Hefty Strong Large Trash Bags - 33 Gallon, 48 Count

How beautiful to organize a separate collection of garbage in your kitchen?

Separate waste collection is essential for efficient recycling and reduction of environmental pollution. However, to organize this process in an apartment is quite time-consuming: garbage containers take up a lot of space and look unaesthetic. There are several ways and devices to organize separate collection of garbage in the kitchen.
Specialized Containers

Buying special containers for separate storage of garbage will help save a significant amount of space . There are several types of containers:

Containers with compartments. This is a large container for garbage, which inside is divided into several small compartments.
Separate containers sold in the kit . Tanks of the same size, made in the same style.
Containers with filter . Urns for collecting food waste, equipped with a filter that does not allow unpleasant smell to spread.
Bags-containers . The project of the Berlin company, which is a set of four bright bags that can be hung on the wall. Such containers will become an interesting part of kitchen design, and most importantly - the bags themselves can also be recycled and recycled.
High bins . Such tanks are equipped with three compartments - upper, middle and lower. Minimalistic style and compact fit for any size kitchen and design.

Decorated Bins

Trash bin is optional to hide. There are many containers made in different colors. Choose a container that fits into the overall design of the kitchen and will be in harmony with it. Capacity for garbage can be decorated with your own hands. It is enough to purchase a metal or plastic container and turn it into a valuable piece of furniture with the help of paints.

Tip! The container must be equipped with a lid. This will make the container more aesthetic and prevent the spread of unpleasant odor in the apartment.

Container locations

In a small kitchen, garbage containers standing on the floor will take up a lot of space and clutter up space. Container for garbage in this case should be placed compactly.

Place under the sink

Storage of garbage containers under the sink is one of the most common solutions in Russia. So they do not attract too much attention and save space. However, the high humidity that accumulates in this place is a great disadvantage. Because of it, garbage decomposes faster, which means that an unpleasant smell spreads more intensively around the room.

Drawer

The deep drawer allows you to store several small containers in it for different types of garbage. In order to throw out the waste, it is not necessary to bend down and look for the necessary container in the dark. It is enough to push the compartment and put the garbage in a certain container.

Suspended containers

Such containers are made in the form of small boxes. They are attached to the inside of the cabinet door, which saves space on the floor. The box is not deep, so for separate collection of garbage will need to use several lockers.


Countertop Containers

Suitable for food waste and for small garbage. Take up one deep drawer and can be connected to a sewer for washing a container.

A wide variety of types of containers for separate garbage collection allows you to organize this process in an apartment of any size.

Modern kitchen sets are also equipped with convenient compartments and devices for storing containers so that they do not take up extra space and are easily accessible.

How to separate household waste

The second Kronstadt campaign “Razdeleny Draft” on receiving recycled materials from the population and its subsequent recycling took place on Saturday, April 4. 173 people took part in it: 169 Kronstadters (among them 8 volunteers), two residents of neighboring Sestroretsk, two from the Krasnogvardeisky district of St. Petersburg. Together, they collected 550 kilograms of waste paper, 16.5 bags of glass, 11 bags of plastic labeled "1" in the triangle, two plastic bags with "5" in the triangle, one and a half bags - with "2" and "4" in the triangle, three bag with Tetrapack packaging, two metal bags, an aluminum bag and 30 pieces of discs.

The interest of the public has grown - questions have begun
The overall result was twice as large as the results of the first meeting of Kronstadt environmentalists. But the interest in separate collection of waste accepted for recycling from the public did not increase by a factor of two - every five!

Volunteers just showered questions. Why do you take cardboard and do not take wallpaper? Why not take the paper packaging from under the eggs? What if there is no marking? Do I need to wash the bottles and remove the label from them? These and other issues were discussed at the site at the Kronstadt Palace of Youth, where now every first Saturday of the month will be a collection point for recycling. Answers
on them you can find right now, looking into the group "Razdelny Collection - Kronstadt"
in the social network "VKontakte". A full list of what is accepted on the stock is also published there.

Another question that worried the participants: “Where are the collected recycled materials taken?”
I inform you: after the action, waste paper, glass and PET plastic with the marking “1” volunteers loaded the arriving vehicle of the company “Rus Recycling Company” and sent it for recycling. Tin and the remaining plastic labeled "2", "4", "5" was transferred to the company "Util". And aluminum cans were referred to the Kronstadt reception center for non-ferrous metal “Medium” on Zosimov street.

People were also interested: “Who gets money from recycling and what are they going to do?”
I answer: all the proceeds from the sale of recyclables go to the development of the activity of the ecological movement “Separate Collection”, which already has 25 collection points in St. Petersburg (Kronstadt is listed under No. 24). It is with this money that folding urns, T-shirts with the correct slogans for volunteers, flyers are needed for distribution on promotions. Transportation of recycled materials to the place of processing is also partially paid.

Master class for children and housewives
During the first half hour, 60 people visited the reception center. People came and thanked volunteers for the gift of the opportunity to competently get rid of things cluttering up kitchens, balconies, pantries ... Smiling, positive, interested in or long engaged in the idea of ​​making the world a bit cleaner, people said that by deliberate step - to collect recyclable materials and recycle it - they were driven by a landfill that was growing by the day.

The adults brought the children and explained to them what was going on here. A kind of master class! Children happily stamped on plastic bottles with their feet (by the way, try to flatten all the collected plastic at home). Not only that - among the volunteers there were also children: eight-year-old Arina and Violetta playfully packaged recycled materials in separate bags.

The hostesses immediately shared tips on how to arrange space in the kitchen for separate garbage collection. After all, not everyone has a separate empty room. The couple, who came from Sestroretsk, have where to put seven identical cardboard boxes for collecting glass, paper, iron and plastic of several kinds. Lyuba, who lives in Kronstadt, has no such place in the apartment. Rather, it was not. Until recently. On Saturday, she brought to the stock unnecessary glass jars and admitted that she disassembled the mezzanine specifically in order to more actively join the movement "Separate Collection".


Love: “I used to justify my inaction by simply putting nowhere in the house for recycling. But now my mother and I have found a way out. We will collect plastic, glass and metal and pass it in for recycling. I remember in my childhood dad always said: “If you want ice cream, go hand over the bottles”.

Introduce the idea into the life of every family!
"Why did you decide to join the movement" Shared Collection "?"
The Kronstadters answered this question about the same thing: “I cannot look at the growing landfill”, “I feel sorry for the trees”, “I want to do something for our planet”, “I was driven by my wife, and I fully support her”. Against this background, the words of a little boy sounded dramatically, which for the second time brings with the mother several packages of useful garbage: “And dad wants to throw it all out!”

