Abstract
The treatment of special and hazardous waste has fed, over the years, the lucrative business defined by Legambiente as “ecomafia”. In order to arrest the waste traffic that causes environmental devastation and, therefore, consequences on human health, it has been developed in Italy a new electronic monitoring system that should allow to follow all the waste collection and disposal steps. The new system for the waste traceability control (SISTRI), introduced by Ministerial Decree December 17, 2009, will replace the current paper-based management with a completely telematic system; it should allow to know real-time data on the special waste life-cycle, ensuring a greater efficiency in order to prevent illegality.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
