The research expanded the different understanding for each phase for waste management which are waste collection, transfer station and landfill or recycling plan, and will focas on the main creteria and new technolgies used in each phase which affect the planning of cities and the final closure of landfill, and will developed an analysis for Great Cairo Region areas to evaluate its current situation in current waste management strategy for each phase and different areas amount of wastes.
