ABOUT THE PROBLEM OF MSW IN THE LPR AND THE BASIC CONCEPTS OF ITS SOLUTIONS
The state of waste in the Lugansk People's Republic is considered. On the example of the Luhansk Waste Utilization Center, the volume of waste generation in Lugansk and the infrastructure for the collection, removal and disposal of solid waste was analyzed. A preliminary assessment of the annual generation of waste in the republic was made. It is shown that the existing model of solid waste utilization is morally outdated and requires its rethinking. As a result of the analysis of existing methods of utilization of solid waste, preference was given to the method of separate waste collection and the involvement of secondary raw materials separated from solid waste into economic circulation. A program (concept) for further research was proposed to solve the problem of waste in the LPR.
