Title ANALYSIS OF THE NEW WASTE LAW, 7/2022, APRIL 8th AND ITS IMPLICATIONS IN THE WASTE MANAGEMENT CORESPONSIBILITY IN WASTE RECOVERY"
Year 2022
Published
Abstract The new Law 7/2022, on Waste and Contaminated Soils, introduces important changes in terms of textile waste, a sector that has traditionally received less attention in terms of the volume and management of waste produced. The textile industry is, in fact, the fourth most polluting in terms of waste volume and, in addition, it has been increased by the social practice of fast fashion employment. Due to the aforementioned, the European Directive ((EU) 2018/851) which modifies Directive 2008/98/EC on waste is of particular importance. This new Directive obliges the Member States to the selective collection of textile waste before January 1st, 2025, and to establish objectives related to the preparation for reuse and recycling of this waste. This will have an impact on the entire textile value chain as it will be necessary for companies to start designing and preparing their products to contain recycled material and to allow its recycling. The new tendencies in the management of textile disposables promote an increase in public awareness about consumption practices as well as the co-responsibility of producers and users. The management of textile waste, whose main destination is the social economy, will have to promote technologies for the recovery of surpluses to reintroduce these materials into the consumption process, thus favoring the circular economy and sustainability.
