Economic Balance of the Sorting Line for Municipal Waste Processing

Abstract

The contribution focuses on the optimization of the economic balance of the sorting line for the processing of municipal waste with the aim of increasing the efficiency and sustainability of waste management. This abstract provides an overview of the key economic aspects that affect sorting line operations, including cost, revenue and financial return analysis. Major cost items include investment in modern sorting line technology, installation and commissioning costs, and operating costs associated with maintenance, energy and labor. On the revenue side, the income from the sale of sorted materials such as plastics, metals and paper and the savings achieved by reducing the volume of waste sent to landfills are analysed. The study also takes into account possible subsidies and financial support available for environmental projects. The economic analysis of a purely municipal project (without the involvement of foreign capital, the involvement of public funds and subsidies) CEVYKO includes an assessment of the overall financial efficiency, the identification of potential risks and obstacles, and the proposal of measures to increase profitability and sustainability. Special emphasis is placed on long-term economic and environmental benefits, including improving the local economy, creating jobs and reducing the ecological footprint. The results of this analysis provide valuable information for decision-making processes and strategic planning in the field of municipal waste management. The recommendations arising from this study support the efficient allocation of resources and contribute to the achievement of the CEVYKO project goals. in the field of economic sustainability.