Natalya Zakharenko: “For the first time I decided to collect recyclables. The family council decided to support the right initiative. In addition, it is pleasant to realize that you are among those who are trying to do something good for the planet. I hope that we will manage to organize a separate collection at home. ”

Sisters Polina and Anastasia: “We want our children to live on a clean planet! We saw the participants of the first action, and decided to prepare thoroughly for the second one: a month they were collecting plastic, paper, yogurt cups, jars of baby food ... ”

Daria Godnar: “My son (he is studying in the 1st grade of the 423rd school) and I wrote the project“ Glass and Environmental Protection ”. And there they considered the problem of garbage. Then they found out about the action. Began to collect plastic. Of course, this takes place in the kitchen, but the knowledge that we are doing the right thing gives strength to cope with irritation. ”

Mother Katya: “Once a son asked:“ Mother, where does paper and furniture come from? ”I told them that they are made of wood. And he asks: “What will happen if all the trees are cut down?” My child is 3.5 years old and he is very sorry for the trees. ”

You can not store at home - you will be containers!
Yes, many people, conveying the collected volunteers, complained that it was inconvenient to keep all this at home for a month - they say, it is necessary to install special containers in the yards, then consciousness will be awakened in people. After all, it's easy: bring empty glass containers to the container, which is next to your house ...

Irina came with her husband and sons: “We learned about the action from the Kronstadt Gazette.” A lot of glass has accumulated at home, and we didn’t know where to put these cans. After all, throw - sorry. And then they will be recycled! Very good. But it would be even better if services were equipped in our service yards.
for separate waste collection. After all, a month to keep it all at home is difficult. ”

Olga Gennadyevna: “I am glad that such actions are held in Kronstadt. Here are just from the 19th quarter, not everyone can bring their recyclables. I propose to organize another reception point. ”


On remarks, similar to the remark: “The city should do it” - the volunteers unanimously answered: “And what is a city? This is us! We are the city! ”

And yet, opponents of storing collected recycled materials in the kitchen have something to please. According to Kronstadt Messenger Roman Sablin, chairman of the Green Kotlin Ecoclub, according to the results of the two RazDelnye Dvory shares held in Kronstadt, the district administration went to meet eco-activists and supported their proposal to establish
in the city there are stationary containers for separate collection of recyclable garbage. Now is the approval of addresses. One of them will definitely be in the 19th quarter. Removal of containers will occur once a month. The future of the project depends on how and what they will be filled with. If Kronstadters will use
they will do it competently, in the future the number of such specialized sites will increase. For now, I can assure you that the Kronstadt Gazette will closely monitor the implementation of this project. Details are in the following numbers.

When the amount of garbage is reduced, problems also
However, as you know, the best way to get rid of garbage is not to start it. The participation of Kronstadt in the “Divided Collection” movement is not only bags of useful recyclable materials transferred for recycling. This is primarily a change of attitudes in the head of everyone who, after reading this material, found it in consonance with his idea of ​​the future of the city, country, planet.

What is the next step of conscious people?
The secret is simple. Soon you will play enough in “collect, divide and recycle” and begin simply and naturally not to consume. By reducing the volume of rash purchases, acquiring wisely, you can not only save, make the city cleaner and save the environment - but also save the world in the family. Then quarrels in the kitchen over where to keep yogurt cups, washed and flattened bottles and empty cans waiting for the next promotion, simply will not.

Pavel and Ekaterina: “We do not have the same scale. We just do not have so much garbage to interfere. Therefore, it is easy for us to collect and export separately once a month. ”

Masha Beschastnaya from school 422: “The problem of garbage is a global problem. And if we do not help our planet, then we will not stay at home. Nature is our mother. And you have to take care of mom. My position: you need to reduce the amount of garbage. "

Fully agree with Masha.

I remind you that the action "Divided Collection" in Kronstadt was organized by the youth association Ecoclub Green Kotlin, existing at the Kronstadt Palace of Youth. On April 4, volunteers took the recycle from Kronstadt: Roman Sablin, Mikhail Lunkov, Maria Gorshenina, Olesya Eremina, Ksenia Velesova with her daughter Arina, and the author of this material with her daughter Violetta.

Hefty Trash Bags for The Recycling Bin - Blue, 13 Gallon, 60 Count

Modern trash cans for the kitchen - hygienic and comfortable furniture

To improve the performance characteristics of custom-made kitchens, many modifications of bins and sorter have been developed and introduced into production. A rich assortment of these components of the furniture provides increased comfort of the headsets, as well as the ability to solve diverse design tasks. The company Styver-100 with the maximum benefit for customers uses a solid arsenal of technical means for collecting and storing garbage, so that our furniture always meets the highest standards of quality and ergonomics.

In addition to various models of convenient trash cans and containers, reputable European manufacturers produce innovative organizational systems for household supplies and household chemicals. These devices are designed to be integrated into the case of furniture modules, and their presence has a positive effect on the performance characteristics of the headset. It is advisable to comprehensively use both the trash container and the organizer in the same cabinet, rejecting for this purpose a module with a washing center or any other locker.

If earlier it was traditionally thought that the trash bin is a pretty bucket with a hinged lid that fits on the inside of the facade, now you can easily get lost in the models offered by furniture components manufacturers. Today, products from Halio, Kessebohmer, Vibo, Vauth-sagel and Blanco are in high demand.

Styver-100 company uses for the design and production of kitchens sliding, folding, withdrawable, removable and rotating trash cans and containers that are designed for installation in pedestals with different dimensions of the body - from narrow to wide modules. Our use of high-quality models with a well-thought-out design ensures a high degree of hygienic furniture, as well as its convenient operation.

In view of the huge range of systems for collecting and storing debris and regular updating of the model range, it is almost impossible to list all types of devices on the market, so in this article we will limit ourselves to a brief description of the most popular container modifications. The information presented to your attention will help not only to determine the appropriate system, but also allow you to get away from stereotypes of stereotypes that significantly limit the choice. In this case, the final decision on the use of a mechanism is recommended to be taken after consulting with our designer during the measurement process.

