Case Study on Transfer Technology by Semi-aerobic Landfill Concept in African Region

—Transfer Technology under Lack of 6Ms—

Abstract

Many countries are recently facing serious threats such as natural disasters due to global warming. In many of the dumping sites in the African region, environmental problems and landslides/erosion collapses from heavy rains have become serious issues that need to be urgently addressed. In light of this situation, UN Habitat Fukuoka Office has requested (NPO) SWAN-Fukuoka to use the Fukuoka Method to construct a number of semi-aerobic landfills in Kenya and rehabilitate a dumping site there that suffered damages after a landslide in Ethiopia.
　In this paper, the author introduces two case studies of Transfer Technology in Kenya and Ethiopia under Lack of 6Ms.
