Abstract

Amid growing interest in recycling around the world, the amount of waste is increasing despite the separate discharge efforts of each household, and it is difficult to find accurate data on recycling household waste. Also, recycling segregation is already settled in our daily lives, but we face a serious problem in which a significant portion of the recyclables collected are re-waste. In this study has been proposed a cash compensation system for recyclables, which is paid cash when the recyclables are washed clean and discharged. The cash compensation system proposed in this study could re-use 100% of the discharged recyclables, resulting in rewards for good deeds for individuals, greater returns for businesses and reduced disposal costs for local governments. In addition, it is expected that the government will be able to secure data related to the recycling of domestic waste, which will contribute to the management of recyclables at the national level.

전 세계적으로 재활용에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있는 가운데, 각 가정의 분리배출 노력에도 불구하고 폐기물의 양은 점점 늘어나고 있으며, 생활폐기물 재활용에 관한 정확한 데이터는 찾기 어려운 실정이다. 또한 재활용품 분리수거는 이미 우리 일상에 정착되었지만 수거된 재활용품중 상당량이 다시 폐기물화 되는 심각한 문제에 직면하고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 생활폐기물 재활용 활성화 방안으로, 재활용품을 깨끗이 씻어 배출하면 현금을 지급하는 재활용품 현금보상시스템을 제안하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 현금보상시스템은 배출된 재활용품을 100%재활용하여 개인에게는 공익적 행위에 대한 보상을, 기업에는 더 많은 수익을 그리고 지자체에는 폐기물 감소로 인한 처리비용 절감효과를 가져올 수 있다. 더불어 생활폐기물 재활용관련 데이터를 확보할 수 있어 향후 국가차원의 재활용품 관리에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
