Landfilling

Past Policy

Change of concept – solid waste as a raw material

Hazards of continued landfilling:

 Air pollution and odor  Greenhouse gas emissions  Soil and groundwater contamination  Consumption of scarce land resources  Effects on public health  Economic implications

Availability of landfills and treatment of solid waste up to 2030

Existing situation



Indications are that in the existing situation, the solid waste market will become saturated already in 2014, with no solution for 14% of the quantity

separation of solid waste at source

 Contract with an end facility  Purchase of bins for sorting the waste into two streams  Purchase of trucks for collecting solid waste that was separated at

source

 Renovation and adaptation of garbage rooms and surfaces

in residential buildings

 Local activity to advertise, explain and educate  Operational assistance in the transition to separating the

waste at source plus other assistance

 Collection of solid waste in two separate streams – biodegradable

(“wet”) and dry

Stage B: Energy production from dry waste

 Solid waste that is not economically or technologically

recyclable will be used for the production of energy/fuel, as a preferred alternative over landfilling.

 The following technologies will be used to produce energy:

 RDF  Gasification  Pyrolysis  Plasma
