Celem artykułu jest prezentacja korzyści wynikających z wdrożonego rozwiązania technologii mobilnej mającej na celu wspomaganie selektywnej zbiórki odpadów na terenach gmin. Przedstawiono aktualne obowiązki gmin w zakresie gospodarki odpadami skategoryzowane w ramach realizowanych funkcji wynikających z ustawy o utrzymaniu czystości i porządku w gminach. Zaprezentowano rozwiązania w zakresie organizacji zbiórki odpadów, edukacji społeczeństwa, przekazywania informacji i realizacji działań kontrolnych. Zidentyfikowane zostały mankamenty funkcjonujących obecnie systemów zbiórki odpadów komunalnych i na ich podstawie wskazano proponowane rozwiązanie występujących problemów przy wykorzystaniu technologii informacyjnych. Artykuł jest elementem prac, których podstawowym celem jest poprawa efektywności funkcjonowania systemów zbiórki odpadów komunalnych organizowanych przez gminy znajdujące się na terenie Polski.

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.

Objectives: Services provided in the general economic interest constitute a fairly significant research field with regard to public management, involving different local governing tasks, including municipal waste management. Full management of municipal waste services is carried out by individual municipalities (from July 2013 onwards), therefore the purpose of the article is pinpointing the municipal waste management providers (Municipally Owned Companies) in Polish provincial cities, including those using the in-house model. Research Design & Methods: The process of identifying the entities engaged in waste management as municipally owned companies (referred hereafter as “MOCs”) is preceded by a theoretical analysis of the peculiarities of municipal waste and municipal waste management, both of which are regarded as crucial and having imminent economic and social consequences. During that theoretical analysis the authors applied the European Union hierarchy on waste management in establishing the following waste management criteria: achieving of a specified rate of recovery and recycling; standardisation of the magnitude and structure of waste flows directed to incineration plants and landfill; and comprehensiveness of the waste management system. Findings: It has been established that MOCs (including those operating via in-house orders) are the principal type of entities which provide municipal waste management services in the cities included in the analysis. Implications / Recommendations: The article shows a clear need for further research on the efficiency of MOCs regarding the provision and performance of public utility services and tasks. Contribution / Value Added: The conducted research provides evidence supporting the statement that municipal waste management is performed mostly by MOCs, which are entrusted with public utility tasks through tender procedures or, more frequently, via in-house orders. Such entities co-operate with the private sector, with private sector firms often owning specialised installations.
