Age Structure and Municipal Waste Generation and Recycling – New Challenge for the Circular Economy
Original language description
Municipal waste generation and treatment represent important parts in the circular economy approach, which is being more and more soundly promoted by the European Union among its members. While the issue of industrial waste stream is developing quite progressively, the issue of municipal waste remains a challenge. Compared to the industry, municipalities tend to produce a greater diversity of waste with lower overall recycling rates, and therefore the approach to deal with it has to be more complex. Municipalities play a very important role in promoting the prevention and separation of the waste produced by its citizens. But in order to that effectively, it is necessary to identify how various groups of people behave in terms of their waste generation and tendencies to separate their waste. In our study we have examined the relationships between the age structure of people in the municipalities, their municipal solid waste generation per capita, and their per capita waste separation levels.
