dc.description.abstractThe provincial administrations related to solid waste management continue to experience a wide range of problems and the control of solid wastes is getting harder day by day. Municipal solid waste management still poses a serious global and national problem due to various issues such as failure to implement effective plans, programs and policies for sustainable solid waste management, unqualified people working in management units and/or people performing duties with unclear responsibilities and powers, lack of fully-ensured coordination between units and administrations and insufficient laws and regulations. This negatively affects sustainability in solid waste management. Life cycle assessment (LCA) generally includes data collection and calculations of the input and output flows for the determination of their respective environmental impacts throughout the entire product life cycle. In other words, life cycle impact assessment evaluates products or processes from cradle to grave. Life cycle assessment is increasingly used in waste management to identify strategies that prevent or minimize negative impacts on ecosystems, human health and natural resources. In the management planning of solid wastes, the general principles and framework for the life cycle assessment are explained by the ISO 14040 standardization to evaluate the effects from raw material supply including resource efficiency to its final disposal. The amount of solid waste produced across Turkey is unfortunately an indicator of the lack of solid waste control and its negative effects on the environment and public health. Therefore, LCA, an approach offering a different perspective to solid waste management and inadequate management planning, was discussed in this study. Examples of the importance and necessity of LCA in solid waste management planning and its applications are presented.
