Duo to the increasing rate of urban population and the production of a great amount of urban waste at once in recent decades, the management of how to dispose them is necessary. The lack of proper national policy for the management of solid waste management (SWM) has caused environmental damages in Iran.

The purpose of this study was to locate suitable landfills for solid waste in Miyan Rahan city of Kermanshah province, based on natural and human criteria and other criteria. To achieve this aim, 8 natural and human standards and criteria, including slope, geology, fault, land-use layers, well dispersions depth of groundwater, distance from Urban and rural settlements centers, and distance from the road, were used. After preparing and standardizing the layers and using the Fuzzy logic model and operator modeling (AND), the zoning of appropriate landfill place has been proceeded. The result shows that 98% of the area is completely inappropriate, and most of the area is suitable and fully suitable about 2% of the area is located in the east and south-eastern part of the Dinavar District on the Sonqor-Kermanshah road.
