As discussed inside Global WtERT Council we are now in the process of taking the small step towards the new website wasteculture.com. I am convinced that this also will help the common cause to foster WtE techniques who need more acceptance in society.

Abstracts From the BKAWE'25” are from Volume 2 of the series ‘Waste Management and Energy’ from TK Verlag

The IPA model promotes a partnership approach where all decisions are made by consensus.

It makes abundant sense to encourage or even mandate the use of tableware.

The aim is to ensure that international shipments of waste don’t pose a threat to human health and the environment, and to promote the use of waste as a resource in a circular economy.

In July 2021 the new “Transfer Station and Sorting Plant Azcapotzalco” was inaugurated in Mexico City, which annually saves around $88,976,000 MXN (3,742,375 Euros) through the sale of recyclables, avoidance of transport, and reduction of final disposal.

Hungarian municipal solid wastes (MSW) management has developed tremendously over the past 15 years. More than 3,000 landfills and dumps had been closed, just to mention one improvement. However, still, lots of work is necessary to accomplish the EU’s ambitious aim of decreasing landfilling and increasing recycling and composting.

In order to remain competitive for achieving a circular economy we need to consider even more alternative pathways to close the loop for material and waste streams down to a nutritional level. A sustainable and value adding strategy is the intensified rearing and use of insects, in particular the use of edible species as human food and animal feed.

The purpose of this study (technical assessment) is to understand the effect of the Syrian crisis on the solid waste management (SWM) sector in Non-State Armed Group (NSAG) controlled areas and define the worst communities located in Jisr-Ash-Shugur-district (JASD)/Idleb governorate of Syria.

WtERT wants to show solidarity with the Fridays for Future movement, but also with statements from Scientists for Future and engage in a global crowd sourcing campaign framing a response of the municipal solid waste (MSW) community to Climate Change.

As a completion of the intensive cooperation of the export initiative Environmental Technologies "Sustainable Waste and Recycling Management in Croatia", a high-ranking 30-member delegation from Croatia visited Bavaria.

The purpose of this report is to provide a strong and comprehensive knowledge base on waste management in Kosovo, with focus on municipal waste. The key data provided per municipality and region, provide a clear understanding of the current situation, the trends and their implications, and future plans.

This book analyze the new gasification technologies developing worldwide for converting waste solids to energy and synthesis gas and chemical products. It examines the critical development needs and real life challenges for the deployment of waste to energy technologies and provides information on the economics and sustainability of these technologies, as well as their future perspective.

In its current phase (04/2014 - 12/2016), the Sustainable Municipal Services (SMS) program of the German Development Cooperation (Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit – GIZ) in Kosovo has the potential to provide in the medium term basic public services in the waste management sector for 70% of the population. Such an achievement would be to a large extent dependent on the success and development of an incentive-based competition in 17 selected municipalities (out of a total of 38 ), which was set up by the MESP in cooperation with the German Development Bank (Kreditanstalt für Wiederaufbau – KfW). Responsible municipal bodies get access to investments provided that they implement reforms for performance development and make improvements in selected performance indicators. The latter aims at a financially sustainable expansion of services.

The paper addresses the gap between the North and South through a critical analysis of the current global debate on cities, MSWM, and climate change.
