DESCRIPTION

This program supports the implementation of an integrated waste management system for the collection, treatment and disposal of municipal solid waste generated in the province of Jujuy, Argentina. The integrated management system is phasing out the dumping of untreated waste, by recovering both energy and material through anaerobic digestion and a better recycling performance.

At the same time, the program is ensuring that targeted municipalities develop and implement specific integrated waste management policies, create jobs related to waste treatment, optimize waste collection and have adequate disposal facilities.

RESULTS
  • New biogas plant;
  • new and improved waste collection and recovery systems;
  • transfer stations;
  • composting plants;
  • new cells for sanitary landfills;
  • green points.
