El Proyecto de R\u00e9cords en Reducci\u00f3n de Residuos del Instituto para la Autosuficiencia Local fomenta el desarrollo de programas excepcionales de reducci\u00f3n de residuos mediante la documentaci\u00f3n de los que han tenido \u00e9xito. Estos programas pueden servir de modelo para otros que deseen implementar sus propios programas de reducci\u00f3n de basura.<\/p>\n

El paquete de informaci\u00f3n \u00abNo tire esa comida\u00bb que se incluye a continuaci\u00f3n est\u00e1 dirigido a los generadores comerciales e institucionales de residuos alimentarios y destaca los programas de recuperaci\u00f3n de alimentos que han batido r\u00e9cords.<\/p>\n

El Proyecto de R\u00e9cords en Reducci\u00f3n de Residuos fue desarrollado por el Instituto para la Autosuficiencia Local (ILSR) con una subvenci\u00f3n de la Agencia de Protecci\u00f3n Ambiental de los Estados Unidos (EPA). .<\/p>\n

Fichas informativas de casos pr\u00e1cticos<\/p>\n

1. Recinto ferial Del Mar, Del Mar, California <\/a><\/p>\n

75% Recuperaci\u00f3n de residuos alimenticios En 1996, Del Mar Fairgrounds, un recinto de 375 acres, desvi\u00f3 38 toneladas, o aproximadamente 75%, de sus residuos alimenticios del vertedero. El recinto ferial logr\u00f3 este objetivo gracias a un programa integral de reducci\u00f3n de residuos que incluye: el compostaje fuera del recinto de los alimentos de su feria anual de 20 d\u00edas (1 018 659 visitantes en 1996); el vermicompostaje de los alimentos de su instalaci\u00f3n de apuestas sat\u00e9lite; y el env\u00edo del aceite de cocina usado a una empresa de procesamiento.\"foodsidebar\"<\/a><\/p>\n

2. Fletcher Allen Health Care, Burlington, Vermont<\/a><\/p>\n

90% Recuperaci\u00f3n de desechos alimenticios preconsumo El campus Fletcher Allen Health Care del Medical Center Hospital of Vermont (MCHV) entrega aproximadamente 90% de sus restos de preparaci\u00f3n de alimentos y sobras de mesas de vapor a una instalaci\u00f3n de compostaje externa. El hospital tambi\u00e9n dona productos agr\u00edcolas a un banco de alimentos y env\u00eda la grasa usada a una planta de procesamiento. Su programa de recuperaci\u00f3n de desechos alimenticios permite a Fletcher Allen ahorrar aproximadamente $1,400 al a\u00f1o en transporte al vertedero y tasas de vertido, adem\u00e1s de apoyar a una granja local.<\/p>\n

3. YMCA de Frost Valley, Claryville, Nueva York<\/a><\/p>\n

100% Recuperaci\u00f3n de desechos alimenticios Mediante un sistema de compostaje aer\u00f3bico est\u00e1tico, esta instalaci\u00f3n residencial educativa y recreativa de 6,000 acres situada en las monta\u00f1as Catskill composta 100% de los desechos alimenticios de su cocina y comedor. Desde 1990, cuando Frost Valley inici\u00f3 su programa integral de reducci\u00f3n de residuos, hasta 1997, la instalaci\u00f3n redujo su total de residuos s\u00f3lidos en 53% (en peso). Gracias a la recuperaci\u00f3n de alimentos, Frost Valley obtiene ahora un ahorro neto de $5200 al a\u00f1o y ofrece una oportunidad educativa \u00fanica a miles de visitantes cada a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n

4. Programa de lugares de trabajo ecol\u00f3gicos Gobierno de Ontario<\/a><\/p>\n

70% Recuperaci\u00f3n de residuos alimenticios En 1991, el Gobierno de Ontario (Canad\u00e1) cre\u00f3 el Programa de Lugares de Trabajo Ecol\u00f3gicos (GWP, por sus siglas en ingl\u00e9s). El GWP facilita la reducci\u00f3n de residuos, la conservaci\u00f3n de recursos y las compras responsables con el medio ambiente en las instalaciones provinciales. Como parte integral de los programas de reducci\u00f3n de residuos del GWP, el compostaje desvi\u00f3 aproximadamente 1500 toneladas m\u00e9tricas (1650 toneladas estadounidenses) de residuos alimenticios de los vertederos en el a\u00f1o fiscal 1996. Gracias a todos sus programas de compostaje combinados (en contenedores, in situ y fuera de las instalaciones), el Gobierno de Ontario evit\u00f3 C$150 000 en costos de eliminaci\u00f3n de basura en el a\u00f1o fiscal 1996. De este costo evitado, C$8580 proced\u00eda de su programa en contenedores.<\/p>\n

