Abstract

Za pravilno gospodarenje otpadom potrebno je pravilno pratiti količine komunalnog otpada te njihove izvore. U Republici Hrvatskoj glavni izvori komunalnog otpada su stanovništvo i gospodarstvo, međutim kako bi se točno utvrdila količina otpada koju pojedinačno proizvodi stanovništvo, odnosno gospodarstvo, oni bi se trebali voditi kao dvije zasebne kategorije otpada. S proizvodnjom komunalnog otpada povezuju se različiti čimbenici kao što su broj turističkih noćenja, bruto domaći proizvod, ukupne neto plaće, broj gospodarskih subjekata itd. Cilj ovog rada je statističkom analizom procijeniti koliko otpada zaista dolazi od stanovništva, a koliko od gospodarske aktivnosti. Također, u ovom radu provjerava se ispravnost već postojećih prediktivnih modela za količine komunalnog otpada te se pokušava ustanoviti razlog stalnog povećanja količine komunalnog otpada unatoč konstantnom padu broja stanovnika Republike Hrvatske.

Abstract (english)

Monitoring of the waste streams by quantity, category and source is prerequisite for proper waste management. The success of any policy for resource efficiency and for decoupling the economic growth from waste generation requires correct identification of the target groups. Generally, municipal solid waste (MSW) is generated by consumption and production that can be related to both, the population, and economic activities. However, current waste monitoring in Croatia is not enabling satisfactory distinction of MSW produced by population separately from economic activities. This paper uses statistical analyses of variables (2005-2018) related to generation of MSW such as: population, number of tourist nights, gross domestic product, total net wages and the number of business entities. To assess the quantity of MSW generated by population and by economy, as well as to check the accuracy and precision of recent predictive modelling of MSW generation. In addition, the paper is trying to find the reason behind the constant increase in the amount of municipal waste despite the constant decline in the population of the Republic of Croatia.
