Abstract
Otpad je jedan od problema suvremene civilizacije te je ujedno i središnji problem oko zaštite
okoliša. Otpadom nazivamo sve materijale koji su nastali kao jedna od posljedica ljudske
djelatnosti, a koji nisu ponovo upotrebljivi odnosno netko ih je odbacio. On nastaje
djelovanjem ljudske djelatnosti u svim sferama kućanstva u svakodnevnom životu ljudi do
otpada koji se nalaze u proizvodnim i uslužnim djelatnostima. Otpad ne spada pod gomilu
neiskoristivih tvari te on nužno ne mora postati smeće.
S obzirom na svojstva koji djeluju na zdravlje ljudi te okoliša, otpad dijelimo na opasni i
neopasni otpad. Opasni otpad je otpad koji se sastoji barem od jedne ili više svojstava koji će
ugroziti zdravlje ljudi i okoliša, dok neopasni otpad ne sadržava niti jedno od opasnih
svojstava koji može ugroziti čovjeka ili okoliš.
Velik broj proizvoda se svakodnevno diljem svijeta proizvodi te naravno te proizvode
stanovništvo svakodnevno koristi, a nakon tog korištenja oni uobičajeno odlažu ostatke
otpada u za to predviđena mjesta.
Postoji velik problem u odlaganju otpada većih količina proizvoda te tako dolazi jedno od
rješenja a to je efikasan sustav gospodarenja otpadom. Gospodarenje otpadom se smatra kao
jedna od vrsta djelatnosti koja obuhvaća sve grane gospodarstva, a u sebi sadržava čitav niz
raznih postupaka.
Cilj završnog rada je upoznati se s pojmom gospodarenja otpadom te koji su njegovi
problemi koji će uvelike utjecati na samo zdravlje ljudi, okoliš te zrak. Svrha završnog rada je
upoznati se s kojim se problemima Republika Hrvatska susreće kada je riječ o ne adekvatnom
odlaganju otpada.Waste is one of the problem of modern civilization and at the same time a central problem
about environmental protection. We refer to waste as all material created as a result of human
activity that cannot be reused or discarded by someone. It is created by the action of human
activity in all spheres of the household in people's daily lives to waste contained in
manufacturing and service activities. Waste does not belong beneath a pile of useless
substances and not necessarily become trash.
Given the properties that work on human health and the environment, we divide waste into
hazardous and non-hazardous waste. Hazardous waste is waste which is made of at least one
or more properties which will endanger human and environmental health, while nonhazardous waste does not contain any of the hazardous properties which may endanger
humans or the environment.
Large number of products is produced daily around the world products and of course these
products are used daily by the population and after that use they usually dispose of the
remains waste into designated places.
There is a big problem with waste disposal larger quantities of products and so one of the
solutions comes which is an efficient waste management system. Waste management is
considered as one type of activity which covers all branches of the economy, and it contains a
number of different procedures.
The aim of the final paper is to get acquainted with the concept of waste management and
what is problems which will greatly affect only human health, the environment and the air.
The purpose of the final paper is to get acquainted with the problems that the Republic of
Croatia faces when it comes to inadequate waste disposal
