Abstract EN

The study aimed at assessing the locational suitability of the two-interim landfills (Alghiran and Alkarareem) in Misurata municipalty utilizing GIS technique.

The study, as well as, searched the possibility of finding new, safe burial waste sites.

It did so according to some standards of Basel Convetion, and these are: keeping away from mainraods, keeping away from airports, keeping away from waste-generating sources, ground use, soil type, slope and groung water depth.

The obtained data was analyzed using spatial analysis, so that the evaluation of the studied landfills was given by means of analytic hierarchy.

In conclusion, it was found that the two landfills scored conflictual results.

Whereas Alghiran Lndfill achieved a low degree of suitability (23 degrees), which does not agree with the study standards, Alkrarareem interim burial waste got a a high-suitability degree (37 degrees) and this meets most Basel Convention standards.

It was also revealed that an area of about 320.8 km2 in the municipality can be considered suitable for future, safe burial waste sites.
