Establishment of a foil recycling model with the aim of facilitating the organization for farmers and reducing the negative impact on the environment
Vzpostavitev modela reciklaže agro-stretch folije za bale in silažne folije s ciljem olajšati organizacijo za kmete in zmanjšati negativne posledice na okolje
Objectives
In practice, the challenge of where to put waste silage foil is very topical in most Slovenian regions, especially because waste does not belong to municipal waste. The problem needs to be solved, because such waste is often left in prohibited landfills, where it is toxic to air, soil and water. The foil is burned several times to make room for new waste. These are the two main negative impacts on the environment that we want to reduce within the project. As part of the project, we will focus on agro-stretch foil for bales and plastic foil for silos. The main goal of the project was to establish a foil recycling model and implement new approaches and practices for the appropriate management of such waste.
Objectives
V praksi je izziv, kam z odpadno silažno folijo, v večini slovenskih regij zelo aktualen, še posebej zato, ker odpadek ne spada med komunalne odpadke. Težavo je potrebno rešiti, ker se takšni odpadki pogosto puščajo na prepovedanih odlagališčih, kjer toksično delujejo na zrak, zemljo, vodo. Večkrat se folija sežiga, da se naredi prostor za nove odpadke. To sta dva glavna negativna vpliva na okolje, ki ju želimo v okviru projekta zmanjšati. V okviru projekta se bomo osredotočili na agro-stretch folijo za bale in plastično folijo za silose. Glavni cilj projekta je vzpostavili model recikla folije ter implementirali nove pristope in prakse za ustrezno ravnanje s takšnimi odpadki.
Activities
Farmers are responsible for taking care of the waste foil themselves. The project will therefore enable a larger number of collection centers and issue a credit to farmers for the purchase of new foil in exchange for waste foil on the basis of a weighing sheet. At the same time, we will make farmers aware of the importance of foil recycling. We will explore several open questions, such as foil materials, foil materials before and after use, foil purity, the impact of foil on the environment, we will analyze feed samples in bales and silos and the impact of weather conditions on feed and foil material. We will set up an online platform that will serve the practical implementation of the recycle foil model.
Activities
Kmetje so odgovorni, da za odpadno folijo poskrbijo sami. S projektom bomo zato omogočili večje število zbirnih centrov in kmetom v zameno za odpadno folijo na podlagi tehtalnega lista izdali tudi dobropis pri nakupu nove folije. Hkrati bomo kmete osveščali o pomembnosti reciklaže folije. Raziskali bomo več odprtih vprašanj, kot so vprašanja o materialih folije, o materialih folije pred in po uporabi, čistoči folije, vpliv folije na okolje, analizirali bomo vzorce krme v balah in silosu ter vpliv vremenskih razmer na krmo in material folije. Vzpostavili bomo spletno platformo, ki bo služila praktični izvedbi modela recika folije. V platformi bodo med drugim vidne lokacije zbirnih mest.
