Cycles and Etagers in New System of Municipal Solid Waste Management in Russian Federation

Abstract

Analysis of the first results of adoption in RF since January 2019 of the new system of management of municipal solid waste (MSW) and comparison of them with the world experience has been performed, and it has been shown that the principal results supposed to be obtained in the next years, but, the authors believe, that the trends have been chosen correctly and it is possible to hope that the raised problems will be solved successfully. It has been shown that the proposed concept of the life cycles and etageres (whatnots) in the new system of management of MSW in RF does allow to optimize the practical steps, directed to realization of the zero landfilling "No landfills – no waste" principle. By this, due to the separate collecting of MSW, their additional sorting and using the modern technologies complex one can secure environmental safety of population and realize the principles of sustainable cyclic (circular) economy.
