Ukraine: The construction of an upcoming waste processing plant in Derhachi, Kharkiv Oblast, is 97% complete. The plant will process 250,000t/yr of waste and create 152 new jobs. Eco Politic News has reported that the plant will also collect landfill gas, which will be used in power generation.
The Ukrainian State Environmental Inspectorate said “Kharkiv is not only one of the largest cities in Ukraine, but also located in the frontline zone, so effective waste management in the city is an indicator not only of environmental awareness but also of readiness for crisis situations.”
