MANAGEMENT OF INDUSTRIAL AND DOMESTIC SOLID WASTES IN THE REPUBLIC OF ARMENIA

In Armenia we have a highly developed industry, chemistry, building industry based on local materials, metallurgy, engineering industry, contemporary technologies, food and textile industries. Armenia has also a good energy system, including an atomic power station, two great thermoelectric power stations, and hydroelectric stations. Our agriculture is also developed in different branches and in the republic there is a great number of hazardous industrial wastes. Domestic and specific quantity of wastes per person if greater than in other countries, because in our industry we have insufficient resource-saving technologies, and practically secondary use and utilization of wastes does not exist.
