dc.description.abstractThe aim of the study is to assess the renewability of the urban texture in Canakkale, to recycling and renewable energy resources within the scope of sustainability of physical, ecologic, and social life cycles. Urban development is revealed in concepts like ecologic, smart, sustainable, and green town for town concepts. Within the framework of sustainable town approaches, this study assesses Canakkale at the point of green space planning; urban solid, gas, and liquid waste management and planning; and recycling of agricultural waste by researching cyclical operations and processes and literature studies. Additionally, SWOT analysis is performed on the rapidly changing and developing sustainable structure in Canakkale with attempts made to develop recommendations about the status in the near future. The study is important as no similar study has been performed in Canakkale and in terms of partly illuminating the potential of the town as a sustainable town. The green space per person of 3.05 m(2) is well below the standards and is indicated as one of the leading results within the scope of the study. This situation makes it mandatory to increase planning for esthetic and functional green space within the town in general. Additionally, the water sample after treatment in the wastewater treatment plant had total suspended solid matter of 29 mg/L and was identified at ideal levels. Chemical and biochemical oxygen demands provided similar results. As a result, it was revealed that river water does not represent a risk in terms of human health. Within the scope of notable points, with multiple management and planning strategies, rational steps should be taken about renewability and recycling of solid, liquid, and gas wastes. Rational use of all natural and cultural resources by administrators and local government with cooperation of non-governmental organizations will improve the current conditions in Canakkale and make considerable strides to becoming a sustainable city.
