Circular economy: Italy grows in waste recycling

Forward, but with so much more to do. L'Italy va at the top of the European ranking for recycling and the economic circularity of waste, but it needs to grow more ,in particolare, suthe criterate end of waste "case by case". Second theAeneas and il Circular economy Network, our country scored 103 points of rateto continental.  Panointed calculated on the ioverall index of circularity. Translated means  is Italy had bone practices in use resource efficient, in use of raw materialsin best before date e waste management. Il first National report on the circular economy has established  is the recycling of municipal waste in 2016 was of the 45,1%, in line with the average European. DBehind Italy is Germany. Analyzing, however, all the types of waste lat recycling rate in our house leap to 67%, higher by 12 points to the European average, stop at 55%. Attentionthe Italian one cannot yet be called an economy completely planet – waste cycle included – even if they are important companies like Terna, Pirelli, Enel, Eni this year they had international awards for their businesses. 

Industrial and civil processes produce waste that are more disposed of in landfill. Albeit reduced by 25% we are far behind Germany, France and the United Kingdom, writes the recycle site news. The regions   remain the weak link in the chain of a value that it could be very high if only they cut down on bureaucracy and quickly set up new plants. It's to them that the Circular Economy Network addresses whendasks di establish efficiency criteria "case by case"We must work to strengthen let's gouone positions reached, they say, facting so that institutions and companies are able to work in an ever more synergistic way. Italian industry has repeatedly made proposals to overcome obstacles and streamline processes. With the Industry 4.0 project by calenda interventions were made on the production chains more impactful. 

Italy certainly boasts results given the importance that the circular economy has had and has in ours Country ,explains Edo Ronchi, president of the Circular Economy Network .Dwe obey ,But, commit ourselves to maintaining a high level of our performancesWe need a national plan and strategy that will allow the numerous industrial projects awaiting authorization to startAre these corrections enough, which, moreover, are not visible on the horizon? They will finish thereand disputes in the center and in the periphery, with the industry in the half, the budgets to suffer from the costs and the quirky rules ? Data analysis of the Report flows into signals to the politit is. Must have a vision more dynamic puntdor taxation, suThe incentives for innovation, On infrastructure, on everyone's involvement to go, as Ronchi says, towards a real and total ecircular economy. clarify theequI call of pensare to shoocolarità delle productioni of goods and services as a sector, a piece of the economic systemInstead, the horizon must be a new economic model, organized, of growth in which to invest resources financial and human

Not to hinder the recycling process - explains finally il Relationship  - which involves over 7 thousand plants in Italy, given the continuous innovations in technologies and types of waste treated, it is essential that the Regions authorize, also complementary, the necessary facilities. Fromi territories can be encouraged to grow further this year and overcome the 96 mila tons of recycled materials ne2017. A challenge that can be done WIN.
