Contribution à l’état des lieux de déchets solides ménagers dans la ville D’Uvira, Sud-Kivu, République Démocratique du Congo

Abstract: L'explosion démographique, l'accroissement des activités urbaines, l'insuffisance des ressources financières des pouvoirs publics au niveau local et l'absence de réelles politiques environnementales sont parmi les facteurs qui expliquent la présence des déchets le long des grandes artères des villes de l'Afrique subsaharienne. Ce travail a porté sur la contribution à l'état de lieux des déchets solides ménagers dans la ville d'Uvira. L'échantillonnage était systématique, basé sur les activités socioprofessionn… Show more

“…En effet, la mauvaise gestion de ces déchets (brûlage à l'air libre, dépôts non contrôlés…) entraîne des pollutions sur le sol, l'eau, l'air et nuit à la santé humaine et animale (Toguyeni, 2006 ;Doublier et al, 2009 ;Hien et al, 2010 ;Some et al, 2014). La production sans cesse croissante, corrélée avec la demande qui, ellemême est en rapport avec la croissance démographique, se révèle comme la principale difficulté pour mieux cadrer leur gestion (Kaboré, 2009 ;CNE, 2009 ;Lumami et al, 2016). L'utilisation des sachets plastiques est observée dans d'innombrables secteurs d'activités (alimentation, commerce, industrie, …) entrainant sans doute une forte production de déchets (Adjagodo, 2016).…”

“…Total coliforms in the samples increased from site 4 at the collector outlet to site 5 at Lake Tanganyika at a distance of 2 meters from the vertical inlet of the pollutant. The increase in the number of Total Coliforms in the lake is explained by the open environment of the lake, which receives all the solid and liquid waste from the city of Uvira (Lumami et al, 2016), and this solid waste are piled up on the shoreline of the lake, and currently the shoreline of the lake is considered a public dumping ground. Faecal Coliforms, E. coli and Salmonella sp were completely absent in all the samples.…”

“…It should be noted that the city of Uvira has no sewage system, nor a liquid and solid waste treatment station. Consequently, all the waste produced by households, both solid and liquid, is discharged into the drains of several avenues in the town to be channelled to the lake (Lumami et al, 2016). Lake Tanganyika is home to several endemic species, most of which are found nowhere else in the world (Fermon, 2007).…”

“…Moreover, the technique locally used to fight against these erosions is the installation of bins to retain the soil which goes a long way to explain the abundance of waste in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This calls for urban waste management as a major concern for the preservation of the environment [25] [26]. The city of Uvira, located in the province of South Kivu in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo and in the North-west of Lake Tanganyika, is encountering a critical pollution problem due to lack of a sewer network, as well as a liquid and solid waste treatment plant.…”

Consequently, all of the household waste, both solid and liquid, is dumped in the gutters of several avenues of the municipalities from where they are carried to Lake Tanganyika [26]. This is the case of the large collector built by the Belgian Technical Cooperation, which carries hospital effluents from the Uvira General Reference Hospital and effluents from the central prison of Uvira to Lake Tanganyika.…”
