Las mejores prácticas de gestión de residuos de construcción y demolición en Europa: análisis comparativo. Herramientas digitales.

Abstract

Construction and demolition waste forms a significant percentage of all the waste streams generated in Europe. The European Commission has set targets and goals for this waste stream, implying the executions of circular economy principles. This paper synthesizes best practices for the management of construction and demolition waste, taking into consideration Member States that meet or even exceed those targets; specific attention is paid to those where digital tools are implemented to support the construction and demolition waste management process. An overview of the construction waste management landscape in Bulgaria is made, pointing out the main obstacles to sustainable construction and demolition waste management and the challenges of developing and launching a digital tool for optimization of the waste management processes and practices in a Eastern European country.
