Landfill Site Selection by Using Geographic Information Systems
Şener, Başak; Doyuran, Vedat; Department of Geological Engineering (2004)
One of the serious and growing potential problems in most large urban areas is the shortage of land for waste disposal. Although there are some efforts to reduce and recover the waste, disposal in landfills is still the most common method for waste destination. An inappropriate landfill site may have negative environmental, economic and ecological impacts. Therefore, it should be selected carefully by considering both regulations and constraints on other sources. In this study, candidate sites for an approp...

WASTE-WATER MANAGEMENT FOR ISTANBUL - BASIS FOR TREATMENT AND DISPOSAL
ORHON, D; USLU, O; MERIC, S; SALIHOGLU, I; FILIBELI, A (Elsevier BV, 1994-01-01)
A number of studies have so far been conducted to assess the magnitude of pollution generated by domestic and industrial sources in the Istanbul Metropolitan Area. They indicate that a management scheme for wastewater treatment and disposal should involve a total discharge of 15.4 m3 s-1 with a potential pollution load of 330 tons BOD5 day-1 for 1990. A scheme of this magnitude inevitably requires careful evaluation of receiving water characteristics, both from an oceanographic and a quality standpoint.

Landfill site selection utilizing TOPSIS methodology and clay liner geotechnical characterization: a case study for Ankara, Turkey
Yal, Gozde Pinar; Akgün, Haluk (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2014-05-01)
The purpose of this study was to select alternative landfill sites for Ankara based on the growing trends of Ankara toward the GolbaAYA +/- municipality, and to eventually select the best alternative through the use of decision-making tools. Geographic information systems (GIS) and multi-criteria decision analyses were employed to perform landfill site selection. Several criteria, including geology, slope, proximity to roads, availability and proximity of landfill containment material, settlement, suitabili...
