Abstract

Belgium has a federal structure administratively consisting of three separate regions which are Flanders, Walloon and Brussels capital region. Belgium is one of the important countries within European Union with a surface area of 30,518 km, an urbanization rate of %97, a population of 10,839,905, a population density of 340 person/km and 25,329 Euros of national income per capita. Belgium which recycles 73% of her household wastes is among the countries with highest recycling rate in * This study was adopted from the proceeding which was presented at 2nd International Congress on Urban and Environmental Issues and Policies in Trabzon in 2012 . * Yrd.

On this account, in the present study, waste management performance scores (WPS) were calculated for both countries by comparatively analyzing waste management policies and waste figures of Turkey and Belgium. Thus, waste management policies and the rate of implementation success of both countries were evaluated comparatively. According to the results of the analysis of administrative and legal structure of Belgium and Turkey‟s waste management policies, Belgium has been more successful than Turkey (Belgium=26, Turkey=21). In terms of total waste figures, Belgium is also more successful than Turkey. The average WPS scores were calculated as -0.04 for Belgium and as -0.17 for Turkey.

Türkiye ve Belçika’nın Atık Yönetimi Politika ve Uygulamalarının Karşılaştırmalı Analizi

Abstract

Belçika; idari olarak Flamen, Waloon ve Brüksel olmak üzere 3 ayrı bölümden oluşan federal bir yapıya sahiptir. 30,518 km2 yüzölçümü, %97‟lik kentleşme oranı , 10,839,905 nüfusu, 340 kişi/km2 nüfus yoğunluğu ve 25,329 Euro kişi başına milli geliri ile Avrupa Birliği‟nin önemli ülkelerinden biridir. Belçika evsel atıkların %73‟ünü geri dönüştürerek Avrupa‟nın en yüksek geri dönüşümünü sağlayan ülkeleri arasında yer almaktadır. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada Türkiye ve Belçika‟daki atık yönetim politikaları ve uygulamada elde edilen sonuçlar karşılaştırmalı olarak analiz edilerek her iki ülke için Atık Yönetimi Performans Puanları (APP) hesaplanmıştır. Böylece her iki ülkenin atık yönetimi politikaları ve uygulama başarıları karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Analiz sonuçlarına göre; her iki ülkenin atık yönetimini konu alan idari ve yasal düzenlemeleri karşılaştırıldığında Belçika‟nın Türkiye‟den daha başarılı olduğu (Belçika=26, Türkiye=21 puan) görülmüştür. APP puanları açısından 0.04 puan elde eden Belçika, 0.17 puan elde eden Türkiye‟ye göre daha başarılı bulunmuştur.
