Journal Article
Use of GIS and Moran’s I to support residential solid waste recycling in the city of Annaba, Algeria
2021
Overview
Urban planners require an understanding of the composition as well as the spatial distribution of household solid waste (HSW) components to design policies for various wards of a city. This paper aims to study the composition as well as the spatial dependency of the HSW components generated by the wards forming Annaba city in Algeria. The results of the HSW composition have revealed the high content of the organic matters which represents 50%, the textiles with 13.6%, and the plastics with 10% of the total quantity; the rest of the composition was 5.9% of paper and paperboard, 3% of metals, and 1% of glass. Furthermore, the result of the global and the local Moran indexes calculated and mapped through the ArcGIS 10.7 software shows that there is an evident spatial dependency for almost all the HSW components. Thus, 18% of the total quantity is produced by clustered wards, which propose the segregation of individual waste components at the source as an efficient way to support the reuse, recovery, and recycling. The greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have revealed that 60% of the emissions are the methane produced from the landfill, and 30% is due to the open burning in the air of waste.
