FEDERAL CENTER FOR WASTE MANAGEMENT BY THE MINISTRY FOR REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT PARTNER: IV European- Russian scientific-practical conference EURORUSS: PARTNERSHIP, EXPERIENCE, INNOVATIONS IN MANAGING THE INDUSTRIAL AND DOMESTIC WASTES. SPONSORS Open for offers TOPIC ACTUALITY The volumes of wastes in Russia grow. In year 2005 three billion tons of wastes including the communal wastes were produced. In the last yeas this figure has increased up to billion tons of wastes annually. Almost 1 million tons out this amount are hazardous wastes like boron, molybdenum and arsenic, 239 thousand tons are extremely hazardous wastes like lead oxide, quicksilver and radioactive isotopes. Almost 80% of these hazardous wastes are produced by the extraction industries like metallurgy, oil and coal production; however the chemical industry and metallurgy damage the environment and human health the most. There are approximately 90 billion tons of wastes accumulated to the present day in Russia. Almost 10 millions of people in Russia live in the cities where the levels of hazardous emissions drastically exceed the permitted levels. The sewage waters from households and industry pollute the surface waters and nowadays approximately 22-30% of the surface and ground waters do not match the environmental norms. They are in an extreme critical situation. The modern world tendencies show that in middle and short term the usage of wastes for the production of the valuable secondary resources and solid recovered fuel will increase with the goal to save the primary resources and to decrease the CO2 emissions. This process will go along with the integration of the innovative technologies in the area of sorting of wastes as well as for the material and thermal utilization of the communal wastes. On the session of the State Council on the 9th June 2011 the President of the Russian Federation set for the federal and regional governments the task to develop the modern concept for sustainable, environmental friendly and effective system for utilization of communal and industrial wastes, which should determine the product responsibility of producers (importers) for the utilization of their products and guarantee the environmental safety of the large industrial objects as well as to protect the surface and ground waters against the pollution. Therefore one can state that the problem with the wastes disposal in the Russian Federation has a nationwide scope and thus the authorities have to cooperate with each other and companies representatives in order to develop measures and ways to solve the waste problems. TOPICS OF THE CONFERENCE: The legal regulations and methods of the organization of the wastes disposal system in Germany from the communal up to the federal level; German experiences for Russia; Tendencies to adjust the environmental norms and regulations of Russia to the European standards; The Experiences of Germany in the area of cooperation of the municipal administrations to provide the environmental protection (cleaning); Financial and legal mechanisms for the integration of the innovative technologies in the regions of the Russian Federation on the basis of PPP-projects and participation of the foreign investors by the project financing; Efficient and innovative technologies and machines for collection, transport, recycling, procession and storage of communal and industrial wastes; Industrial wastes from the chemical industry, metallurgy, coal production as well as the timber processing industries and their usage as the secondary resources; Technologies and machines for the production of the valuable materials and resources from scrap glass, Tetra packs, timber wastes, construction wastes, scrap tires and electronic scrap; Waste-to-Energy technologies, technologies to the extraction of the solid recovered fuel from domestic and industrial wastes; Technologies for the treatment of domestic and industrial waste waters; Treatment of the oil contaminated waters and soils, recovery and utilization of the oil contaminated sludge.

3 COMMON INFORMATION INFORMATION NOTICE According to the information of the consumer advice centre today in the Russian Federation operate 5 waste incineration plants and 5 wastes processing plants, 39 facilities for waste sorting and waste dumps for domestic wastes. However despite the application of the innovative European technologies on the wastes processing plants in Russia they are not able to operate effectively because of the huge volumes of the not presorted wastes. Currently no technology exist which enables to extract more than 12% of valuable secondary sources for recycling from the mixed not presorted wastes. According to the expert estimations the Russian economy bears the losses of 3 billions of US dollar annually because of the poorly organized system of the waste management. Thereby the opportunities of the thermal using of the 90 billion of the accumulated wastes for the energy generation, as well as serious environmental problems and health risks, misuse of territories are not taken into account. The essential measures for the improvement of the legal norms and regulations in the waste disposal system of Russia lie in the redistribution of authorities between the federal and regional administrations, as well as legal definition of the duties and responsibilities of households, trade and production enterprises for the utilization of wastes which arise through their diverse activities. Moreover it is planned to introduce new regulation concerning the recycling of packages and refund bottles, as well as the economic mechanisms stimulating the usage of secondary sources extracted from the wastes in order to reduce the waste volumes on the waste dumps. Thereby it is important to state that the Waste Dump Regulation which was introduced in Germany in 2005 and forbade the dumping of the unprocessed industrial and domestic wastes on the waste dumps, was an important factor that lead to the establishment of the effective, sustainable and environmental friendly system of waste management in Germany and helped to reduce the emissions of hazardous gases in the atmosphere up to 24%. If we take into account the fact, that a lot of industrial wastes in their chemical and physical properties are very similar to the natural raw materials and in many cases even have advantages (for example because of thermal pre-treatment, high dispercity) in comparison with the natural resources, we can state that the usage of the industrial wastes in the construction can lead to the reduction of the consumption of raw materials. In some cases the waste produced by the mining industries can fully cover the demand of the construction sector in raw materials! Slag and wastes produced by the coal industry are used in the construction sector much often. The other valuable secondary sources are waste produced by the metallurgy and other extraction industries. There are a lot of examples for usage of different wastes from the mining industries as binding and filler materials for glass and ceramics production. The chemical industry produce a lot of wastes which as well can be used in the construction sector for example slag containing phosphor and phosphor gypsum. The needs of the construction industry in gypsum can be completely covered by the wastes containing phosphor from the chemical industry namely phosphor production. Moreover a lot of timber wastes and other renewable materials are used intensively in the construction branch. Hereby saw dust, chips, tree barks, knots, etc are used. The construction industry produces itself a lot of wastes which can be further recycled. A lot of technologies were developed to produce secondary raw materials for the construction industry from the industrial wastes. The main sources of the water pollution are the contaminated domestic and industrial sewage waters, mainly industrial sewage waters polluted by the chemical industry, metallurgy, oil and coal mining industries, agriculture, transport companies etc. The contaminated sewage waters pollute the natural surface and ground waters and sometimes even change the natural features of water (chemical composition, color density, odour, etc.), make it completely ineligible for living and consumption. For example the water in the river North Dvina contains high concentrations of zinc due to the industrial wastes produced in the city Kotlas. In the river Cherepovets by the town Cherepovets the permitted norms for nitrogen are exceeded enormously. In the river Kama near Solikamsk the allowed concentrations for manganese and iron are 15 and 7 times exceeded respectively. Oil and oil-products pollute the surface waters and World Ocean enormously nowadays. Only 12 gram of oil is sufficient to contaminate one ton of water. The Siberian Rivers are the most polluted with oil. The river Ob brings annually almost 200 ton of oil in Arctic. The oil contaminations pollute not only the surface but also the ground waters and thus are the serious danger for the environment. However the state regulation of the system of sewage waters which was developed and introduced in different European countries in the last decades has supported the integration of modern innovative technologies of decontamination of sewage waters based on the chemical and biochemical processes.