Note: Traditionally, it is believed that all types of bins were designed specifically for kitchens, but this is not true. If necessary, we will, without prejudice to aesthetic characteristics and functionality, integrate such a system into office or any other furniture, if circumstances so require.
Retractable waste collection containers

The most popular retractable garbage containers overtook traditional garbage bins with hinged lids, which are mounted on the back of the facade. This is quite an expected result, as roll-out sorter is much more convenient and has a more extensive scope. Depending on the modification and design of the case, they can be integrated into one of the thumbs of the lower base of the headset with a base from 200 to 900 millimeters. Consider in order the available models of retractable containers:
Containers for narrow pedestals

Container for narrow pedestals Retractable garbage containers for narrow pedestals are made on the basis of traditional cargo (bottle). They are suitable for installation in the modules of the lower base with a housing width of 200 to 250 millimeters and have a facade fastening system. Depending on the modification, such buckets are fixed either to the bottom or to the vertical side stand. Higher quality models are equipped with ball guides, and containers are simpler with roller extension mechanisms. Containers for premium class kitchens are additionally equipped with damping devices and closers, thanks to which noiseless sliding along the guides and automatic closing of the door leaf is achieved. Again, depending on the elitism and cost of the model of the retractable container, the material is chosen for the manufacture of the frame of this device. For high-quality systems, durable steel wire with 4-fold chrome-plated coating or stainless steel wire rod is used. The frame of cheaper sorts with roller guides are made of thin wire and have a white coating of powder paint. Baskets can have one or two levels. This indicator depends on the height of the garbage containers and the design of the system itself. Trash cans are usually rectangular in shape and are made of white, gray or black plastic. You can also find in the sale of containers with internal and external finishing of sheet stainless steel. Almost all modifications of retractable sorter have containers with hinged lids, which in turn differ in the method of opening. At the most simple and inexpensive models, the covers are lifted with the help of a conventional rope, one edge of which is tied to the cover, and the other end is “dead” attached to a vertical stand. The tension of the cord during the extension of the frame causes the lids to rise when it sags when the system is pushed in, the containers close. More elite bins are equipped with an automatic mechanism for opening / closing lids.
Retractable bollards with medium hull dimensions

Container for medium thumbs For modules of the lower base with a housing width of 300-500 millimeters, retractable bins with a lower mounting frame are mainly used. These models are suitable for integration into cabinets with hinged facades and have an automatic extension system. Mechanisms of extension of such containers are equipped with reliable ball guides and in most cases have built-in closer with damper. Only devices for economy class kitchens are equipped with inexpensive roller guides, they do not have softening devices, and most of them lack an automatic opening system. The mechanism of extension of such containers for collecting waste functions synchronously with the hinged door. It is a movable lever on hinges, one edge of which is fixed on the inside of the door leaf, and the reverse end is connected to the withdrawable frame. When opening the facade, this device pulls the frame with a bucket out of the case, and when it closes it causes the system to return to its original position. In this case, the opening / closing of the lids occurs synchronously with the advance / retract of the mobile trash can. Some modifications of such systems are additionally equipped with a special foot pedal that provides automatic opening of the facade and, accordingly, the simultaneous extension of the frame.

Such retractable buckets are suitable not only for mounting in linear pedestals with medium dimensions, but also in corner pedestals (Euro-angle) with a washing center. However, given the design and dimensions of the cabinet of such cabinets, there are restrictions on the use of systems for collecting and storing debris. Their integration is advisable only if rational use is found for the rest of the space. The fact is that the retractable container is installed opposite the facade and blocks access deeper into the roomy pedestal, which leads to the emergence of a large “dead” zone. So, it would be logical to add something in the far compartment that will not be extracted often. For example, a stationary filter for water treatment. When it needs to be accessed for maintenance and replacement of cartridges, it will be enough to remove the containers from the sliding frame, and after performing the work, return them to their original place.
Euro-Cargo Systems

The Euro-Cargo S system is a versatile, very convenient mechanism that is suitable for installation in thumbs with a width of 450 and 600 millimeters. This device consists of two plastic containers, fixed inside a metal frame made of sheet steel. This mechanism is equipped with reliable ball guides of full extension with an automatic closer. Thanks to this extension mechanism with a bearing capacity of up to 50 kg, the buckets leave the cabinet smoothly and silently. Depending on the width of the cabinet, in which it is planned to install the Euro-Cargo S system, the volume of each bucket is 19 or 30 liters. The metallic elements of this mechanism are silver, and the plastic elements are light gray. The mechanism provides for the fastening of the facade directly to the frame and the ability to adjust the door leaf in different planes, which ensures smooth gaps between adjacent cabinets. The internal mounting height for Euro-Cargo S class systems is 430 mm and the minimum depth is 405 mm. These retractable bins are great for integration into a linear cabinet with a washing center. In addition to all the above-mentioned elements, the system is equipped with a metal lid, which is permanently fixed inside the case. It not only does not close the containers, but also serves as an additional shelf inside the module for various small items. The Euro-Cargo S system is manufactured by Halio and has a traditional German quality.
Orga-Board Boxes

In addition to the Euro-Cargo system, Halio has developed a functional Orga-Board drawer that has a depth of 420 millimeters and is suitable for integration into a cabinet with a 600 mm case width. The device is equipped with a supporting platform made of durable sheet metal with a silver coating and is additionally equipped with a rubberized anti-slip mat. This mechanism is able to withstand up to 30 kg, which is an excellent characteristic for devices of this type. The height of such a box is 59 millimeters. In addition to the basic model, an improved version of the Orga-Board box is released. This modification is also intended for integration into cabinets with a base of 600 mm, but has a large height (170 mm) and is additionally equipped with two small plastic Kitty containers. The total depth of the system is 195 mm, which makes it possible to operate it in a cabinet with a sink. Compact plastic buckets have a volume of 4 liters each and are equipped with lids. The bearing capacity of the Orga-Board 3101-60 system with full extension guides allows it to withstand loads up to 30 kg.
Rotating trash system with retractable container

It is recommended to install rotating systems for garbage collection and storage in angular pedestals with a trapezoidal hull structure and embedded sink. These are convenient devices that allow you to efficiently use all the available space inside this spacious module. It is this mechanism that is able to ensure the highest possible loading of such pedestals and the highest degree of comfort. Rotating systems with retractable containers have a cylindrical shape with a radius of 700-750 mm. Depending on the modification, they are suitable for integration into cabinets (900x900 mm) with a facade width of 350-450 mm, and due to the height restriction (on average 330-350 mm) they fit perfectly in the housing under the sink bowl. Office for the collection and storage of waste from such systems can be equipped with one, two and three buckets, which are easily removed from the retractable frame. Such sorters have, as a basis, a rotating disk on which the rest of the system is fixed, assembled according to the principle of a children's designer. Similar systems with a solid molded plastic case are also found. Retractable frame with trash containers equipped with telescopic guides. For elite devices, the equipment is provided with dampers and closers to stabilize and soften the course. The side compartments of the rotating system have the shape of a segment of a circle and are separate capacious pockets. They are great for storing household chemicals and other supplies to maintain cleanliness and order in the kitchen.

Rotating sorters are not necessarily made of plastic. It can also be combined structures that are made on the base of a steel wire frame with electroplated coating. However, the principle of operation of these systems remains unchanged - the central zone is allocated under a rectangular compartment with pull-out containers, and the side sections are used for storing various kitchen utensils. By rotating around the central axis, the sorter is rotated by the desired compartment to the doorway. Everything is simple, convenient and rational.
System of the organization and sorting of garbage for drawers

Container for medium thumbsThe engineers of the German company Halio are ordinary people and use kitchen furniture in their everyday life. It has occurred to some of these guys that it is best to use the top drawer of one of the pedestals for collecting and storing debris, and this is more convenient than placing containers in the lower compartments of the lockers. He managed to convince the authorities, and the company began producing a separate series of systems for organizing and sorting garbage for drawers.

