MANAGEMENT OF BIOWASTE
Marešová, Karolina
Management of municipal bio-waste ABSTRACT The thesis submitted is a part of solution of the research pilot project PPA03/CZ/7/8 called "Management of bio-waste from municipal solid waste and composting in the Czech Republic". The project was supported by the Czech Ministry of Environment and it was designed and sponsored by the Dutch company Tebodin. The project was realized in Uherske Hradiste. The project's aim was to provide information for creation of the national strategy for biowaste to be diverted from the landfill. The obligation to create this strategy is a consequence of the European Landfill Directive 1999/31. The thesis evaluates results of the project aimed primarily at sorting, collection and the composition analysis of biowaste and mixed waste in selected areas of Uherske Hradiste. The thesis shows values of selected waste parameters - weight, volume, specific weight and composition. Public awareness campaign stimulating biowaste separation behaviour was a part of the project as well. The campaign comprised questionnaire surveys whose results are included in this thesis. In cooperation with the Research Institute of Agricultural Technology and Institute of Macromolecular Chemistry in Prague the dissolubility of biodegradable plastics d2w produced by the company Symphony Environmental in...

Management of biowaste in CR

In the Czech Republic, there are fewer examples of separated collection of biologically degradable municipal waste in contrary to more developed EU countries. This situation could be resolved by such pilot projects that are already finished as well as still in progress. These projects are focused mainly on expected quantity, quality and composition of biologically degradable waste in particular cities and villages. According to results of the projects it is important to start changes in the system of biologically degradable waste treatment as soon as possible and throughout the whole cycle. The main driver for these changes is EU legislation that obliges to decrease a share of biologically degradable waste that ends up at landfill. In case the Czech Republic or any other EU country does not comply with the limits, there is a threat of high penalties. To make the new system work it will be necessary to take into account circumstances in particular villages and cities and primarily to secure disposal of the final products. Last but not least, it is crucial to inform and involve citizens. According to many studies, separated biologically degradable municipal waste is the highest-quality entrance material that can be used in the additional processing of treatment.
