Various researches sparked off by this contention have proved contradictory in some instances. This study attempts to examine the impact of sanitary landfills towards sustainable development in Nigeria using a case study of underground water quality in Kaduna State. This study examined twelve (12) parameters of physical and chemical (including heavy metals) namely Temperature (0C), pH, Nitrate (N0-3), Chloride (Cl-), Total Hardness (TH), Total Suspended Solid (TSS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Electrical conductivity (EC), Iron (Fe), Chromium (Cr3+), Cadmium (Cd), and Lead (Pb). It was discovered that nitrate (N0-3), electrical conductivity (EC), total alkalinity (TA), iron (Fe), lead (Pb) and copper (Cu) were above the WHO standard limit in some samples. The concentration of heavy metals and chemical parameters such as iron, lead, and copper were more available in groundwater around Samaru Landfill 2 and 3 while, nitrate was the only chemical parameter with a high concentration around Samaru Landfill 1. Results also indicated that groundwater within the range of Samaru Landfill 1 had less concentration of heavy metals than the other landfills. Toward the control of groundwater vulnerability to pollution through landfills for sustainable development, It was recommended that adequate and proper planning, design and construction, and strategic management disposal of waste be adopted and put in place....Preview Download Preview +Other Estate Management project topics and materials you might be interested in»Effect of building material cost on housing development in Nigeria»Effects of obsolescence on residential properties (a case study of Oparanozie street in Owerri, Imo state) »An assessment of residential housing problem in the urban areas of Nigeria (a case study of Umuahia urban)»Effect of environmental pollution on real estate development (a case study of Warri, Delta state)»Recreational Property Development in Owerri Imo State ( A Case Study of Owerri Municipal )»Problems of urban land management (a case study of Owerri capital territory) »Challenges associated with the valuation of specialized properties»Challenges associated with real estate investment in Enugu, Nigeria»The effect of oil spillage on residential property investment (a case study of Oyibo in Rivers state) »Effect of location on rental value of commercial property - a case study of Bida metropolis»The economic implication of multiple hostel accommodation in tertiary institution in Nigeria (a case study of federal polytechnic Nekede, Owerri) »Impact of land use act on property development in Nigeria»Land use regulations and its effects on land development»Comparative analysis of the impact of infrastructural facilities on the value of properties»The impact of Akwa ibom state university of science and technology on social development of mkpat enin L.G.A Akwa ibom state
