Wukro town in particular. The existing site for Wukro town is not sufficient in its capacity and it is damaging the environment due to its location, and the type of waste dumped, while the surrounding area is being irrigated. Due to the swift expansion and urbanization developments in Wukro town, it badly needs to develop controlled solid waste dumping site to prevent several contamination problems. This study was conducted first, to assess the existing waste management strategies in Wukro town; and second, to find out the potential waste disposal sites for the town, using GIS and Remote Sensing techniques. The study exploited the Multi-Criteria Evaluation (MCE) methods to combine necessary factors considered for dumping site selection. The selected method also uses various geographical data including remote sensing data, with GIS spatial analysis tools. Accordingly, site suitability maps for each of the factors were developed in a GIS environment. Results indicate that 12 dumping sites were appropriate and they were further ranked against their suitability in terms of wind direction, proximity to settlement area and distance from the center of the town. Finally, two sites are the best suitable for dumping site. This study indicated that the application of Geographic Information System and Remote Sensing techniques are efficient and low cost tools to study and select appropriate dumping site so as to facilitate decision making processes.

Solid waste is a waste generated every day. The amount of solid waste generation depends on the total area of housing and services, the area of the places, and activities. The increase in population, housing and services in the area has resulted in the generation of solid waste. The solid waste should be disposed of to prevent the spread of disease and to keep the environment clean. Normally, solid waste will be disposed of in landfill sites. In four districts in Negeri Sembilan that is Jelebu, Jempol, Kuala Pilah and Tampin, the existing landfill in these areas have reached semi-critical status and the capacity is about to reach the maximum level. Therefore, this study was undertaken to proposed the most ideal and effective new solid waste landfill based on the distribution of housing in an area using the Geographic Information System (GIS). GIS serves as a hardware device that stores information and databases of the area and analyzes data to produce the output required by the user. In addition, this study was conducted to investigate and determine the criteria and weighting factors taken into account in determining the location of landfill sites. In addition, this study also conducted to identify the optimization of disposal of solid waste and the type of new landfill proposed. Some analyzes such as Analysis Geoprocessing, Model Builder, OD Cost Matrix, Network Analyst and Service Area has been carried out to obtain an ideal location to serve as a solid waste disposal site. Based on the analysis, the new landfill can cover 242 of housing areas within 25 kilometers from the landfill compared to the existing landfill that only covered 165 of housing areas only. Finally, the siting of the landfill using GIS application is the best system in helping the user to determine the new landfill in such a fastest way.

Introduction: Landfill siting is a difficult, complex, and protracted process, which requires evaluating different criteria. A suitable site should be located to dispose the municipal solid wastes hygienically (sanitary landfill), which is one of the fundamental subjects related to the environmental stability of the human settlements. The aim was to select a suitable waste disposal area using fuzzy-Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) models. Materials and Methods: To conduct this study, the information about elevation, slope, soil, drainage, vegetation, land use, population, and roads were produced and corrected in layers called shape files using the Geographic Information System (GIS) software. Finally, weights were applied in expert choice software by combining and overlapping information layers in GIS.  Results: Based on the fuzzy-AHP model, 6 sites were identified as suitable areas for municipal waste disposal. Among the selected sites, one site was highly suitable, two were suitable, and three sites were moderately suitable. These areas with an area of 83.8 km2 are located along the west part of the city adjacent to the Iraqi border. The unsuitable sites for municipal waste disposal were located in the eastern and northeastern areas. Conclusion: However, applying fuzzy-AHP model provides the necessary conditions for assessing effective relationships among discrete criteria. In the end, combining these models and their findings represented advantages of this kind of modeling and improved scoring in all of these pixels.

