摘要

This study examines differences in cost and recycling performance between single and multi-stream recycling systems in Ontario, Canada. Using panel data from 223 provincial municipalities spanning a ten year period, focus is placed on analyzing: (a) Are material management costs for municipalities who implement single stream collection less than those that implement multi stream collection? (b) Are recycling rates for single stream municipalities higher than municipalities with multi stream collection? (c) Do municipalities with multi stream collection realize higher revenues from the sale of recyclable material? The results of the analysis show that while single stream recycling programs recycle more than multi stream programs, they face significantly higher material management costs. This was contrary to the prevailing opinion that single stream recycling is a cheaper alternative to multi-stream recycling. As far as can be ascertained, this is one of the few studies of its kind to examine the differences in material management costs and recycling performance between single and multi-stream recycling systems. This topic is of increasing importance, as single stream recycling is being touted as preferred waste management option in both Ontario and abroad.

(c)具有多流收集功能的市政当局是否通过销售可回收材料实现更高的收入?分析结果表明,尽管单流回收程序比多流程序回收的资源更多,但它们面临着显着更高的物料管理成本。这与普遍观点相反,即单流回收是多流回收的更便宜的替代选择。可以确定的是,这是同类研究中为数不多的研究之一,旨在研究单流和多流回收系统之间物料管理成本和回收性能的差异。这个话题越来越重要,因为在安大略省和国外,单流循环被吹捧为首选的废物管理选择。
