| Zusammenfassung |
| Open dumping is the common procedure for final disposal of municipal solid
waste (MSW) in Iran. Several environmental pollution and soil degradation
problems were found as a consequence of poor planning of landfills. So
recognition of the MSW landfill state is required to prevent environmental
problems. The objective of this research was to study the suitability of
existing municipal landfill sites using geographic information system
methods. Tonekabon city in the west area of Mazandaran province, northern
Iran, along the southern coast of the Caspian Sea, was chosen as a case
study. In order to carry out this evaluation, two guidelines were used:
Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) and regional screening guidelines.
The results indicate that the landfills were not located in suitable sites
and also that there are few suitable locations to install the landfills. |
