摘要

在南非西北省的摩西科塔内市进行了一项研究，以确定和量化影响家庭和企业产生的城市固体废物管理效率的因素。从171个家庭和企业收集了关于发展中城市城市固体废物管理效率的24项社会经济、卫生和环境指标的数据。研究的具体目标是评估目前收集和处置城市固体废物的效率水平，并建立一个框架，可用于提高目前管理城市固体废物的效率水平。根据加拿大标准协会制定的ISO 14000和ISO 14031标准，对城市固体废物管理效率进行了评估。结果表明，在被研究的企业中，约67%的企业在城市固体废物管理方面效率低下，而约33%的企业在城市固体废物管理方面效率很高。城市固体废物管理的效率受到3个预测变量的显著影响(缺乏对城市废物管理章程的遵守，无法执行城市固体废物管理章程，以及对适当废物管理的潜在利益的错误认识。

Predictors Of Efficiency In Municipal Solid Waste Management In Moses Kotane Municipality In The North-West Province Of South Africa

A study was conducted in the Moses Kotane Municipality (MKM) in the North-West Province of South Africa in order to identify and quantify factors that affect efficiency in the management of municipal solid waste generated by households and businesses. Data was collected from a combination of 171 households and businesses on 24 socioeconomic, sanitary and environmental indicators of efficiency in the management of municipal solid waste in developing municipalities. The specific objectives of study were to assess the current level of efficiency in the collection and disposal of municipal solid waste, and to construct a framework that could be used for improving the current level of efficiency in the management of municipal solid waste. Efficiency in the management of municipal solid waste was assessed by using ISO 14000 and ISO 14031 standards defined by the Canadian Standards Association. The results showed that about 67% of businesses selected for the study were inefficient in municipal solid waste management, whereas about 33% of them were efficient. Efficiency in the management of municipal solid waste was significantly influenced by 3 predictor variables (lack of adherence to municipal bylaws on waste management, inability to enforce municipal bylaws on municipal solid waste management, and wrong perception on the potential benefits of proper waste management.

期刊介绍： GIS Business with ISSN no. 1430-3663 is bimonthly UGC Approved journal for publication of research papers related to planning, managment, GIS, geography, geology, geoinformatics, earth sciences, remote sensing, satellites, GPS, coodinate systems, urban planning, spatial studies, human settlements, and many more related subjects. Remote sensing is the art and science of making measurements of the earth using sensors on airplanes or satellites and geographic information system (GIS) is a computer-based tool for mapping and analyzing feature events on earth. It integrates common database operations, such as query and statistical analysis, with maps. The open access journal GIS Business is a scientific journal that includes a wide range of fields in its discipline and reports the acquisition of information about an object or phenomenon without making physical contact with the object. It allows to view and analyse multiple layers of spatially related information associated with a geographic region/location. It publishes all concerned research findings and discoveries pertaining to the ingredients and their mode of therapeutic nature to create a platform for the authors to make their contribution towards the journal.
