Background and Objective: Waste management is a crucial aspect of sustainable city development due to the increasing population, urbanization expansion, and changes in consumption patterns. The purpose of this study is to identify the waste landfill in Bushehr city by considering the relationships between various criteria using the DANP (DEMATEL-ANP) method.
Materials and Methods: 17 criteria were identified to identify the suitable landfill. The weighting of these criteria was done by DANP integrated multi-criteria decision-making technique. The internal relationships of the criteria and the causal relationships between the criteria were also determined. Then, these weights were multiplied in the spatial layer of each of the criteria in the environment of geographic information systems.
Results: The most crucial criterion for selecting a suitable location for urban landfill is land use, followed by the criteria of distance from residential areas, tourist places, and the road. The study identified and evaluated five locations in Bushehr city as potential landfills based on these criteria. The eastern and southeastern parts of Bushehr city emerged as the most suitable locations for landfill among the evaluated sites.
Conclusion: The DANP model proves highly effective in identifying landfills and offers a framework for addressing issues related to waste landfill selection. This research can serve as a valuable guide for planning and locating waste landfills, providing a basis for addressing both theoretical and practical challenges associated with landfill management.
