Original Abstract

Maximum possible utilization of renewable sources as well as minimization of waste production and preference of recycling is definitely a positive trend. Global economic crisis, however, brought about several aspects that have been neglected before. It is difficult to find market for much of sorted PET bottles and paper and thus sorting itself and recycling unfortunately losses its meaning. This gives rise to a question, whether current procedures and technologies are appropriate or not. This article tries to offer a new approach which lies in maximizing waste processing (sorting, recycling, incineration, etc.) at the site of its production, along with emphasis to maximize efficiency of waste treatment by minimization of transport distances, labour costs and usage of synergic effects of different several technologies in an open central controlled system called "MICROREGION".

Keywords
