Abstract
Introduction. Improving the management system of industrial and consumption waste of the Russian Railways, waste processing and recycling are some of the main focuses of the company's environmental strategy.
Materials and methods. The paper statistically analyses official data on the generation of industrial and consumption waste for 2015-2021, examines waste generation trends by hazard classes and volumes of annual waste dumping.
Results. The statistical analysis shows that the process of generation of industrial and consumption waste and the annual amount of waste over the past seven years slightly decreases. The share of hazardous waste is approximately 25% of the total waste mass. This period sees total landfill volumes tend to decrease, likely due to less use of highly hazardous goods, more installations for the safe processing of industrial waste, and measures to increase waste recycling.
Discussion and conclusion. New approaches help decrease waste generation: recycling of worn sleepers, waste oil, ferrous and non-ferrous scrap and other waste; electronic document management to save paper and cardboard.
