The expert explained that it was necessary to place in Levashovo is incinerator

In the village of Levashovo in St. Petersburg will be waste-processing complex. Instead of a waste incineration plant on the selected site can accommodate ekotekhnopark, convinced the representative of the project “Separate collection” Anna Garkusha. The opinion she expressed at the press conference in “Interfax North-West”.

“for many years in Levashovo was a huge illegal dump, now she rekultiviruemye, and according to the master Plan there is a dedicated area on which may be erected a powerful plant for the treatment of waste. However, there can create processing or sorting stations and incinerators — in the General Plan complexes for this purpose are marked with the same icon. Environmentalists and local residents, of course, against burning,” said Anna Garkusha.

According to her, the ideal solution would be to ekotekhnopark, where different private companies would provide space for the sort of secondary resource. At the moment, in the Leningrad region and St. Petersburg are about 25 processing companies, said the expert.

“However, the authorities did nothing in order to collect the waste separately, or to prevent their occurrence, but immediately started pushing the idea of the construction of this plant. Although if we had implemented the technology for handling and storage of waste, were to burn and nothing special,” said Garkusha.

the Expert said that the residents of Levashovo will not mind ecotechnopark, which does not harm the environment, however, the credibility of the authorities there.

“what kind Of confidence can say, if they write first about recycling and then you say that the end product will be the energy?” asked Anna Garkusha.