This organizer is a few containers that are built into the general framework. This design allows you to separately contain dry garbage and food waste, while leaving space for the storage of other kitchen utensils and household chemicals. Containers for garbage are equipped with hinged lids, and all other containers for more convenient operation are left open. This organizer is even suitable for storing powders and other detergents. Depending on the dimensions of the boxes into which the system is to be installed, the number of individual sections is from 2 to 8 pieces. Containers for the content of kitchen utensils are represented by two types of bowls: solid and lattice.

The organization system for collecting and sorting Halio garbage can be integrated into bollards with a base of 300; 450; 500; 600; 800 and 900 millimeters. The height of the installation is 320 mm, and the useful depth of the box must be at least 435 mm. Blum Tandembox, Hettich InnoTech and GRASS extension systems are suitable for mounting this kitchen fixture. Accordingly, all these guides can be equipped with damping devices, rear locking, as well as an automatic opening mechanism, which makes the operation of the organizer even more convenient.

All the buckets with which Halio organizers are equipped are made of practical gray plastic. They are easily removed from the drawer and simply cleaned with traditional detergents. Depending on the type of system, it is equipped with a different number of containers for 18, 12 and 4 liters, which makes it possible to conveniently sort garbage and other kitchen utensils.
Folding Bins

Depending on the model and manufacturer, folding bins are installed in the bottom base cabinets with a facade width of 350-450 mm. Such a container is usually made of plastic and has a rectangular shape, it is additionally equipped with a mounting frame and a special system that provides a folding opening of the facades. Some of these containers for garbage collection are equipped with hinged lids. More expensive and elite modifications have a stable support, and models of the middle price category are equipped with a simpler fixation system, but it rarely gives malfunctions.

In principle, this is a pretty good bucket for collecting garbage, so it is convenient to use. However, integrating such containers into cabinets with standard dimensions is not the most rational solution. Since the tank itself has a depth of 300 to 350 millimeters, it is recommended to use it in modules with narrow sidewalls. Such parameters are found in some cabinets, which are equipped with L-shaped kitchens for small apartments. When designing such typefaces, a short row of thumbs of the lower base is usually covered with a table top trimmed to 400-450 mm. Accordingly, the useful depth of the lockers under it is 300-350 mm. It is recommended to integrate a folding trash bin into one of the constituent elements of this series.
Buckets for tapping into the worktop

Bucket for tapping into the worktopRecently, the popularity of another convenient and interesting model - a bucket for garbage, built into the countertop. Such a container can be integrated into any convenient area of ​​the working surface of the headset, and most often it is embedded in the immediate vicinity of the washing center. These buckets simplify the cooking process and reduce the time it takes to clean up the kitchen. They occupy only the upper compartment of a small cabinet, reserved for the insertion of such a container, allowing the lower zone of the housing to be used for other purposes.

Mortise waste bins are suitable for integration into all types of tabletops: from natural and artificial stone, wood and postforming. They are equipped with a convenient hermetic stainless steel lid and a special sealing ring that retains odors inside the container. Some buckets for tapping into the tabletop are equipped with special windows built in the lid or garbage shredders, which makes their operation even more convenient, since in this case the bucket opens mostly only when taking out the garbage.

5 buckets are on sale; 7 and 11 liters with a round or rectangular lid shape that allows you to choose a model that meets the everyday needs of each customer. These containers go well with polished stainless steel sinks, and also look good next to artificial stone sinks. The main advantages of these models are increasing the overall level of furniture comfort and improving the aesthetic characteristics of the kitchen.
Pivoting bins

Swing-out bucketsFor those who make high demands on the level of comfort of kitchen furniture, we can recommend tilt-and-pull systems for collecting and storing debris. This mechanism provides not only an absolutely full extension of the containers from the cabinet body, but also their turn by 80 degrees. Due to this plastic containers are in the zone of maximum availability. Moreover, the angle of rotation is not a fixed value - the base with containers deviates exactly as much as is required for more convenient loading of garbage or the removal of buckets from the frame.

Swing-out system for separate storage of garbage is designed for installation in pedestals with a base of 450 mm. The device is attached by means of a mobile side frame to one of the vertical side stack of the module. The pull-out mechanism of this system is equipped with a softening damper and closer, thanks to which the facade independently occupies the initial position. Reliable frame and durable frame able to withstand a load of at least 25 kg, which is enough to fully meet the household needs of the average family.
Eco Center VAUTH-SAGEL

The eco center from the company VAUTH-SAGEL is mainly used in pedestals with a washing center. The system is suitable for integration in both linear and angular (Euro-angle) modules, and this device is suitable for facades with either side of the opening. Eco center has a carrying capacity of up to 50 kg per container and up to 5 kg on a convenient lid that has niches for household supplies. Depending on the dimensions of the hull and door leaf, as well as domestic needs, this system for collecting and storing garbage is completed with 1, 2, 3 and 4 containers, the volume of which varies from 18 to 39 liters each. The buckets are in single; two- or three-section frame made of steel wire with electroplated coating. The minimum installation depth of the eco center is 500 mm, which perfectly allows installation under the sink sink.
Buckets on the inside of the facade

Roll-out buckets with fasteners on the inside of the facade or side rack for a long time remained out of competition. However, today they are actively replacing modern functional mechanisms capable of providing a higher level of comfort. Fewer customers choose such modifications, and their principle of operation is well known to everyone: the bucket leaves the case together with the opening door, and at the same time the lid rises. Do not once again describe what everyone knows so well. It is better to spend this time on one interesting inexpensive model that is perfect for equipping economy class kitchens.

This is a compact flat container that has a truncated shape. The inner side of this model has a flat surface, and the outer, like a traditional bucket, has a cylindrical one. The lid of such a container is attached to the inside of the door leaf and has special brackets on which the bucket is put on. To remove the container from the mounting plate or put it back on, it takes a maximum of 2-3 seconds. To lift the lid, a cord tied to it is used, fixed with the other end on the side stand. The design is very compact, simple and efficient. Great for installation in a cabinet under the sink.

Conclusion

To make the kitchen more convenient, more ergonomic and more functional, it is recommended to allocate a whole cabinet for household needs, including collection and debris. In addition to the container for collecting and storing garbage, it is better to additionally equip the module with special organizers that will increase the capacity of the case and shorten the time for searching, retrieving and storing household supplies and household chemicals. We mentioned these systems at the very beginning of the article, and the following review will be devoted to them. Read our materials - it is interesting and informative for those who are going to order furniture in the foreseeable future.

Waste sorting : meaning, equipment, country experience

Sorting of garbage and waste (MSW)

To recycle waste, you need to pre-sort it. In developed countries, there is a separate collection of garbage, so its processing there is carried out qualitatively and environmentally safe. In Russia, there is not yet such a developed system; therefore, in order to recycle mixed MSW, they need to be sorted at factories.

