New Environmental Bio-Reality

Solid waste and wastewater management are considered to be among the major environmental elements to be tackled through the contamination of air, soil and surface and ground waters and the subsequent degradation of the local natural ecosystems. The need for recovery of natural resources through recycling actions and treatment of solid wastes and wastewaters characterizes the eligible area on both sides of the border. 

Specifically, the project includes the elaboration of several studies, concerning specific issues about biological wastes, and training actions in order to support recycling actions of biological wastes. These outputs are seen as complementary and enhancing the effectiveness of the project’s core interventions that include the following;
- Pilot composting plants and bio-wastes collection system 
- Remediation of the waste water  station in Sveti Nikole 
- Study for improvement of the organic waste collection in Municiaplity of Prilep and surrounding municipalities 

- Equipment for the composting station in Prilep for separation of the organic wastes 
- Recyclable Waste collection vehicle 

- Evaluation of composting indicators 

Development of tools, purchase of equipment and infrastructure works for effective waste management, will contribute to improved living standards and environmental conditions, better use of natural resources, increased attractiveness of the area for visitors and improved employment opportunities in environmental and touristic services.
