Background: There is a growing problem of the increasing amount of unsorted municipal wastes with the resulting consequences for the environment. The aim of this study was to present a new solutions of the system for the decentral fractioning of municipal wastes, which enable simplification and improvement of the process together with the reduction of total costs. Methods: The description of the problem of the increasing amount of unsorted municipal wastes with the resulting consequences for the environment as well as an alternative solution for the decentral fractioning of such wastes was presented. The influence onto the environment as well as the efficiency of the costly mechanical sorting of wastes was queried. The nowadays used principles of sorted and unsorted waste disposal were elucidated and their advantages and disadvantages evaluated. Results and conclusions: Based on this evaluation an innovative and future oriented development of an automated system for the decentral fractioning of municipal wastes was presented. The new developed systems aim at the achievement of an easier, less costly and environment-friendlier process for the disposal of municipal wastes from apartment buildings.

Artykuł podejmuje problematykę wpływu norm społecznych na deklarowane preferencje dotyczące selektywnej zbiórki w gospodarstwach domowych. Przeprowadzony eksperyment bada oddziaływanie informacji o odsetku mieszkańców segregujących odpady (reprezentujących lokalne i krajowe normy społeczne) na deklarowane wybory respondentów odnośnie do własnego sortowania. Badanie przeprowadzono w trzech polskich miastach: Warszawie, Krakowie i Białymstoku, wykorzystując warunki eksperymentalne różnicujące lokalne i narodowe normy społeczne. Działanie informacji zostało zbadane za pomocą analizy wyborów dyskretnych. Wyniki pracy mogą zostać wykorzystane w polityce opartej na behawioralnym schemacie „zielonych impulsów”. Dostarczają także cennego wkładu w poznanie znaczenia norm społecznych odnoszących się do różnych poziomów odniesienia – lokalnych i krajowych.

The aim of this paper is to analyze the impact of information on social norms on Poles’ declared preferences regarding sorting waste. The conducted experiment examines effects of information on local and national social norms, represented by the proportion of residents sorting waste at households, on respondents’ declared choices on sorting at household level. The experiment was conducted in three Polish cities: Cracow, Warsaw and Bialystok; experimental conditions were created by presenting differing local and national social norms. To answer research questions, a discrete choice experiment (DCE) was employed. The results may be applied to create policy based on behavioral scheme called green nudges. They also contribute considerably to understanding of the role of social norms while referring to different − geographically closer (city level) and further (national) − groups.
