“…Although some progress has been made towards the source-separated collection of MSW in China, its status in China pales in comparison to that of some industrialized countries such as Germany and Japan, which have achieved remarkable results in MSW management and circular economy Vehlow, 1996). Currently, most parts of China still use mixed collection methods (Sun et al, 2009) and landfill is still the main disposal method (Du et al, 2006).…”

Currently, municipal solid waste (MSW) is experiencing a massive increase in both the amount and composition throughout the world. Effective and efficient MSW management has been widely accepted as an emergent factor for future social development, which requires not only technical innovation, but also the involvement of all stakeholders as well as social, economic, and psychological components. On account of this reality, there is an urgent need for research related to the social dimensions of MSW management. In this paper, a systematic literature review was carried out to characterize and critically evaluate the published literature on the social dimensions of MSW management from 1980 to 2014 in terms of vulnerability, public participation, public attitude and behavior, and policy. A keyword search was first performed by using the Institute for Scientific Information (ISI) Web of Science, which retrieves 1843 documents. After removing the papers that were not closely related to the topic, 200 articles were retained for an in-depth review. In each category, major research issues and observations were summarized, and important insights were obtained. Besides compiling a related list of key references, the analysis results indicate that the global distribution of social dimensions reports on MSW management is inequitable and the research on the social dimensions of MSW management is insufficient, which may attract increased research interest and attention.

“…The main benefit of the new transfer station is the reduction in transportation costs. Indeed, there is saving on the consumption of the fuel and as such, the cost of the garbage transport is minimized (Sun et al, 2009). The transfer station offers citizens facilities for average are located 20 km away from the center of the city.…”

Waste management is one of the major challenges of urban management in Sub Saharan African countries. The current difficulties in the management of solid waste are the result of poor mastering of concepts, approaches, and techniques. This paper aims to study the Greenhouse gas reduction and cost-benefit through improving municipal solid waste management in Ouagadougou. Since the site location is important for collection optimization, the paper was focused on the research of the technique to achieve this goal with two identified methods, the gravity method and the Quantitative System for Business software (WinQSB). The result showed that both methods got the same coordinate system (12.36943601;-1.513841578) which corresponds to street 3.22, Dapoya, Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. The new site offers more benefits, especially in terms of cost reduction as well as greenhouse gas reduction. For example, ten million FCFA or twenty thousand 20,000 USD a year could be saved up.CO 2 emissions in the transport sector pose a key problem along with particle and NOx emissions. Also, 30 m 3 of gasoline is needed per week per truck to transport urban waste, which is released around 3,801.6 Kg of CO 2 per year by using an old transfer station. By considering the new transfer station because of the proximity of collection points, around 2,500.8 Kg of CO 2 per year is released which is less than CO 2 released in the old station.
