The project – ATHENS BIOWASTE
Project Duration: Sep 2011 – August 2014
Participants: NTUA, ESDKNA, City of Athens, Municipality of Kifissia, EPTA S.A.
Main Targets - Actions:Establishment of a separate collection system for biowaste in the City of Athens and the Municipality of Kifissia (pilot area of 3000 inhabitants in each Municipality)Composting of the biowaste in the MBT facility of ESDKAEvaluating compost quality Development of a bio-waste management software tool

Municipality of KifissiaCase study - areas
Commercial Centre of Kifissia and N. Eryrthaia
Low density areas: Kefalari & Kastri (15-20 inh/ha),
Medium density areas: Kato Kifissia & N. Kifissia (40 inh/ha)
Methods of Separate Collection
Kerbside Collection with 2-wheel bins 120-360 lt. ▫ for the whole City of Athens ▫ Commercial areas in Kifissia▫ Medium density areas in Kifissia
Door-to-door Collection with home Containers ≈30 lt▫ for low density areas in Kifissia
Door-to-door Collection with 2-wheel bins ≈120 lt▫ For restaurants and hotels or other major
producers
Methods of Separate Collection
Kitchen caddies/bins 7lt
Bags from compostable organic material (like corn or potato starch) or paper
Collection with small vehicle 5m3 with low compaction
Online fleet monitoring system
Methods of Awareness Campaign
Wide dissemination through local press & radio Focused on citizens:▫1st Phase: Letter of the Mayor to the participating citizens together with an informational leaflet
▫2nd Phase: Distribution of home caddies/bins & bags & one page brochure
▫3rd Phase: Feedback & supply of compost
initiation of separate collection
How the project can contribute to the waste management policy in Greece?
By demonstrating to other Municipalities how a separate collection system for biowaste can be planned and implemented
By initiating composting of biowaste in the greater Athens area, taking into account that 3 composting plants are to be constructed within the next years
By evaluating the compost quality in accordance with standards such as Eco-Label correlating it with different collection systems
By producing an innovative software tool which will evaluate the carbon footprint as well as the costs of alternative biowaste collection and treatment solutions.