The Cost

Sanitary landfill remains the most common methodology for final treatment and disposal of municipal solid waste worldwide, the cost per tonne depends on its scale. The bigger the landfill, the cheaper the cost of treatment, so the consortium of municipalities is the solution to achieve an economic scale. However, the growth of waste production introduces pressure for adequate solutions and therefore has been increasing sanitary landfill site selection studies. This study proposes a methodology for siting sanitary landfills and optimising the transport of municipal solid waste for a locality in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. Environmental, social, and economic criteria were established. Their correlated attributes were categorised into suitability levels and weighted according to multiple decision analysis. The data were organised and mapped within a geographic information system. Considering sites where landfills are prohibited, two scenarios were generated. The Mixed-Integer Quadratic Programming mathematical model is used to minimise the costs of transporting municipal solid waste and operating sanitary landfills. In Scenario 1, the results indicated that 64% of the area was suitable as a potential sanitary landfill site, 9% of the area exhibited medium suitability, and 27% of the area was classified as restricted. In Scenario 2, the results indicated that 25% of the area was suitable as a potential sanitary landfill site, 4% of the area had medium suitability, and 71% of the area was classified as restricted. The optimal solutions for Scenario 1 and Scenario 2 enabled sites to be determined for five landfills and four landfills, respectively.

AbstractThe government authorities in developing countries are awfully concerned with coping out the problems of the rising issues related to the disposal of solid wastes. Most of the Indian cities still dispose of solid waste unscientifically causing to severe environmental as well as public health problems. Geographic information systems (GIS) and analytic hierarchy process (AHP) have emerged as efficient tools for multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) in effective solutions of solid waste management. The present study focuses on the integration of GIS and AHP in identifying potential sanitary landfill areas for solid waste disposal in Durgapur city, West Bengal, India. Eleven criteria were selected viz. land elevation, slope, soil, geology, land use land cover, distance to surface water, distance to tube wells, distance to roads, distance to industrial belts, distance to sensitive places, and land cost. All the criteria were aggregated using weighted overlay analysis in GIS environment. The study identified three potential landfill areas for MSW disposal covering the areas of 13.83854, 33.80678, and 27.20085 ha, respectively, in Durgapur city. The result found that land cost value was the most significant criterion in the model with a weight of 0.25258. Followed by land cost value, sensitive places and roads were the second and third most important criteria with a weight value of 0.1409 and 0.1233, respectively.

The Amount Of Household Waste Produced By The Mainly Urban Population In Morocco Continues To Increase Year After Year. Morocco Is Thus Confronted With The Problems Of Storage And Disposal Of This Waste, Which Are Composed Largely Of Organic Matter, Bio-Waste. In The Recent Past, These Wastes Have Been Buried In Wild Dumps Or In Old Quarries Located In Areas Close To Urban Centers Without Any Treatment Or Control. This Can Constitute Significant Risks Both For Public Health And The Environment And For The Future Of The Socio-Economic Activities Of The Country. Determination Of Proper Landfill Site Involves Multiple Disciplines. The Landfills Contain A Large Quantity Of Solid Waste. The Management Of Solid Waste (Msw) Necessitates The Involvement Of Different Stakeholders. In This Paper, We Aim To Determine The Appropriate Landfill Site At The Level Of The Municipality Of Ajdir In The Province Of Al Hoceima Morocco. We Take Into Consideration The Opinions Of The Stakeholders. Based On Environmental, Socio-Cultural And Economic Criteria. For This Purpose, We Used In This Paper Two Multi-Criteria Analysis Methods. The Geographic Information System (Gis) And The Analytic Hierarchy Process (Ahp). First, We Created The Database Gis Related To The Study Area. Next, This Data Was Processed To Determine The Landfill Sites That Respect The Stakeholder's Priorities And Exclusion Criteria. Then, A Multi-Criteria Analysis By Ahp Method Was Carried Out To Offer Different Visual Representations Of The Possible Solutions Of The Site’s Choice, Especially The Multi-Scale, Multi-Theme Maps And The Construction Of The Free Zones Which Can Shelter A Landfill Which Will Contribute To The Evaluation Of These Criteria While Integrating The Stakeholders Who Assisted In The Rationalization Of The Sub-Criteria’s Judgments Involved In The Study.
