Site Suitability Analysis for Waste to Energy Facility in Onitsha North Local Government Area, Anambra State, Nigeria
Author(s): Muhammad Isma’il**
Onitsha North in Anambra State is an industrial and commercial city in south eastern Nigeria that is currently faced with twin problems of poor waste management and epileptic power supply. Exploiting the huge waste energy potentials in the area through Waste to Energy (WTE) technology is an efficient and sustainable waste management strategy that can be deployed in order to boost the energy supply mix in the area. However, the viability of WTE adoption has not been investigated, because the basic geographic information for exploiting WTE potential is presently lacking in spite of the huge potentials in the area. As a first and critical step to address this problem, this study combined Geographic Information System (GIS) and Multi-criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) techniques to identify suitable sites for WTE facility in Onitsha North with a view to determining the..