The meaning and meaning of sorting

Sorting garbage is one of the steps carried out before the immediate processing of waste. In the process, components are selected from the collected mixed mass of MSW, i.e. share waste on various grounds into different groups. Garbage is sorted at waste sorting and recycling plants using special equipment. The value of sorting is to isolate certain types of waste from their mixture and in a convenient form to send for appropriate processing.

Often the term “waste sorting” is confused with the concept of “ separate garbage collection ”, but this is not the same thing. The second concept involves the separation of different types of utilities at the collection stage. For this purpose, containers of different colors are installed, each of which is designed for specific wastes (plastic, paper, glass, etc.).

How is trash sorted

We consider the process of sorting MSW (MSW) on the example of the recently opened Russia's largest waste sorting plant (Tyumen). The technology of this enterprise includes the following steps:

Undisposed waste is fed to the conveyor. In the first workshop, they manually separate the types of garbage that can disrupt equipment: stones, metal, ceramic and other components.
Then the garbage is divided into parts depending on the diameter.
Further waste is sorted by materials: plastic, paper, etc. In compressed bales, they are sent to recycling plants.

Kitchen waste sorting system

That's right, if separate collection of garbage begins to be made at home. For this, special devices can be used - waste sorting systems for washing. They are designs with several containers for different types of garbage.

Designed for such systems for kitchen cabinets and installed under the sink. Structures can be retractable (on rails), there are also systems that attach to the opening door of the cabinet. Also sold are those types of devices in which the collection of waste occurs through the neck in the sink. Good systems are made from high-quality polymers that prevent the smell of garbage from spreading in the apartment. Stand-in sorting structures are expensive.

Sorting garbage in Russia

Recycling and sorting of waste in our country is poorly developed. Sorting garbage, or rather, to produce its separate collection should be started next to the sources of MSW. Those. Russians themselves must separate different types of waste . To do this, you need to install special containers everywhere (for organics, plastics, paper, etc.).

In our country, for the most part, ordinary garbage cans are standing where mixed waste is dumped. In unsorted form, they can be sent to processing plants, while the processing process is more expensive (because pre-sorting is necessary), and the final product turns out to be of lower quality. For these reasons, mixed waste in Russia is most often subjected to thermal decomposition at incineration plants or dumped at landfills.

Garbage sorting abroad

Much better grading of MSW is carried out in European and other developed countries.
Germany

In Germany (as in most other European countries) the costs of waste sorting at processing plants are minimized, because the Germans themselves conscientiously abide by the rules of separate garbage collection.

All Germans have in their apartments bins and bags that contain different types of garbage. Separately collected waste Germans are placed in outdoor containers of different colors. Then, utilities also produce a separate collection of waste from containers and deliver sorted garbage to plants for the disposal of specific types of waste.

A German resident who throws garbage in the wrong place will be held accountable (usually in the form of fines). If the candy wrapper is intentionally thrown not into an urn, but conditionally next to it, then the German will pay a fine of 35 euros.

Italy

Sorting garbage in Italy should also be the people themselves (the law began to act relatively recently). In large cities, special tanks of different colors are installed for this purpose. Residents of very small settlements dispose of various types of waste on a schedule. Italians hand over dangerous and bulky garbage to specialized points.

Waste storage takes place using special packages. For example, organic components are discarded in biodegradable bags. For non-compliance with the established requirements fines are issued.
Czech

The Czech Republic also has a law (185/2001), according to which Czechs must properly dispose of waste. Sorting of garbage is carried out at home, then the differentiated utilities are sent to the tanks for separate collection.

Instead of ordinary garbage bins on the streets of the Czech Republic
Japan

The rules for garbage sorting by the Japanese are different from similar principles in European countries. But residents themselves are also sorting waste.

Usually in Japan, all garbage is divided into 4 types. Waste can be incombustible, combustible, recyclable and bulky. Different types of garbage are thrown away in various packages that differ in color and volume. Bulky junk is marked with a special sticker. Separate waste collection is regulated by persons working on the garbage truck.

Garbage is collected at a certain time by which the Japanese expose their filled trash bags. They are transparent, so employees can check how correctly the sorting is done. Garbage bags are not accepted. The offender will need to re-sort, otherwise they can write out a fine.

In developed countries, sorting waste is reduced to separate garbage collection, since the residents of these states strictly comply with all requirements and are interested in preserving their ecology. Russia, on the other hand, has yet to go through an uneasy way to achieve a well-established system of separate waste collection.
Sorting MSW as a business

The actual business idea is to open a garbage sorting plant, city authorities can help in its implementation. However, it should be borne in mind that this is a costly business associated with the execution of a number of necessary documents, including a license to sort household waste (if they will have 1-4 hazard class). A sample business plan for sorting garbage can be found on the Internet.

sorting complex project
Technical equipment

To sort the garbage, you need special equipment, which can be divided into types:

automatic or manual sorting:
stationary and mobile;
with the automobile or railway course.

Equipment can be of European and domestic production. At the same time, the waste sorting complex includes:

site for special transport;
CAT;
weight platform;
overpass for transport for unloading waste;
main production facility;
warehouses for recycled materials and areas for its removal.

waste sorting line
Sorting lines

Consider a sorting line on the example of waste sorting complex for 20 thousand tons of solid waste per year from the company Netmus. It consists of:

a chain conveyor that delivers debris from the pit to the platform;
belt sorting conveyor;
a chain conveyor for supplying sorted waste to a press;
belt reversible conveyor that removes "sorting tails";
sorting platform;
the presses reducing volumes of waste and forming briquettes from salvage;
magnetic separator;
screenings;
automated control system.

The complex can also be equipped with bag breakers, shredders, various types of separators, PET bottles perforators, packaging machines, etc. To find out how much net sorting equipment costs from Netmus, you need to fill in the commercial offer form on the official website.

The cost of lines depends on its performance, composition, etc. For example, the Chelyabinsk company ESAIDI Engineering sells the VtorTech-60 sorting line with a capacity of up to 60 thousand tons of solid waste per year for 3 million 490 thousand rubles.

An overview of the equipment included in the waste sorting complex from the Netmus company and intended for processing of 50 thousand tons of MSW annually is presented in this video:

Waste sorting is a laborious process, but it is necessary to get recycled materials and new products from it. Sort garbage more correctly at the stage of its collection. However, in our country, separate collection of garbage is associated with a number of problems, the main ones are the need for large financial investments and the education in people of a waste separation culture.

Separate garbage collection: when to start and how to organize at home

Since January 2019, a new system of dealing with
solid municipal waste (MSW). Among the important innovations - in all
infrastructure should appear in large cities for separate collection and
accumulation of municipal waste.

