Content
• Introduction• Status of recycling• The five main challenges for
increased recycling• Current and planned
projects within recycling
Introduction / LegislationLEGISLATION
•Waste Management Strategy of the Republic of Croatia (2005)•Waste Management Plan of the Republic of Croatia for 2007-2015
• Waste Act (OG No. 178/04, 111/09, 60/08, 87/09)
• 2 Regulations and 19 Ordinances
2004 - 2009 – transposition of EU legislation/waste – completed
Introduction / Legislation
INSTITUTIONS •Ministry of Environmental Protection, Physical Planning and Construction
general policy, legislation + enforcement (inspection)
•Croatian Environment Agency (CEA)data, information system, reporting
•Environment Protection and Energy Efficiency Fund (EPEEF) co-financing waste projects, organization of collection/recovery schemes (fee
collection)
•Regional / local offices (env.prot.) in counties (21) and municipalities/towns (556):
waste management plans preparation, permits, measures-municipal waste, separate collection
Introduction / Current situation
Improvements in waste management:
• Measures for increase of separate collection/ recovery/ recycling – implementing (collection schemes and treatment facilities for special waste categories)
• Remediation of landfills and hot-spots - in progress (2010: 92 municipal landfills remediated, 649 wild dumpsites remediated)
• Construction of waste management centres (WMC) – in preparation,
• Information system – developing
• Economic instruments - introduced (charges for burdening environment with waste; fees for puting the certain products on the market)
Status of recycling (1)MUNICIPAL WASTE
393 kg / inhabitant (1 743 211 t) - 2009
Coverage by organized collection: 93% ~ 200 collection companies
87% -mixed municipal waste - Landfilled, without treatment
separately collected fractions (bulky waste included) 227 873 t (13%) in 2009 – not all for recoveryImproving, but not enough
- Bins on public areas (paper, glass),- Recycling yards - Collection schemes for special waste categories
Status of recycling (2)SPECIAL WASTE CATEGORIES
for which concessions are given for collection and treatment / recovery
-Fee collection from producers/importers of product, -compensation of expences for collection/treatment/recovery Environment Protection and Energy Efficiency Fund (EPEEF)
New facilities for treatment/recovery put in operation
Status of recycling (3)
Tyres- max 30% from collected to be used for energy purposes (cement kilns)
1. Waste management centres (county, regional) – to be constructed by end 2018 (based on MBT + 1 WtE plant)
2. Further co-financing of various projects by EPEEF directed to •Prevention and minimization•Construction of WM centres•Recovery / recycling•Cleaner production
3. Other initiatives i.e. Utilisation of waste for energy purpose – recognized potential for cogeneration plants on biomass
