Industrial and construction waste management, Economic models and methodsAbstract
The study illustrates how commonly known business economic models and methods, as well
as the Polluter-Pays Principle, can be applied to industrial and construction waste
management so as to facilitate environmental optimisation of industrial and construction
waste fractionation, Conclusions are drawn stating that the use of altered economic models is
viable as a basis for industrial and construction waste assessment. This is aimed at making
industry act in a manner truly in accordance with the conception of a sustainable development
according to the shift of waste management paradigms proposed by the author.
