One of the biggest challenges in the city right now is rubbish and in particular, how to separate it effectively. As the number of people living in cities grows, the greater waste flows become. And it is large cities, above all, which have an opportunity to implement innovative solutions for the separation of household waste.<\/p>\n
In 2016, the City of Utrecht set itself the task of solving its urban problem of too much waste in too small a space. At the same time, the authorities were also aiming to make the city\u2019s limited public spaces as attractive as possible. Theo Heller, project manager for the Utrecht municipality, explained that the biggest stumbling blocks to this were a lack of collection capacity, minimal public space and the reduction in refuse collection trucks. To meet this challenge, once the contract had been put out to tender Sidcon\u2019s underground compactor was selected as the best solution. As it happened, these compactors slotted perfectly into the existing concrete wells, doing away with the need for additional underground infrastructure and, in turn, foregoing any extra costs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
