Poor waste management poses a several challenges to the well-being of the city residents,
particularly those living adjacent the dump sites due to the potential of the waste to pollute water,
food sources, land, air and vegetation, Orogeny [2]
The growing concerns of health and environmental risks in the landfill area are now becoming more
serious as different incompatible land uses are surrounding the site. In countries like Ethiopia, where
there is a general lack of awareness of the risk associated with long serving open solid waste dump
sites. There have been very little studies of this nature in Ethiopia. The present waste disposal site,
therefore, is not acceptable to use for disposal purposes and necessary remedial measures have to be
under taken at the earliest.
This book presents a refreshed, design-led approach to waste-to-energy (WTE) plants, reflecting work
done at Harvard’s Graduate School of Design over a period of three years. Architecture and design
currently play a minor role in the design and construction of industrial building types, especially
waste-to-energy facilities. As densities increase and consumption patterns change, the need for more
waste-to-energy facilities is only going to increase. Through comparing the well-established waste-to-
energy industries in Sweden with less established engagements in the northeast of the United States,
opportunities and lessons are revealed. Architects have a role to play in integrating waste-to-energy
plants physically and programmatically within their urban or suburban contexts, as well as potentially
lessening the generally negative perception of energy recovery plants.
it is seen that the architecture and architects have no or minimal role in this waste management
systems
.they offer no amenities beyond their core function, no opportunities for visitors or communities to
engage, and only minimal integration with their built and natural surroundings.
.
Architecture has always taught us to work for the betterment of the society our surroundings,
environment etc. Identifying the proper concern regarding a certain issue which has been harming the
society and then giving a thoughtful approach to it and arriving at a solution which may not be the
one silver bullet but will definitely work for the betterment of the people and region or the country
we are serving to.
Achieving sustainable development goals from the perspective of solid waste management plans
According to the statistics issued by the World Bank, the world generates 2.01 billion tons of MSW
annually, and at least 33% of it is not managed in an environmentally safe manner. Without
improvements in the SWM sector, emissions related to solid waste are probably to increase to 2.6
billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent by 2050 ad [16]. Environmentally sound management of solid
waste will help reduce the spread of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses in the atmosphere.

The main objective of this study was to demonstrate the relationship between the architectural
quality and protection of the natural environment through the technological solutions applied
Geo-environmental assessment and geophysical investigations were carried out over the only
functional municipal solid waste disposal site of the city of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, known locally as
Koshe. The accumulated wastes from Koshe have impact on the surrounding human and physical
environment since the disposal site was not designed. The study deserves emphasis because the city
of Addis Ababa currently obtains a considerable portion of its domestic water supply from a well field
developed not much farther from and along a groundwater flow direction in relation to the waste
disposal site. It was found out that the leachates from the site contain high concentration of biological
oxygen demand, chemical oxygen demand, chloride and sulphate besides high concentration of
cobalt, nickel and zinc in the surrounding soils. The geophysical results have mapped weak zones and
near-vertical discontinuities that could potentially be conduits for the leachate from the wastes into
the deep groundwater system. Further, a zone of potential leachate migration from the landfill was
identified from the electrical models; the location of this zone is consistent with the predicted
direction of groundwater flow across the site. The results further suggested that the open dump site
tends to cause increasing amount of pollution on the surrounding soil, surface and ground waters.
Furthermore, it was observed that the Koshe waste disposal site has grown beyond its capacity and
the poor management of the open dump landfill has reduced the aesthetic value of the surrounding
environments. The need to change/relocate the existing waste disposal site to a more suitable and
technologically appropriate site is emphasized.

The accumulated wastes on Koshe have an impact on the surrounding human and physical
environment since the disposal site was not designed.The results further suggested that the open
dump site tends to cause an increasing amount of pollution on the surrounding soil, surface, and
ground waters. Furthermore, it was observed that the Koshe waste disposal site has grown beyond its
capacity and the poor management of the open dump landfill has reduced the aesthetic value of the
surrounding environments
This problames show on the solid waste disposal site of the city of Addis Ababa koshe Because the
disposal site was not designed well, the accumulated wastes on Koshe have an impact on the
surrounding human and physical environment. The findings also indicated that the open dump site
causes an increasing amount of pollution to the surrounding soil, surface, and ground waters.
Furthermore, the Koshe waste disposal site has outgrown its capacity, and the open dump landfill's
poor management has reduced the aesthetic value of the surrounding environments.
Those problems also appear on the only functional solid waste disposal site of the city of Addis Ababa
koshe Because the disposal site was not designed well, the accumulated wastes on Koshe have an
impact on the surrounding human and physical environment. The findings also indicated that the
open dump site causes an increasing amount of pollution to the surrounding soil, surface, and ground
waters. Furthermore, the Koshe waste disposal site has outgrown its capacity, and the open dump
landfill's poor management has reduced the aesthetic value of the surrounding environments.
On 11 March 2017, a garbage landslide at the Koshe Garbage Dump in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia killed
115 people
The results further suggested that the open dump site tends to cause increasing amount of pollution
on the surrounding soil, surface and ground waters. Furthermore, it was observed that the Koshe
waste disposal site has grown beyond its capacity and the poor management of the open dump
landfill has reduced the aesthetic value of the surrounding environments. The need to
change/relocate the existing waste disposal site to a more suitable and technologically appropriate
site is emphasized.
1, To achieve The relationship between ‘usefulness’ and ‘quality’ in architecture on this large waste
disposal projects
2, to create spaces that encourage deep reflection and thinking which would change perceptions and
actions on solid waste management centers
1. To create awareness of waste management and convince people how they can contribute to the
betterment of the environment by using recycled materials.
,To design other activities and waste process through the merging of architecture and landscape to
create public engagement and break the
physical and mental border between the public and waste, as well as the raising awareness of
recycling.
1.4 Research questions
Addis Ababa was established in 1886. It has an area of 540 sq km. It lies between 2000 and 3000 m
above sea level. Despite its proximity to the equator, Addis Ababa enjoys a mild, Afro-Alpine
temperate and warm temperate climate. The lowest and the highest annual average temperature are
about 10 °C and 25 °C. Annual rainfall is around 1200 mm. In the projection, however, we assumed
Addis would grow in the same proportion as the overall urban population of the country .
Addis Ababa is the capital city of the country with great geographical diversity endowed with rich
natural and human resource base. To undergo its administration activities, Addis Ababa is divided into
11 sub cities.
According to the experts of Addis Ababa Solid Waste Management Agency, in the city, the formal
waste management sector is characterized by the primary collection, carried out mainly by per-
collector associations, the secondary collection, and final disposal, mostly carried out by the
government..
