LANDFILL SITE SELECTION IN DELTA STATE NIGERIA | Journal of Global Ecology and Environment

Solid waste management is one of the most pressing environmental issues facing local governments in developing countries. With expanding urbanisation putting pressure on land availability for garbage disposal, landfills are being built in less-than-ideal locations, particularly in developing countries like Nigeria. This study examines the literature on landfill siting techniques and emphasises the importance of proper landfill site selection in Delta State, taking into account a large amount of spatial data, engineering data, environmental, social, and economic criteria in order to locate sites that protect the public and the environment.
