Title	Biodegradable Waste In The Current Economic Context Of Romania - Challenges And Solutions
Year	2018
Published
Abstract	Considering that, in the municipal waste composition, about 50% of the total is biodegradable waste and because there are also important quantities of other categories of organic waste such as: green waste, sludge from waste water treatment plants, animal waste, agricultural waste, etc., the problem of biodegradable waste in the current economic context of Romania is complex and vast. Agricultural land is continuously degrading, 95% of municipal waste goes directly to the landfill, a large number of existing composting facilities are not in use, lack of legislation (Romania is one of the only three countries in Europe that do not have composting legislation), and these are just a few examples of the challenges our country is facing today. To meet these challenges, our country needs to take urgent measures to address the issue of biodegradable waste. This article aims to highlight both the problems and the solutions that can solve these problems in correlation with the best available techniques as well as with the tendencies and the legislation at European level All these, adapted to the Romanian specifics.
