    MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE CHARACTERISTICS AND MANAGEMENT IN SINOP, TURKEY
    (Gh Asachi Technical Univ Iasi, 2016) Turan, Nurdan Gamze; Baki, Oylum Gokkurt; Ergun, Osman Nuri
    This paper presents municipal solid waste (MSW) responsibility and management structure in Sinop, Turkey together with the current situation of collection, recycling, transport and disposal of MSW. In order to examine the MSW management, a long-term study was conducted between 1994 and 2010. In this study, physical composition of MSW was determined. Proximate analysis (moisture content, density and calorific value) and ultimate analysis (carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, sulfur and ash) of the MSW were also done. Based on the survey results, an integrated MSW management plan is proposed and presented. In Sinop, a mean of 175 tons of MSW are generated each day or 1.71 kg/day/capita. Approximately 50% of the MSW generated were collected, and the mean density of these is 162 kg/m(3). MSW in Sinop has high moisture content and low calorific value, making aerobic composting the best treatment strategy. Composting can help to divert more than 60% of the total waste and will lead to enormous savings in cost of waste collection, transport and disposal. The remaining waste can be disposed off in a sanitary landfill.

    Recycling of Municipal Solid Waste in Sinop, Turkey: Practices, Problems and Challenges
    (2020) Bakı, Oylum Gokkurt; Ergun, Osman Nuri; Nogay, Ahu
    In this study, recycling potentiality of municipal solid wastes of the province of Sinop, being a significant coastal town of Central Black Sea in terms of tourism. The studies related to nonhazardous kinds of wastes formed within the borders of the province have been assessed. The compositions and the changes in the amounts of the wastes formed in the province have been analyzed and assessed in association with the consumption habits. The composition of the recyclable wastes among the municipal solid wastes in the province and the management of these wastes have been studied. The amount of municipal solid wastes occurred has been determined and the mount of the wastes recycled by these wastes has been detected and thus the recycling activities started in the region have been evaluated. Recycling activities started in some regions of the province for recyclable urban wastes such as paper, carton, glass, metal and plastic etc., which are of high incidence within waste composition have been assessed. The analysis and evaluation of the studies conducted to some districts of the city related to packing wastes and management have been conducted. Therefore, applicability of recycling works and management of municipal solid waste in the city has been assessed and besides this “sustainability” has been researched. Furthermore, research and evaluation on production, collection- transportation, recycling applications and phases of these wastes, having an economic value and evaluation on the issue have been carried out in the study.

    Study on coastal management planning- The case of Sinop Peninsula
    (Middle East Technical University, 2013) Baki, Oylum Gökkurt; Ergun, Osman Nuri
    Coastal areas have always been attractive for communities; throughout the history, people have initially settled at coastal areas and established their civilizations on coastal zones. With their characteristically natural structures, coasts have been distinctive areas allowing both economical and social development of communities and taking important part in development of a country. This study revealed the problems and brought alternative coastal usage suggestions for Sinop Peninsula located on Middle Black Sea coast. Problem-centered approach was preferred in the study. First, the existing problem was analyzed based on the problems revealed as a result of the analyses, and then possible solutions were presented. SWOT analysis was conducted in the planning phase of the study, this method sought to provide a starting point so as to ensure best analysis of the data to be obtained for the coastal management activity of the city, and to perform the planning in the optimal way. To this end, the existing strengths and weaknesses were determined taking into account the internal and external factors. In the study, the coastal area was divided into 2 zones as intervened and non-intervened zones. It was revealed what kind of intervention has been made on the intervened coasts, and it was determined where the intervened points were located. These determinations were performed by the measurements conducted on the terrain, and the data obtained were digitized in GIS medium of 1/25.000 sheets, added into GIS medium as raster data, and shown on the maps. As a result of the study, it was considered necessary to plan alternatives that will minimize the threats to result from the existing and potential environmental pressures situated in coastal zone of Sinop, to start the applications of provision of clean waste generation or waste minimization through control of the pollution systematically, to improve environmental quality in urban areas, and to use this as a threshold for increasing total environmental quality and awareness. The study also revealed the requirement of protecting the public use areas, taking all infrastructural measures, developing prevention and rehabilitation principles at the areas where there are pollutant elements and deterioration in the coastal zone.
