Abstract

The paper concerns an analysis of waste management at VŠB – Technical University of Ostrava (VŠB-TUO). The paper focuses mainly
on mixed municipal waste, and paper and cardboard waste, which make up the largest part of all waste generated at this university.
The results of analyses of these three types of waste are presented. The analyses were carried out to determine the actual raw material
composition of the contents of the collection bins and to determine how full they were on collection days. The studies were carried out
within the framework of national waste legislation in line with European Union legislation. The results of these analyses served as the
basis for the development of a waste management concept at the university.