It will take more than one year to introduce a new system everywhere. Nevertheless, it seems that the whole country is slowly moving towards the environmentally friendly management of garbage. There is also more news in the info field. Among the latter, in February, agencies were instructed to develop a standard that would allow more waste to be recycled. The priority is also a separate collection of organic waste.

What do people think?

Public surveys show that people are aware of environmental responsibility. According to the NAFI analytical center, 85% of Russians are ready to carry out separate collection of household garbage, if the entire infrastructure is prepared for this. In order for the system to start functioning, there are few containers. The entire algorithm for the collection and disposal of waste, including the emergence of special equipment and the places themselves for processing various wastes, must change.

What is happening in Petersburg?

It was assumed that as early as 2019 in St. Petersburg a single regional operator for handling household waste would work. But at the end of 2018, the State Duma adopted a law that allows Petersburg to shift the start of the operator’s work by three years. During this time, the city needs to build the missing facilities for recycling and organize a full and ubiquitous separate collection. By the way, this postponement was given to two more cities - Moscow and Sevastopol.

What can you do now?

Mentally ready for the idea to sort the garbage? Start right now, not waiting for 2022. If there are no cherished tanks in your yard, you can find out where the nearest separate collection point is located at https://recyclemap.ru/ . There are marked all the points where they collect paper, glass, plastic, metal, clothing, hazardous waste, household appliances. If the idea of ​​sorting all the garbage still seems overwhelming, start small - collect only paper and cardboard. And in order for polyethylene and plastic to accumulate less, start using a water bottle and an eco bag.


How to organize a separate collection at home?

Next we will explain how to organize a convenient sorting of garbage at home. Even if you don’t start sorting now, save yourself some text somewhere. After 3 years is useful.

1. Organize trash cans

One bin now is not enough. At least 3 containers / baskets are required.

Container 1. For plastic bags, plastic bottles and other plastic waste. To prevent bottles from taking up space, flatten them.

Container 2. For paper in all its manifestations: newspapers, magazines, cardboard wrappers from chocolate, shoe boxes, tetrapacks from juice and dairy products. Do not forget to remove plastic caps from tetrapacks and send them to container №1.

Container 3. For food waste, organics and all that can not be recycled.

There are special built-in systems for separate collection of garbage for the kitchen. But you can also collect your budget trash organizer in IKEA. Check the price on this page , there are even ventilated containers (relevant for organic).


There are 2 more types of garbage, which most likely will accumulate less often, but it is important for it to allocate space. Speech about glass (bottles, cans) and metal waste (foil, canning and aluminum cans). Collect them separately and store them where they will not disturb you - a secluded place in the kitchen, in the pantry or even on the balcony.

2. Separately collect environmentally hazardous waste.

Batteries, rechargeable batteries, fluorescent and energy saving lamps, thermometers and other mercury-containing devices (thermometers, tonometers), aerosol cans should be taken only to special collection points. Find a container closest to you or find out the schedule of eco- vehicles : ecospb.rf

3. Do it all at once.

It is important to rinse all bottles, tetrapacks, cans and packaging from leftover food and beverages before throwing it away. If you do it right away, then you don’t have to waste time on sorting.

4. Reduce volume

To ensure that the apartment does not become a landfill for storing waste materials, minimize the amount of all waste. Tetrapaku straighten, plastic bottles and aluminum cans crushed, put the packaging of different sizes into each other on the basis of matryoshka.

5. Remember this list

What is not recyclable and can be safely thrown into a common bucket:

thermal paper (checks, film for faxes, etc.);
sleeves from under toilet paper and paper towels;
disposable paper cups;
paper egg containers;
photo paper, photos;
all types of food waste;
packaging that cannot be cleaned of food waste (for example, pizza boxes with traces of fat).

Separate waste collection: how it is done abroad

When in 2009 there was a struggle with the construction of waste incineration plants in Moscow, the supporters of the factories most often said that there was no other available way to handle wastes other than incineration. Scared Muscovites and residents of the area with growing dumps, which will inevitably capture all the free space, if the garbage is not burned. All the same, it remained unclear why this should be done right in the city, 200 meters from residential buildings. Moreover, in the world there has long been an alternative method of waste management, which is not only more environmentally friendly, but also more economical. Collecting and recycling waste, including household waste, is a great business. And it begins with a garbage can in the apartment and a tank near the house. Each country does it in its own way, even different cities in one country can place tanks of different designs. There is no need to invent anything, you just have to see how it is done in the world, and learn from those who successfully solve this problem.

Spain, Seville

Most often, separate collection of waste begins in the kitchen. I don’t bother to judge how each individual European family does it, how many buckets or bags for different trash it holds in its kitchen. But with what I personally encountered this winter in the Austrian Solden. In the small kitchen of our room, which we rented for 2 families, there were several identical, not signed buckets. On the kitchen wall there was an explanation that all the waste in the hotel is collected separately, and you should put metal, bottles and glass, plastic, paper, cardboard (paper and cardboard separately!), Food waste and all other waste into different buckets. “However, you can do nothing of this and throw it all into one bucket,” the same instructions on the wall said, “we will do it for you. But it will cost you an extra 40 euros.” But we just wanted to share our garbage ourselves, not at all from the desire to save 40 euros, but from fundamental considerations. In addition, it was very clear - to see how much and what kind of waste is generated as a result of a week-long stay of 4 people at a ski resort. It quickly became clear that most of our life was plastic waste: yogurt jars, water bottles, and packing bags.

As the bucket was filled, it should be demolished down and handed over to the hotel employee, who emptied them into the appropriate tanks. I was asked to see where our trash would be carried. In the basement, next to the ski boot dryer, there were large containers, where the contents of our buckets were consistently shaken out.

The hotel staff said that such a waste collection system has been operating in Solden for over 10 years, and all the waste is being brought to the neighboring city for recycling. On the streets of tanks for separate collection, we did not see, only barrels adapted for street urns, painted in red.
And in a restaurant at an altitude of 3500 m, we saw such a cart with 4 containers: glass and metal, plastic packaging, organic, everything else. The waiters, clearing the tables, immediately sort the waste. Then large containers, as they are filled, are sent down the cable car to the city. There is no rubbish in the mountains.

Such street bins for dog waste can be found on the streets of many European cities. There are certainly small plastic bags in the container. And in Moscow we walk with our erdel with a bag and a baby scoop. True, then you have to use ordinary litter bins, and not special ones like this one.

Leiden. A cycle path with two-level interchanges passes through the whole city. In some places there are such baskets for garbage, where on the go you can throw a bottle out of the water. Cyclists compete in accuracy, getting into the basket even at speed. It happens that they miss, but then the fallen bottles will surely be picked up by municipal employees who take out the garbage. It seems to me that this is a wonderful invention!

Spain, Seville. Paper container. Behind him stands a painted container for bottles, both glass and plastic. Their further separation is most likely at the waste sorting station.

