Abstract

Disturbing and polluting occupations, as phenomena that arise from the inappropriate and unorganized location of some production, industrial and service activities in urban spaces, have adverse effects on the physical and mental health of citizens as well as the appearance of cities. Disturbing jobs in big cities, including Isfahan city, have made the lives of citizens a problem, and this problem has had more serious consequences in residential areas. In the present study, the spatial distribution of nuisance occupations in Isfahan city, and the types of nuisances and pollutions caused by them, including roadblocks, air pollution, noise pollution, vibration, waste accumulation, and chemical pollution have been studied and investigated. The research method is analytical and causal, and the required data is collected by field method. The priorities of thirteen urban areas for organizing nuisance job units have been determined using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method and using Expert Choice software. The results of the research show that in terms of the types of pollution and disturbances studied, areas 3, 7 and 10 have a worse condition, so they are suggested as the first priorities for organizing.
