Abstract

The first COVID-19 case in Algeria, was registered on February 25, 2020, it concerns an Italian national. On November 5, 2020, the total number of infected persons reached 60169 cases and keeps on rising to the point that the curve does not follow the normal law. The present work tries to illustrate another implication caused by the coronavirus pandemic. We focus on the amount of waste produced during the containment caused by the coronavirus epidemic. Targeting three engineered landfill centers (ELCs) located in northeastern Algeria occupying three important wilayas (states) that are Guelma, Eltaref and Annaba, in different population densities. A variable trend increase in household waste quantity is determined during this study. Guelma shows an increase of about 20%, however, Eltaref shows an increase of 11%, while Annaba shows an increase of about 14%. An increase of the quantities of waste entering the landfills during the pandemic, which will have enormous impacts on technical management, on the leachate flow with its heavy environmental impacts and which will cause an early saturation of the cells, especially with the stopping of the recycling process due to security measures. This study highlights the need to re-examine the current management system in order to better manager similar crises in the future.

冠状病毒大流行对遏制期间家庭废物流的影响。
阿尔及利亚第一例 COVID-19 病例登记于 2020 年 2 月 25 日,涉及一名意大利人。2020 年 11 月 5 日,感染总人数达到 60169 例,并持续上升,以至于曲线不再遵循正常规律。本研究试图说明冠状病毒大流行造成的另一种影响。我们关注的是冠状病毒疫情在遏制过程中产生的垃圾量。我们以阿尔及利亚东北部的三个工程垃圾填埋中心(ELCs)为研究对象,这三个中心分别位于三个重要的州(Guelma、Eltaref 和 Annaba),人口密度各不相同。本研究确定了生活垃圾数量的不同增长趋势。盖尔马的增幅约为 20%,而艾尔塔雷夫的增幅为 11%,安纳巴的增幅约为 14%。在大流行病期间,进入垃圾填埋场的垃圾数量增加,这将对技术管理、沥滤液的流动及其对环境的严重影响产生巨大影响,并将导致细胞的早期饱和,特别是由于安全措施而停止回收过程。这项研究强调了重新审查现有管理系统的必要性,以便更好地管理未来的类似危机。