5. Larry's Markets, Seattle, Washington<\/a><\/p>\n

90% Recuperaci\u00f3n de residuos alimenticios y florales Larry\u2019s Markets recupera aproximadamente 870 toneladas de materia org\u00e1nica al a\u00f1o a trav\u00e9s de sus programas de compostaje y procesamiento fuera de las instalaciones. Las tiendas tambi\u00e9n donan productos enlatados a organizaciones ben\u00e9ficas locales. La cadena obtiene un ahorro neto de $40-$55 por tonelada de material recuperado (alrededor de $41,000 al a\u00f1o).<\/p>\n

6. Middlebury College, Middlebury, Vermont<\/a><\/p>\n

75% Recuperaci\u00f3n de residuos alimenticios Los estudiantes y empleados del Middlebury College recolectaron aproximadamente 288 toneladas de residuos alimenticios para su compostaje en el campus en 1996. Esto represent\u00f3 aproximadamente 75% del total de residuos alimenticios de la universidad. Como resultado de su programa de compostaje, Middlebury evita aproximadamente $137 por tonelada en gastos de transporte y vertido en vertederos. En 1996, esto supuso un ahorro neto de m\u00e1s de $27 000.<\/p>\n

7. Departamento de Servicios Correccionales del Estado de Nueva York (DOCS), Nueva York<\/a><\/p>\n

90% Recuperaci\u00f3n de desechos alimenticios En 1997, 47 de las 70 instalaciones penitenciarias del Departamento de Servicios Penitenciarios del Estado de Nueva York (DOCS) realizaban compostaje en 30 emplazamientos, que aceptaban entre 1\/2 y 4 toneladas de desechos alimenticios al d\u00eda. Los centros participantes recuperan 90% de sus residuos alimenticios y otros residuos org\u00e1nicos. Gracias al compostaje, los centros del DOCS consiguen un ahorro neto de $564 200 d\u00f3lares al a\u00f1o en costes de eliminaci\u00f3n evitados.<\/p>\n

8. Programa de reciclaje de productos agr\u00edcolas de San Francisco, California.<\/a><\/p>\n

50% Recuperaci\u00f3n Iniciado en 1996, el Programa de Reciclaje de Productos Agr\u00edcolas de San Francisco es un esfuerzo colaborativo entre muchos participantes p\u00fablicos y privados: la ciudad y el condado, empresas agr\u00edcolas, un agricultor, un transportista, un banco de alimentos y una empresa de compostaje. Entre junio de 1996 y agosto de 1997, este programa proporcion\u00f3 450 toneladas de alimentos comestibles a organizaciones ben\u00e9ficas, 300 toneladas de alimentos no comestibles para la alimentaci\u00f3n animal y 750 toneladas de alimentos a una planta de compostaje. En ese periodo, los residuos alimentarios proced\u00edan de m\u00e1s de 40 empresas mayoristas y minoristas; desde entonces, el programa se ha ampliado considerablemente.<\/p>\n

9. Supermercados Shop Rite, Nueva Jersey<\/a><\/p>\n

80% Recuperaci\u00f3n de residuos alimenticios y otros residuos org\u00e1nicos En Nueva Jersey, 25 tiendas Shop Rite desv\u00edan 3000 toneladas de residuos org\u00e1nicos al a\u00f1o. Recogen una amplia variedad de materiales para su compostaje y transformaci\u00f3n fuera de las instalaciones. Como resultado, las tiendas participantes desv\u00edan aproximadamente 80% de sus residuos org\u00e1nicos a una planta de compostaje y 90% de su flujo total de residuos mediante el reciclaje, incluido el compostaje. De media, las tiendas obtienen un ahorro neto de $57 por tonelada en costes de eliminaci\u00f3n evitados.<\/p>\n
