Generation, recycling, and neutralization of production and consumption waste
thousand tonnes
Volumes of waste generation, treatment, and disposal in Russia from 2019 to 2023 are presented in thousands of tonnes. The rows differ by waste management stage: some record only waste generation, while others show treatment or recycling processes. The annual data cover the entire country and show what proportion of production and household waste is reused in the economy

How to read this table
Comparing the rows allows for a comparison between the total volume of waste generated and the amount treated or disposed of. This highlights the gap between waste generation and its efficient utilization. Calculations are in thousands of tonnes, enabling a detailed assessment of the environmental impact over a five-year period
What is visible in these numbers
“Placement of production and consumption waste” leads the table with 934,024 thousand tonnes, “Processed production and consumption waste” closes it with 15.2 thousand tonnes. The gap between them is 61,449-fold.
