Landfilling is a critical method in managing massive generated C&D waste, and the appropriate selection of C&D waste landfill sites can reduce the impacts of landfilling. This study proposes an approach combined F-AHP and GIS to select suitable C&D waste landfills. The proposed model considers multiple factors from environmental, social and economic aspects. A case study of Shenzhen, China, is undertaken to showcase the implementation of the proposed model. It is found that about 25 million m2 of land has the potential to be used for C&D waste landfills in the study case, but the actual usable land is limited as some lands are too small for a landfill site. The study contributes to the waste management discipline as it provides an improved framework for selecting a landfill site. Besides, the landfill site selection procedure and results have practical implications for urban planning.