The development of the economic, industrial, as well as scientific and technical conditions has the essential significance for the economy and international integration of each country which pursuits the goals of sustainable development and prosperity of population. In this sense our conference is an extraordinary important platform for the exchange of experience and knowledge between the Russian and German experts, representatives of business, public and private environmental organizations which specialize on the recycling of industrial and domestic wastes, secondary usage of the valuable raw materials extracted from wastes and introduction of the environmental friendly technologies. S.Y, Osadchy The Deputy Chairman of the State Duma Committee for Natural Resources, Environment and Ecology of the Russian Federation The international conference EURORUSS: partnership, experience, innovations in the area of communal and industrial waste management. is a very significant event, which provides the opportunity to discuss the topical problems of environmental legislation, issues of the cooperation of economy, authorities and environmental organizations and to make the objective estimation of the current situation. The successful solution of the environmental problems is possible only in case of cooperation of the government, economy and society. The elimination of the environmental problems is not possible without the competent and constructive participation of the public organizations and associations, mass media with the intellectual and practical potential, moreover involvement of population, governmental authorities and economic representatives have to be used. Germany possesses essential experiences in the environmental sector and thus our country has much interest in such events. Alexey Cherkashin The chairman of the EuroRuss e.v. The member of the expert group of the Supreme Ecological Council by the State Duma Committee for natural resources, environment and ecology The topics which will be discussed in line with the 4th Russian-European conference EURORUSS: Partnership, Experience, Innovations in managing the industrial and domestic wastes have an essential importance for the present Russia and Russian enterprises. The direction, environmental policy and legislation which have been resolved by the President and Prime-Minister of the Russian Federation have started to be implemented in form of new norms and regulations. In this connection we are anticipating the large interest towards the conference from the side of legislative and executive authorities as well as from the side of scientific and economic circles. I am sure that the European experiences will be helpful to develop the effective normative and legal ground in the area of waste management which will help to attract the foreign investors and to create an effective and sustainable system of wastes disposal. Katrin Lompscher Senator of Berlin for health, environment and consumer protection The main topic of this scientific-practical conference is the economy of wastes disposal. In Germany in the last years an essential ecological change in the area of wastes disposal has happened because the vision of the importance of wastes has drastically changed. So the wastes today are no longer annoying rests which are normally stored on the agricultural areas or somewhere else but valuable resources which can be processed, recycled and used as secondary energy sources or as valuable raw materials. Germany takes nowadays the leading place in the development of the environmental friendly technologies and the recycling quotes worldwide. Germany possesses in this area well-founded knowhow and Berlin as the main city of Germany with its international flair offers the best conditions for the seat of the European-Russian Center for Innovations, Ecology and Economic Development EuroRuss e.v. Doris Barnett The Deputy of the Bundestag, The member of the Committee for economy and development, the member of the parliamentary group of German Bundestag in the European Union The topics which will be discussed in line with the 4th Russian-European conference EURORUSS:Partnership, Experience, Innovations in managing the industrial and domestic wastes have an essential importance for the present Russia and Russian enterprises. The direction, environmental policy and legislation which have been resolved by the President and Prime-Minister of the Russian Federation have started to be implemented in form of new norms and regulations. In this connection we are anticipating the large interest towards the conference from the side of legislative and executive authorities as well as from the side of scientific and economic circles. I am sure that the European experiences will be helpful to develop the effective normative and legal ground in the area of waste management which will help to attract the foreign investors and to create an effective and sustainable system of wastes disposal. Emil Markwart Expert of the Russian-German consulting project of the Ministry of Finance of FRG and State Duma Committee for property rights of the RussianFederation The inter-regional cooperation is especially effective for the solution of the regional problems. However at the initial stage it requires much effort from the side of regional authorities and administrations, much attention towards the potential legal traps, willingness and readiness to make compromises. In spite of this as a result, final political effects (like keeping of autonomy, improvement of image for voters and state), economic effects (opportunities for new market areas, reduction of costs, economy of scale, etc.) and social effects (sustainability of services and their qualities, customer binding) will compensate the initial expenditures for its organization in case of the correctly organized inter-regional cooperation. The similar model will be introduced on the international scientific practical conference which will be held in line with the business mission EuroRuss.
