Abstract
Excessive expansion of cities and, as a result of the excessive increase in urban population, especially in recent years, have led to an increase in consumption over time, resulting in an increase in the production of various types of waste in urban areas. The selection of landfill sites is one of the important steps in the management of solid urban waste. Due to the environmental, economic and ecological hazards of landfills, the choice of landfill should be carried out with care and in a scientific process. In this research, determination of suitable landfill location of Ghirokarzin county using GIS is investigated. This research is an applied and descriptive-analytical method. The purpose of this research is to select the appropriate local area where the risk to the general public is minimized at the landfill site. Second, the site has the least environmental impact. Thirdly, the location provides the minimum cost and the highest level of service for users of facilities and equipment slowly . In this study, the criteria for selecting suitable places for sanitary landfills such as geological features, access routes, slopes, faults, land use maps, distances from urban and rural centers, and so on. . Regarding the final results of the integration of the information layers, three priority areas for waste management are considered. The first priority is located 23 kilometers from Qir, about 6 kilometers north of Imam. The second priority is located 15 kilometers from the city, 4 kilometers from the north of Faddam village, and finally the third priority is 12 kilometers from the city. 5 km south of the village of Anari
