Title of deliverable:
REUSEMED: maps of facilities and resources dedicated to reuse/preparation for reuse in Spain, Jordan, Tunisia and Italy
Description:
The following documents show a map of facilities and resources dedicated to reuse/preparation for reuse in the partner countries (Spain, Jordan, Tunisia, Italy) of REUSEMED project, aimed at contributing to environmental protection in the Mediterranean area through the reduction of all fractions of municipal waste.
For the purposes of this work, the concepts of reuse and preparation for reuse have been considered as follows:
- Reuse: any operation by which products or components that are not considered waste are reused for the same purpose for which they were originally conceived;
- preparation for reuse: control, cleaning and repair operations whereby products or their components that have become waste are prepared for reuse without further intensive treatment.
The reports describe the territorial scopes, the regulatory situation regarding reuse in each region considered, regional activities related to reuse, government financial aid options in the context of overall waste management, some websites or mobile applications that facilitate the purchase-sale, donation, loan or exchange of products. There is also a list of entities dealing with reuse/preparation for reuse.
