Sustainable Domestic Solid Waste Management in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia

In Saudi Arabia, the types and quantities of waste that produced by people is increasing rapidly as a result of increasing population, urbanization, rising living standards and technological developments. The methods that are used to solve the problem of household solid waste elimination are: irregular storage and landfill. In this study, instead of landfill, installation of a modern solid waste retrieval, disposal and energy production facility installation has been analyzed in technical and economic point of view. To make a technical and economic analysis of such an integrated recycling, disposal and energy generation facility, the average composition and the amount of waste, household waste, recyclable (paper, plastic, glass, metal) and organic matter contents that belong to Jeddah Municipality have been determined. Based on this information; investment cost of the facility, annual revenue, annual expenditure and repayment period have been calculated.
