Abstract

An analysis of waste in the regions of Asian part of Russia is presented in the context of the need to transition to the principles of a circular economy. Based on statistical data on waste disposal, neutralization and generation, calculations were made and the dynamics of the product recycling rate were assessed for 27 regions of Asian part of Russia. A clustering of regions based on product recycling indicators was conducted. Factors hindering waste recycling development were identified and clusters of leaders and laggards in recycling were defined among regions of Asian part of Russia. Strategic directions for improving waste management efficiency have been identified and specific measures have been developed to reduce the burden on the natural ecosystem and the population in compliance with the principles of a circular economy.
