4. Waste Treatment Industry
in figures

St.Petersburg generates about 10 million m3
of MSW annually

Waste treatment plants treat about 15% of
total amount of waste

The rest 85% are disposed at the landfills

Forecast for 2020 is more than 12 million m3
(2 million tons) of MSW to be generated

5. Existing Infrastructure of the Waste
Treatment Industry
2 plants
«Yanino» and «Volkhonka»

Using technology: mechanical-biological treatment
Useful materials such as paper, plastic and metals are
recovered first through the mechanical separation stage.
The rest organic material goes through the composting
stage. The end product is CLO (Compost-like output).
2 landfill sites
«Novosyolki»

Capacity: 34 million tons (residual capacity in 2012 3,7 million tons)
«Novy Svet»
Capacity: 18 million tons (residual capacity in 2012 7 million tons)