Spain, Seville. This is an underground waste bin receiver. Garbage truck empties it with a giant vacuum cleaner.

USA. Aluminum can container mounted on a large parking lot near the highway.

Massachusetts, private home in the vicinity of Boston. The municipality distributed such containers to residents so that they put plastic, glass and paper waste into them. Once every two weeks, according to the schedule, the garbage truck travels around the house and takes the contents of the containers. Nearby in a plastic bag - waste that can not be recycled. For such waste come weekly.

USA, Florida. On the left - a container for non-recyclable waste, on the right - for aluminum, plastic, glass

This concludes the short excursion into the world of separate garbage collection. Nothing complicated at first glance. It lacks the very small - political will. The city authorities (and not only in Moscow) cannot take responsibility for themselves and say: this is the right, civilized way, and we will go this way. Why in San Francisco about 80% of municipal waste is reused, and in Moscow almost everything is taken to landfills, and only a small amount is recycled? It seems to me that there is a fairly simple answer to this question: recycling is good business, but it must be managed to be organized. The city authorities do not know how to do this and do not want to do anything, but for some reason they don’t give waste collection and recycling to private business (and in the whole world it is private business that always operates more efficiently than state companies and various "unitary enterprises"). Otherwise, why not show this political will and say: do, organize, export, sort, and we will not interfere, we will help with campaigning among the population, with advertising. Even the advertising business is already placing at its expense image-based social advertising. But for the time being she is wasting. Really in Moscow, no one will throw up the bank to the "right" tank?

PS Greenpeace Russia initiated the collection of signatures of citizens under the appeal to the mayors and governors of all regions of Russia, to introduce a separate collection of waste and turn them into secondary raw materials. This will reduce the amount of waste transported to landfills.

Trash bin for the kitchen - a new kind of familiar things

There is a national sign that if the trash bin cannot be brought out in the evening, then in the morning it will be unpleasant to smell. And with a guarantee. Issues of removal (removal) and disposal of garbage are not just relevant, but burning, especially in cities and metropolitan areas.

But as they say from the global to the particular, so we will not think about the economic aspects of the problem, but come down from heaven and highlight these issues in the ordinary living conditions for a particular domestic family.

Royal, however.
Where to throw, where to make

And whether to do it.

These questions, simple at first glance, gave rise to a whole series of inventions that are used with or without benefit in our homes. However, before the ordering of information, I want to determine the general directions that will be covered in today's material.

Namely:

Trash bin in the kitchen;
Garbage systems for the kitchen;
Garbage chute in the kitchen and in the house.

Well, that’s the great “trash path”, and if you add more garbage trucks with platforms and factories for recycling and waste, you get a whole production cycle. But that's another story.

But that's better.
Bucket evolution, semi-scientific treatise

Since time immemorial, from about childhood, when a person begins to remember himself, he is surrounded by some things that very rarely change in homes. Such things include bins.

The kitchen trash bucket has only one purpose and a practically unlimited service life, so the reasons for its replacement may not appear often, unless the child decides to check the strength of the plastic with a hammer, or the design is already pretty good. So it costs in the kitchen, complementing the interior design of the kitchen , and only the requirements for it are changing.

So, a modern bucket should have:

Enough roomy bowl or container . Everything is simple here. It is rare when in modern families garbage is taken out daily, and with timely sorting and possible disposal of household waste, this ritual can take place once a week.
Cover The lid is obligatory in cases when you store organic waste in a garbage container, as well as container after semi-finished products or bags after meat, fish, etc. products. Organics after a certain time undergoes, to put it mildly, a decay process, which is accompanied by appropriate chemical processes with the formation of a very unpleasant and characteristic odor. Therefore, it is desirable that the lid has a sufficiently tight connection with the bucket itself. And also this detail bears also esthetic loading.

The bucket is ordinary, with a lid.
Garbage bags . A relatively recent invention that quickly came into our life and stuck there, it seems, for a long time. The one who had the “happiness” to wash the bucket after staying in it for a long time will remember its aroma for a long time, and the organic and inorganic drips on the bucket will also emphasize the whole “pleasantness” of the procedure. It was to prevent such dubious pleasure that these bags were invented.

Note!
The garbage bag should ideally cover the entire surface of the bucket, and its edge wrap the top of the bucket 5 cm or more.
This is how it is possible to prevent organic matter or inorganic components from entering between the bag and the wall of the bucket.

Also buckets can be:

Ordinary , which can be called - trash can for the kitchen. In this case, this is a regular bucket with a lid, which is very conveniently placed under or under the sink;

Normal bucket.

Built-in kitchen garbage can. Variations are possible here: the built-in bucket can be rigidly attached to the inside of one of the fronts of the cabinet under the kitchen sink, or it can be pulled out on special fastenings - a pull-out bucket . Moving on the topic, I would like to note that the built-in trash cans for the kitchen in modern kitchen sets of leading European and global manufacturers are replaced by trash containers for the kitchen, which not only fit optimally into the set, but also allow for sorting garbage.

Embedded analog.
Sort, why and how

At least such sorting will already be useful.

The very idea of ​​sorting garbage came about a long time ago. Recalling the recent past of Soviet children, I would like to remind you of scrap metal and waste paper, which were an integral part of school life. This is where the primary sorting of useless metal and paper took place.

In private yards, food was left to poultry and cattle, thus solving food waste disposal issues. But what about the plastic you ask? We will disappoint you, at that time there was no plastic in such quantity, and plastic bags were thrown away only because of complete unsuitability.

And today, many types of waste are subject to sorting:

Named metal and paper, you can also take in the relevant paragraphs, and for the money . Not God knows what, but the economy;
Glassware . To hand over glass bottles is not considered shameful in well-fed Europe, moreover, there is a special badge on the bottles, which informs the buyer that the cost of packaging is packed in the purchase price and is refunded upon return;
Organic waste . In some houses there are special containers for this type of waste. More enterprising, using effective microorganisms, ferment organic waste and prepare from them special supplements and fertilizers for indoor plants, as well as for their gardens, the cherished six hundred square meters;
Plastic . Special mesh tanks are also often placed under plastic. As you know, PET packaging is perfectly recyclable. But in nature it decomposes very long;
Now it has become fashionable to install separate containers for used batteries and rechargeable batteries . Well, environmentalists are right, the fact is that the chemicals contained in batteries, with decay, almost destroy nature.

In fact, the sorting systems begin with the usual family kitchen, and the kitchen waste sorting system begins with containers as in the photo.

Three containers - three types of garbage.
From bucket to container

The blessing of civilization in action.

The bucket gradually gives way to containers. Manufacturers do not stint on ideas in such a matter as garbage collection. The trash bin in the kitchen has several advantages over a bucket.

Yes, judge for yourself:

The container is inscribed clearly in the dimensions of the cabinet under the sink, and modern developments allow on the internal parts of the kitchen fronts to place additional shelves for household equipment;
The container can have several compartments, which allows for the initial sorting of garbage in the kitchen;
The entire trash system for the kitchen can be easily removed, cleaned and installed in its fixed location.

