It is planned to launch a first phase of the solid household waste treatment facility with the landfill gas collection and power generation system in 2019, Kharkiv Mayor Hennadiy Kernes has said.
“Next year we will open the first phase of the process… Waste will be delivered to a new landfill, and the old one will be reclaimed. This is the priority task, as the old landfill is on the verge [of being filled],” Kernes told reporters on Wednesday.
