In households, we <em>dispose of<\/em> it by putting it in trash bins, we take it out of our house or apartment and put it in a designated bin, container, or skip. But which bin? The utility company in charge of waste collection and disposal collects our waste, but what happens to it next?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Waste is certainly taken out of the human environment, but if it is only <em>dumped<\/em> on a large pile in a landfill, it poses a problem and a danger, and, at the very least, it ruins the space in which it is placed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it is necessary to talk about the <em>correct waste disposal<\/em> or the <em>proper waste disposal<\/em>. Only in this context does waste disposal become part of a larger whole &#8211; part of waste management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In households, we can <em>dispose of waste in the correct way<\/em> by sorting it and then taking it to the bins designated for separate waste collection. This ensures the possibility of waste recycling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Utility Company \u010cisto\u0107a has installed a large number of bins for separate waste collection and it transports the collected waste to companies authorized for waste recycling. The remaining waste is not disposed of in a landfill pile, but is taken by the UC \u010cisto\u0107a to the County Waste Management Centre Mari\u0161\u0107ina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the closure of the Vi\u0161evac landfill and its remediation, and the opening of the County Waste Management Centre, Rijeka and Primorje &#8211; Gorski Kotar County have taken the first important steps in the proper disposal of waste. The County Waste Management Center Mari\u0161\u0107ina provides:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>reception of sorted and unsorted waste<\/li><li>mechanical-biological treatment of waste<\/li><li>disposal of residual waste with as little organic matter as possible<\/li><li>reduction of the amount of waste to less than 35% of the input mass<\/li><li>treatment of liquid and gaseous residues in appropriate installations<\/li><li>treatment of non-hazardous industrial waste<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Proper waste disposal includes the establishment of waste management centres, remediation of landfills and management of closed landfills<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":5639,"menu_order":7,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-5667","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5667","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5667"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5667\/revisions"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/5639"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cistocarijeka.hr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5667"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
