Abstract

The final disposal of municipal solid waste is now one of the major sanitation problems founds in Brazil and in the state of Goiás. The deposit of solid waste in inappropriate places brings social, environmental and economic disruption. The National Solid Waste Policy defines the completion of open dumps and states that the final disposal of environmentally sound waste must occur in landfills. The first stage of a landfill project is choosing an area where the landfill will be deployed. The selection of areas for landfill deployment should be careful to avoid possible damage to health, the environment and the population. In this sense, we present the case study, in the municipality of Senador Canedo, which were applied estimation, methodologies type Impact Overlay Mapping and Leopold Matrix adapted to the evaluation of areas to landfill. The Overlay Mapping type of tool uses cartographic techniques to create thematic maps that were superimposed finding six primary areas in the city. The Matrix Leopold was adapted with the hierarchy of public health and safety criteria, as well as environmental, social and cultural, technical and financial resources for evaluating a location for the landfill deployment in the city. selecting a viable area must meet the legal standards and requirements and technical standards in order to promote the local population welfare and the preservation of the environment and public health. Thus, it was identified and was defined that only a suitable area included all the requirements requested after the sum of the weights of notes and weights. To this effect was observed in this study that the municipality of Senador Canedo found a suitable area for the implementation of the landfill in compliance with the legal requirements and technical standards
