Abstract: At the present time the majority of wastes have negative influence on the environment. At the same time, about 70% of wastes can be used repeatedly, as raw material, transforming them into new products and materials. Russia possesses the existing and commissioned waste recycling and waste burning plants. But only 3-15% of municipal solid waste are utilized. Moreover, many of these plants are not loaded at full capacity or have to buy the wastes abroad. This is due to the fact that Russia still doesn’t have effective system of wastes treatment – separate collection and following utilization or waste neutralization. To prevent the increase of areas of used municipal solid waste fields and unauthorized dumps, it’s required to track the full chain of wastes movement from the place of their formation to the place of their dumping.
