Abstract

Properly managing waste generated by buildings and public works is a significant challenge in Tunisia, particularly in the city of Bizerte. The inadequate disposal of such waste can cause substantial harm to human life, property, and the environment. This paper proposes an multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) that utilizes the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) decision support tool to identify suitable landfill sites for construction and demolition waste (CDW) in Bizerte. The AHP method is widely used in MCDM applications. The approach involves classifying different scenarios based on various exclusion and appreciation criteria to determine the optimal locations for future landfills. Furthermore, the paper develops a conceptual approach for identifying better sites for the disposal of CDW, resulting in a comprehensive database capable of storing, accessing, and extracting information at both conceptual and operational levels. The proposed model considers spatial, technical, and environmental criteria in the selection of a suitable landfill site. The proposed methodology offers an effective and practical solution for properly managing CDW waste in Bizerte, Tunisia, and can be applied to other regions facing similar challenges.
