landfill site selection is an important action in integrated solid waste management process. different criteria should be considered in site selection. therefore using special methods are necessary to evaluate the criteria. the object of the current study was to determine and select suitable sites for solid waste landfill in shiraz city regarding the observation of environmental matters by usin...

environmental factors are one of the most sensitive issues that should be considered in many decisions. site selection is one of the most widely used spatial decision making problems and is influenced by many environmental factors. the purpose of site selection is to find a set of appropriate spatial alternatives for a particular application. site selection is a multi-criteria decision making p...

One of the main principles of the passive defense is the principle of site selection. In this paper, we propose a multiple objective nonlinear programming model that considers the principle of the site selection in terms of two qualitative and quantitative aspects. The purpose of the proposed model is selection of the place of facilities of a system in which not only it observes the dispersion ...

Environmental planning and management can have positive effects on development of some land uses including industrial areas that have a major effect on economic, social and environmental conditions. Considering the most important problems associated with modeling, the fundamental methods and functions of site-selection laid inside the geographical information system are not accounted for the mu...

behaviour of the dilution characteristics of the coastal waters off tuticorin is presented in thebackground of setting up of a desalination plant. simulations of dispersion and spreading of the proposeddischarges has been carried out. scenarios of dilutions were assessed based on the results of a 2d model using the advection-dispersion theory. it is observed that under prevailing currents in th...

background and purpose: an appropriate solid waste (sw) disposal has been a major problem in municipal environment. the use of landfills is the most economical and environmentally acceptable method for the disposal of sws all over the world. however, landfill leachate can cause environmental issues such as soil and ground water pollution. so, finding suitable land fill site is one of the most s...

making an informed decision with regards to a suitable business location or site selection for organizations is becoming challenging for business decision makers globally; and even more challenging in business environment that are saddled with uncertainties. the continues raise of multiple criteria variation of site preferences has also necessitated the application of advanced decision making t...

Introduction: Decentralized wastewater treatment facilities are an expensive approach for developing countries. Decentralized wastewater treatment plants (DWWTPs) are a flexible technology. They have low construction and operational costs. Site selection is the most significant stage in the implementation of a DWWTPS. Therefore, the present study aimed to perform a site selection among the prop...