Of course, the price of such a civilized approach to sorting household waste will be slightly higher than the price of ordinary buckets, but aesthetics require sacrifice. The only ones who may disagree with me are craftsmen, who with their own hands from multi-layer plywood will make products no worse than overseas. Yes, and they do not need any instruction.
Waste is left here
Вот такая наша действительность.

This is our reality.

The final touch of today's picture will be the garbage chutes. Not very long ago, living in a house with a garbage chute was considered, if not prestigious, then very convenient. Yes indeed, there is one advantage, but which one - threw away rubbish without leaving the kitchen or the entrance.

Yes, and the bin already has a purely symbolic character. It really cost extra surcharge, as when buying an apartment, and when paying utilities. But rose-colored glasses fall in the very first summer, when the stench from the garbage chute is terrible, and the number of insects requires an intensified intervention not only of all interested services, but also of the residents of the house.

Here you will become reluctant to philosopher, and think about the question that it is better to take out the garbage on the street in containers, or enjoy the dubious benefits of civilization. Although for some reason, these problems arise only among our residents.
Finally

If in the near future systems for shredding and briquetting kitchen and household waste appear in kitchen sets, this will most likely not surprise anyone. In the meantime, for now, watch the video and observe the evolution process from the bucket to the container system.

According to the rules Технология захоронения ТБОMSW disposal technology , garbage should be tamped on specially equipped sites with bulldozers. Each layer is two meters thick and needs to be poured with primer, and in summer it should be moistened with water so that there are no fires.

In fact, it often happens otherwise. Most Russian landfills dispose of all waste indiscriminately (including batteries , mercury lamps, combustible building materials, and so on). Garbage is not tamped as needed and not poured insulating layers. This leads to environmental disasters.

The poisonous landfill gas is formed, which can seriously harm the health of people living near the landfill.

There are fires at landfills, including at great depths. They can not be put out for years. A toxic liquid, the filtrate, seeps from the landfill into groundwater, rivers and lakes.
And what about the rest of the waste?

Approximately 2% of garbage in Russia is burned, and 4% of waste is recycled. Что делать с мусором в РоссииWhat to do with garbage in Russia . Recycling falls on the sorting line, where from it choose what can be used again. These are different types of plastic, paper, glass, metal.

How is garbage disposed of in other countries?

Abroad, organic waste is composted (fertilizer), converted into biogas, which can be used to produce electricity, heat, and also as a fuel for cars.

In some European countries, up to 50% of waste is burned - this is carefully sorted garbage that cannot be recycled.

But in early 2017, the Council of Europe recommended Европейская комиссия рекомендует воздержаться от строительства мусоросжигательных заводовEuropean Commission recommends to refrain from building waste incinerators countries to refrain from building new waste incinerators and develop the processing industry.

There are examples of effective reduction in the formation of garbage in the world. For example, in the Japanese city of Kamikattsu, 80% of household waste is recycled. Residents divide them into 34 species. The local authorities have set a goal to reduce the amount of disposed waste to zero by 2020.

This is how residents of the sleeping area of ​​Tokyo collect waste.

In 76 countries of the world, the use of disposable plastic packaging, which amounts to 70% of the total waste, is legally restricted.
Why are we different?

Abroad, rely on separate garbage collection. In Russia, for the sorting of mixed waste in enterprises. The difference is significant.

Sorting mixed waste according to its efficiency is inferior to their separation before entering the waste bin. A large amount of potential recyclables simply becomes unsuitable or unprofitable for recycling. This leads to the fact that the "tails" sent for incineration or burial increase. Also, industrial sorting of mixed waste eliminates the participation of people in solving the problem. Therefore, they, in fact, do not think about how to reduce their education.
Maria Malorossiyanova, ECA Movement Project Coordinator

This is a global problem: in Russia, the processing industry is not supported, the infrastructure for separate waste collection is not created. The priority today is given to burning. So, in the Moscow region approved Строительство мусоросжигательных заводов в Подмосковье начнется в ближайшее времяConstruction of incinerators in the Moscow region will begin soon construction of four powerful incineration plants. But this is the most expensive, inefficient and environmentally unsafe way to handle waste.

This confirms the example of Sweden. It built several powerful incinerators. This hinders the development of the processing industry. Swedes are forced to buy garbage in other countries, enduring environmental risks, as incinerators produce large amounts of carbon dioxide.
What to do?

There are technologies in Russia that allow us not to bury or incinerate, but to recycle glass, metal, plastic, paper, rubber, textiles, which constitute a significant part of the waste. Only in the Moscow region there are 432 processing plants. But their capacities are underutilized on average by 30–40%.

Processing industries have low profitability due to the quality of recycled materials. For example, PET bottles arriving from landfills are highly contaminated, they need expensive cleaning. Therefore, it is important to correctly organize the separate collection of garbage. It is more profitable to process recycled resources collected by the residents and stored in containers for separate collection.
How can I start a separate collection of garbage?
1. Get some containers at home

Collect wet food waste separately. They accumulate the fastest, so you will throw them more often. Rinse all plastic containers - bottles , jars of yogurt and so on - and rinse them in a separate bag. So it will be easier to recycle.
Romualdo Yanushkevicius, Director for Development of the Center for Ecological Technologies

For paper - newspapers, magazines, advertising mailings, written sheets - you can have a separate box. Once a month you can pack it and put it in a trash container or take it to a collection point.

Also collect aluminum cans and glass containers separately. These simple actions will help to recycle more waste than if you put everything in one package.
2. Install containers for separate collection of garbage in your yard

Convene a general meeting of the tenants of the house, at which you need to make a decision on the introduction of separate waste collection in the local area. Give arguments: separate garbage collection is beneficial, as in a regular container for mixed garbage a lot of bulk waste that weigh little (for example, paper and plastic). If you recycle it in a separate tank, you can save: you will need much less containers.
Contact this management company and ask them to install containers for separate collection.
Suggest a company that takes garbage out of your yard to organize separate waste collection, or sign a contract with another such company.

3. Hand over the waste collected separately.

The site Greenpeace has a map where you can find the nearest point of delivery of waste: paper, glass, plastic, batteries, tetrapacks, light bulbs, household appliances, and so on. However, while such items are not in all cities.
Will this help improve the situation?

Yes. From waste that is destroyed, you can make new things. For example, 400 aluminum cans are a new children's bicycle, 25 plastic bottles — a fleece jacket, a kilogram of newspapers — 10 rolls of toilet paper.

Experts have calculated What to do with garbage in Russia that recycling will allow by 2030 to reduce the amount of disposed trash in our country by 75-80%. This means that the number of landfills will decrease. The new sphere will give new jobs, and the incineration plants that poison the atmosphere will build less.
