Recycling is good business Cost savings and efficiency: Commercial recycling and compost services can save you 30-50 percent on your garbage service bill. Reducing garbage service immediately saves your business money. Customer/employee demand: Customers increasingly want to support ‘green’ businesses, and 82 percent of American adults say they are aware of a business’s green practices.1 Recycling and waste reduction practices are some of the most visible ways to demonstrate your commitment to green practices. Compliance: The City of Seattle prohibits businesses from putting recyclables such as cardboard, paper, yard debris, and selected construction materials in the garbage.2 The City also bans certain materials, such as Styrofoam™ and single-use plastic bags, from being given out to customers. Creating effective recycling programs for these materials will help ensure your business is in compliance and avoids fines. Environment: Businesses have a substantial impact on climate change through everyday activities. The U.S. EPA has estimated that the full life cycle of materials – from sourcing to use and disposal – makes up nearly half of our collective carbon footprint.3 By adopting waste reduction practices, business can lower their greenhouse gas emissions, create less pollution, and support a healthier community.4 Economy and jobs: Recycling protects and expands U.S.

  • “Violet” Refused-Derived Fuel from Municipal Solid Waste to Reduce Landfills (Refresh DANUBE)
    Working Group “VIOLET” Refused-Derived Fuel from Municipal Solid Waste to reduce landfills (REFREsh DANUBE) ABSTRACT The REFREsh Danube project aims to reduce the landfilled amount of municipal solid waste, which is a source of water and soil pollution, by its use as refuse-derived fuel in the cement industry of Novi Sad (Serbia). The main actors involved are Lafarge Beočin Cement Factory, Municipality of Novi Sad, JPK Čistoća (waste-management company) and experts from interdisciplinary fields. The project addresses societal challenges on climate change, air, water and soil pollution as well as using the municipal solid waste as an alternative energy source in response to H2020 and Europe 2020 Strategy. KEYWORDS Leachate Water pollution MSW RDF Cement industry AUTHORS KIŠJUHAS Aleksej, from University of Novi Sad (SERBIA) KODNIK Danijela, from University of Trieste (ITALY) SHKRELI Eltjana, from Universiteti i Shkodrës “Luigj Gurakuqi” (ALBANIA) TORBOLI Valentina, from University of Trieste (ITALY) UDREA Ana-Maria, from “Babes-Bolyai” University (ROMANIA) ŽABAR Romina, from University of Nova Gorica (SLOVENIA) 139 BACKGROUND OF THE PROBLEM The environment is the basis for economy, because the economy depends on natural resources in order to satisfy the constant growing human needs, but in order to preserve the environment for future generations we need to develop mechanisms for protecting the environment without reducing the economic activity and conducting economic activities without destroying the environ- ment. Then a question arises: How can we use our resources for achieving a certain economic growth and at the same time contribute to the environmental conservation? Where is the balance? Are landfills causing health and environmental problems, or they might be used as economic resources? It all depends on human awareness and ac- tions.

  • Waste Management
    Environment Committee Waste management The Environment Committee is investigating aspects of London’s waste generation, handling and disposal, to inform the development of work under the Mayor’s Environment Strategy and other policies. The three aspects for particular focus are: • Waste reduction and the circular economy • Recycling • Energy from waste The investigation will seek to build on past work of the committee and identify recommendations to the Mayor and perhaps other London actors. Background London generates a huge amount of waste (about 20 million tonnes in 20101), of many types from earth and cement to plastics, paper and organic material. The main destinations for London’s bulk waste are recycling, incineration as fuel to generate electricity and/or heat buildings, and landfill. Of course the amount of waste to manage can be reduced by using less material in the first place, or by passing goods on to another user, rather than discarding them with the rubbish. The waste hierarchy The ‘waste hierarchy’ places these alternatives in a preferred order based on their environmental and quality of life impacts. 1 Of which, nearly half was construction, demolition and excavation waste (CDE), nearly a third commercial and industrial waste, with municipal (mainly household) waste only 20%. Most CDE waste is re-used or recycled in some form; municipal waste has the lowest recycling rate and the highest landfill. Data from the (previous) Mayor’s Business Waste Strategy https://www.london.gov.uk/what-we-do/environment/environment-publications/mayors-business-waste-management- strategy (see p25) and Municipal Waste Strategy https://www.london.gov.uk/sites/default/files/municipal_waste_final.pdf (see p26) Page 1 of 11 Environment Committee Waste management Since 2000, landfill (at the bottom of the hierarchy) has reduced considerably, but in recent years waste reduction and recycling (high to medium in the hierarchy) have stagnated and further waste diverted from landfill has instead shifted to incineration (low in the hierarchy).
