Abstract

Waste management in historical city centres may be challengeable for waste handling operatives. In this paper a developed plan is presented for vacuum waste collection system for the historical city centre of Sibiu, Romania, together with its feasibility and opportunities. The main goal is to improve the urban environment, maintain the historic appeal, and stimulate local economic activity. This optimal solution is following the models of other European cities. The system is designed for the main streets and the total waste amount is calculated; moreover the number of population served is correlated with seasonal tourist flow. The following research is provided as an example to be followed by other cities facing the same challenges.
