Municipal waste in Italy: production, collection, management and energy recovery. Presentation of the ISPRA and Utilitalia 2023 reports
Municipal waste, production down by 1.8% compared to 2021. National separate collection exceeds 65%.
49.2% of urban waste is recycled but the difference compared to collection is still large.
In 2022, the national production of urban waste - just over 29.1 million tonnes - is not aligned with the trend of the main socio-economic indicators: in the face of increases in GDP and household expenditure (respectively, by 3.7% and 6.1%), municipal waste decreases in all geographical macro-areas. In the 14 municipalities with a resident population above 200 thousand inhabitants, between 2021 and 2022 there was a slight increase of 0.4%.
This data emerges from the ISPRA Urban Waste Report, presented on 21 December together with the Report on Energy Recovery from Waste in Italy, prepared by UTILITALIA in collaboration with Ispra, which contains information on anaerobic digestion and incineration plants with energy recovery of waste in Italy.
