Better quality of collected waste
Limited street exposure of waste
Positive effects on hygiene and
appearance of the city
Benefits of door to door collection
Amsa is the company part of the A2A Group that has been
managing for over a hundred years the Integrated Waste
Cycle (from collection to transport and treatment) and
cleanliness of the city of Milan.
Current waste collection is based on:
• door to door collection throughout the city with:
- bins (paper and cardboard, glass and food waste)
- bags (light metals, plastic, residual waste)
55.000 waste collection points
230 bring banks for paper and glass
bulky waste collection service at home by appointment,
free of charge at road level and directly at home with
charge
5 civic amenity sites for hazardous and bulky waste
and 1 mobile civic amenity site

At the beginning of 2000, in Milan was implemented an integrated system mainly based on:
1. Maximizing separate waste collection for recycling plants
2. Recovery of energy and heat through thermal treatment from NOT recyclable waste
3. Zero landfill (since 1997)

The household packaging waste management is set up by the Italian law and is based on the establishment of CONAI, the national no-profit packaging consortium, adhesion to which is compulsory for all packaging producers and users with the aim of achieving the recovery and recycling targets set by the EU.
For the recovery and recycling operations of individual materials, CONAI co-ordinates the activities of all the consortia for other materials (steel, aluminum, paper, wood, plastic and glass)
Milan collects all of the 6 main packaging materials, mostly separated at the source, to ensure the best quality and best recycling performances
Milan has its own plant only for glass sorting (Amsa SpA) while all the other materials are treated in other plants that participate in the CONAI recycling system

The Legislative Decree 151 of 2005 states that EEE Producers are responsible for financing transportation, treatment, recovery and disposal of WEEE from their own products. Producers have a collective responsibility, proportionally to their respective share of the market. This responsibility is exercised through the establishment of Collective Schemes.
The Coordination Centre, managed and regulated by the Collective Schemes under the supervision of the WEEE Compliance and Control Committee, ensures that the all collective systems work with harmonised modalities and operative conditions.
•WEEE groupings:
R1 Refrigerating equipment
R2 “Great whites”
R3 TV and Monitors
R4 Small appliances, consumer electronics, appliances and more enlightening
R5 Light Sources
The new WEEE Directive approved by the European parliament establishes that in 2019 must be recovered 65% of the average weight of electrical and electronic equipment put on the market in the preceding 3 years.
For Italy it means that the system must reach an average of about 10 kg/inhabitant.
In 2012 AMSA collected in Milan 3,130 tons of WEEE, approximately 2.32 kg/inhabitant. -10 tons of light sources R5

European Directive on Waste
EU Commission proposals to review recycling and other waste-related targets represent an important step towards improving resource efficiency and moving closer to a circular European economy. They set out ambitious goals proposed to increase the share of recycling and preparing for reuse of municipal waste to a minimum of 50% by weight by 2020 and to a minimum of 70% by weight by 2030.
Objectives of waste collection in Italy
The current Italian legislation does not set targets for recycling, but identifies specific targets for separate collection to be achieved by 2012* (under revision)
* National Environmental draft law sets the goal
of 65% of separate collection to be reached in 2016

ACTION PLAN
To increase results achieved in the past years, Amsa started in 2012 a two phase plan:
1. Introduction, in mid february, of the trasparent bag to replace the traditional black bag for the collection of the residual waste to divert and easily control plastic, glass and paper still present in the residual waste
2. Organic waste collection (food waste) extended to households, starting November 2012
SIDE ACTIONS
Awareness and communication campaign to all the citizens
Targeted controls and sanctions (42,379 for WASTE NON CONFORMITY in 2013)
GENERAL GOALS
Increase separate collection rate and recover household organic fraction (anaerobic digestion and composting)
Keep the qualitative results of the current waste collection service
Customer Satisfaction survey shows in April 2013 a mean value greater than 8 over 10 as a maximum value for the waste collection services
Benefit by a “trailing phenomen” with positive feedbacks on quantity, but especially on quality of all recyclable fractions
This information was prepared by Amsa and it is not to be relied on by any 3rd party without Amsa’s prior written consent. 12
In February 2012 the use of transparent bag was introduced in place of the black bag for the collection of the residual fraction.
Specific Objectives
Diversion of plastic, glass and paper still present in the residual waste
Checking more easily for recyclable waste fractions erroneously put together with residual waste.
Results (after 6 months)
Significant increase of plastic (+1%), paper (+0.7%), glass (+0.2%)
* The compulsory use of transparent bags was launched in view of the introduction of the household organic waste collection
1. Introduction of the transparent bag

Note: bins are given free loan to citizens
The small kitchen bin has a special airy structure to ensures optimal oxygenation of the bag and its content to minimize the inconvenience related to the formation of odors and liquids.
Bioplastics bags have properties and characteristics of use very similar to traditional plastics, but at the same time, they are biodegradable and compostable according to the European standard EN 13432

Household organic waste quality results
Biowaste collected in Milan is treated in anaerobic digestion plant with energy recovery (biogas) and production of good quality compost.
Organic fraction collected has to comply with AD plant requirements. So after every step of implementation, food waste composition analysis were performed in collaboration with the Parco di Monza Agronomy School revealing:
Good quality of samples taken from January 2013 to June 2014, with Non Compostable Material (NCM%) equal to 4.34%
In all samples, the compostable fraction is almost exclusively composed of kitchen waste, with a negligible (on average <3%) fraction of paper, cardboard and green waste
Plastic is the main contaminant, in particularly the plastic bags used inappropriately for containing the organic fraction

Conclusions and future steps
22
The case of Milan shows how it is possible to separate recyclable waste in densely populated metropolitan cities, with excellent quantitative results and high standards of the collection service
The waste collection system adopted by Milan – door to door - proves to be more efficient compared to other methods adopted by Italian and European cities in order to achieve the recycling targets set by the European Directives
The door to door organic waste collection has exceeded our expectations, leading Milan to over 50% recycling (September 2014) with all the residents served by this new collection
For achieving the new recycling targets expected by EU Commision, Milan will have to improve new separate collection services focused on specific targets with low capture-rate (for example paper and WEEE from office buildings and institutions or cardboard and other packaging wastes from small business and retail trade or biowaste from open markets)
Further Milan will have to extend its sorting and recycling plant network: in this direction EU and regional funds will play an important role in order to support investments based on innovative technology
Milan will have also to carry on with a widespread awareness campaign and to develop new projects in order to improve waste prevention and reuse (for example food distribution from restaurants and canteens to charities or repairing center close to civic amenity sites)
