Currently, in the territory of the Russian Federation in waste dumps and stockpiles are accumulated more than 94 billion tons of solid waste
Over the past 5 years the total amount of waste produced in Russia increased in 1.5 times
Total volume of waste – 5,96 billion tonn, year 2015

MSW generation, mln tonn
MSW utilization %
About 70 million tons of MSW (350 million m3) are generated from activity of the population annually.

5. Level of collection secondary raw materials in Russia5
A low level of main types of waste utilization in Russia
1) Industrial waste of mining
2) Some types of waste of polymeric materials:
polyethylene of the high and low density, polypropylene.
3) Waste of automobile and construction glass triplex
4) Fulfilled batteries and accumulators
5) Organic waste of animal husbandry (manure, dung)
6) Textile waste
7) Medical waste

6. General situation in waste management
in Russia 6
Less than 400 enterprises for sorting and recycling of MSW
About 4500 landfills for burial of MSW
ECOLOGICAL HARM of the previous period
About 15 thousand authorized dumps of MSW
About 17 thousand unauthorized dumps of MSW
About 13 thousand places of small unauthorized placement of MSW

7. Most widely used ways of storing and processing of waste
in Russia 7 1.
Pre-sorting 2.
Sanitary dirt fill 3.
Incine-ration
The main technologies which are needed in the market of recycling in Russia
1) Technology of receiving wood and polymeric composites from wood waste, products from mix of waste of woodworking production (sawdust) with plastic granules (for example, production of a terrace board).
2) Technology of processing of the mixed plastic waste (including sorting, grinding, washing, drying and homogenization).
3) The equipment for production of finished goods from waste of a rubber crumb.
4) Installation on automatic sorting of solid household waste, without preliminary selective collecting by the population.
5) The equipment for utilization of medical waste in plasma systems at which the electric current ionizing inert gas (for example, argon), and forming an electric arch with a temperature about 6000C is used.
It should be noted the smallest distribution of installations on processing of resistant organic pollutants and medical waste.
Among technologies of neutralization of dangerous waste the greatest distribution has thermal neutralization, including, in furnaces of the industrial enterprises, and also mobile installations. Sulfuric acid, as a rule is neutralized by neutralization.
There are 30 objects of burial of the most hazardous waste (I-II classes of danger). Thus similar objects are located in the Northwest Federal district, North Caucasus federal district and the Crimean Federal district.
The largest objects of disposal of hazardous waste:
- a pond store of JSC Kaustik (Volgograd region), capacity – 10,2 million cubic meters
- the range of industrial wastes of "Starkovo" (Kursk region), capacity – 2 million t
- the range of burial of industrial wastes "Tsvetayevsky" (JSC Bashkir Soda Company, the Republic of Bashkortostan), capacity – 1 million t
- the range of industrial and household wastes of JSC ANHK (Irkutsk region), capacity – 460 thousand tons
- and also 4 delivery wells in the Sakhalin region, with a total volume of 4,4 million cubic meters, used for burial of boring slime.
There are about 650 objects for processing of dangerous waste.
About 450 objects (70%) is the share of installations on neutralization of sulfuric acid and acidiferous accumulators.
About 100 objects (15%) represent demerkurization installations (processing of mercury-containing waste).
Thus, objects of processing of dangerous wastes are available practically in all subjects of the Russian Federation, except for such, as the Novgorod region, the Republic of Karelia, the Republic of Kalmykia, the Penza region, the Republic of Mari El, the Republic of Tyva, the Republic of Sakha-Yakutia, Chukotka Autonomous Area, the republics of the North Caucasus.
