10. Some Findings from ICBET research on waste management in the Central Federal District (Russia) Analysis of economic mechanisms of use of natural resources has shown that they do not encourage the modernization of production in order to create and implement low-waste technologies, raw materials recovery, waste-to energy conversion and “greening” of manufactured goods and services. A major limitation in the development of both raw material and energy recycling is the lack of demand for products from recycled materials (including electricity and heat) within the municipal and state orders, while the cost and quality of primary raw materials, mainly cheaper and better products from recycled materials. Very few methods are used to convert waste into energy. continued at the next page International Center for the Best Environmental Technologies `

11. Some Findings from ICBET research on waste management in the Central Federal District To overcome the permanent crisis of waste management in CFD and creating a system of solid waste management in CFD the approved in the world approach is applicable to create volatile municipal and industrial areas with a full cycle of waste management, in which the waste of commodity production are the raw materials for other industries, located in the same area, and the income from the sale of commercial products provide self-sufficiency in all the territorial-industrial complex. For industrial companies working in the field of solid waste management, work in clusters realizes the possibility of lower production costs due to increased efficiency in the use of materials and energy efficiency, waste management and reduction of environmental charges. Environmentally clustering reduces the set of disparate sources of pollution and waste, and helps reduce consumption of natural resources.

14. Waste The International Partnership for Expanding Waste Management Services of Local Authorities IPLA GLOBAL FORUM – 2015 in Moscow October 6-8, 2015 Objectives: - The primary objective is discuss ways to minimize the landfilling by transition to industrial processing and maximizing the use of waste as resources with a view to global shortage of non-renewable raw materials, energy, and other natural resources. - The secondary objective is to discuss and identify enabling conditions and key policy drivers to promote dynamic interaction between science, policy, business, and community towards such endeavor. - The Forum also aims to address various cases of successful EPR systems in the world and what lessons they can provide for the developing and emerging economies in the world. Science-Policy-Business-Community Interface Towards Maximum Resource Recovery and Minimum Landfilling towards a Resource Efficient Society.

16. CONCLUSIONS 1.Countries worldwide have similar problems with waste due to trans-boundary pollutions and globalization. 2.Only joint efforts of Governments, Business and Public organizations could save the Earth from the ecological catastrophe. 3.Russian Federation and other EAEU countries lately started to introduce measures directed at diminishing landfilling of solid waste including changes in legislation and increase of funding of waste management, to start creation of waste recycling industry in the countries. 4.Changes in legislation in EAEU countries demand use of new methods and technologies. 5.Global Forum of IPLA 2015 in Moscow could provide new impetus to international cooperation in waste management. 6.ICBET proposes to create the Unified Analyses System ( worldwide ecological network ) on the base of IPLA web-portal. The possibilities of the UN services could be involved.
