At home, bio -waste will inevitably accumulate, no matter how accurate all the food. All food waste in the kitchen is part of bio -waste.

Bio -waste recycling is important for the environment, as then energy and nutrients are reused. Sorting is also worth financially: recycling by saving the cost of the house, as the price of mixed waste is higher than bio -waste. Our houses have our own waste bins or suction pipes for bio -waste.

You can put in bio -waste eg.

  • food residues and contaminated foods
  • bones, egg shells
  • fruit and vegetable shells and other parts
  • coffee reindeer, tea bags and filter papers
  • parts of the plant
  • kitchen papers, handkerchiefs, napkins - absorb moisture
  • solidified fat
  • Small wooden sticks (ice cream and toothpicks)

The bio -waste bin does not belong to

  • fluid
  • biodegradable diapers and health bridges
  • animal droppings
  • sweep dust and vacuum cleaner bags
  • soil and sand
  • Plastic bags and packaging.

No bio -waste into the drain

Bio -waste must not be poured into the dwelling sewers, as food residues, and especially the fat in them, cause blockages in the piping. So remember to recycle!

Bio -waste soil and biogas

Bio -waste is treated by composting or rotting so that methane does not enter the atmosphere. Recycled bio -waste is utilized in energy production and also made mold.

This is how you keep your odors under control

Bio -waste, especially in the summer, may let odors into the apartment - a few help for this.

  1. Frequently empty your bio -waste container. Especially meat and fish products should be taken to the waste room without delay.
  2. Wash your bio -waste container clean.
  3. Cool the warm bio -waste and allow the waste to dry before placing in the bag.
  4. Put the kitchen paper or egg cell used on the bottom of the bio -waste bag - they absorb liquids.
  5. Use a paper bag or decayed bio -waste bag to pack bio -waste. This prevents both the waste bin in your home and the containers in the waste room do not dirty and cause odor nuisance.
