Separate waste collection makes a difference!
Separate waste collection gives new life to materials that are still potentially useful, removing them from the cycle that leads to disposal.
Politecnico is investing to improve the quality of waste separation through the creation of new infrastructures, awareness-raising and training activities, and dedicated projects. One of these is the project for the collection of small WEEE and batteries, launched by the Politecnico di Milano in collaboration with Centro di coordinamento RAEE, Centro di coordinamento pile e accumulatori, AMSA and Municipality of Milan in May 2024, with the placement of 26 containers for the collection of exhausted batteries at the two Milan campuses of the University, of which 19 were placed in Città Studi campus and the remaining 7 in Bovisa campus.
With everyone’s contribution, we can make a difference!
Be mindful when you dispose of your recyclable waste, as it may otherwise be discarded as non-separated waste, preventing any possibility of recovery.
Help us achieve quality waste separation by following the simple rules on the dedicated flyer, which you can download in both Italian and English.
