Industrial Zoning with AHP & Weighted Overlay in Hamedan Province (Case Study: Petroleum Industry)

  Petrochemical Industry development and attention to environmental issues as well as the sustainable use of all means possible to locate the optimal area of land is one of the important issues in recent years, has been the focus of environmental management. The present study aims to assess the area and zoning with the appropriate username and petrochemical industries, in order to plan and create a regional balance, according to the capabilities and environmental conditions suitable to locate the user's industry.
Method of study: In this study, the ecological and Non-ecological parameters necessary for analysis, to weighting these factors using a hierarchical analysis process was action. Then The nineteenth-layer information (land use, slope, hydrology, aspect, elevation, climate, soil aggregation, soil depth, soil erosion, distance from the airport, away from the cities, away from the villages, away from roads and highways ,away from the dams and lagoons, away from protected areas, distance to industry, distance from fault, distance from the power lines, the distance from the gas and oil pipelines), in the GIS, the methodology, the weighted overlay was analyzed. The results of this study, it suggests that the north and west Province (Kabudarahang, Famenin, Razan and Asadabad), In terms of ecological properties, the ratio has been better and should be the first priority planning.
Discussion and Therefore, if industrial development, budget and facilities are available at the optimum, can be used to plan for the future development of the industry in these cities act. The results of this research will help policy-makers and decision-makers so that they can be based on a more detailed plan. The results show that two AHP and Weighted overlay in the GIS in zoning of industry is capable performance that corresponded with research in other areas
