Abstract :
Finding a suitable sanitation landfill is a complex process that depends on various factors and criteria. The purpose of this research is to select suitable location for sanitary landfill of municipal solid waste in Shushtar city based on environmental, health and economic criteria. In this research, the capabilities and methods based on the GIS and the process of fuzzy hierarchy analysis have been used. In the first stage, the parameters affecting the landfill location include geology, groundwater maps, distance from wells, land use, faults, slope of land, river, flood areas, protected areas, distance maps from main roads, layers The distance was from rural urban centers and were selected. After the standard maps were prepared, standardization of the layers was performed. Then, using the fuzzy hierarchy process analysis, the weight of the criteria was calculated and after applying the weights in the corresponding layers, the overlaying of the layers was performed with the help of fuzzy functions. The result of the combination of layers indicates the proper places for burial, waste. The final landfill map was classified as waste landfill.
