Abstract
Waste management refers to all operations implemented for the proper management of solid waste: methods of collecting, recycling and recovery, processing, treatment, storage, transportation, analysis and monitoring. The main topics in this paper are the following: institutional framework, national legislative and regulatory frameworks of waste management; Integrated management of municipal waste; Hazardous waste management; Secondary wine product management; Management of plastic waste; Infectious medical waste management. Thus, ASM in collaboration with a private company implemented two technologies for complex treatment of solid waste. The following goals were currently reached in RM: a sector of complex full processing of plastic waste was created at industrial scale, a pilot line was put into operation, for sorting, processing and obtaining of new products from secondary polymer raw materials and an authorized point was created for managing infectious waste resulting from medical activities in medical institutions and hospitals, by collecting, sorting, packing, transporting and neutralizing these wastes to prevent environmental contamination. The neutralization of infectious medical waste is performed by vacuum sterilization method using the STERISHRED 250, which is the most modern method of solving local problems of infectious medical waste processing without incineration.
