By that standard, the three cities that send garbage to Gangnam-gu and generate a large amount of garbage themselves are thought to be the cities that will experience the garbage crisis first.
1. Songpa-gu
No. 1 in waste discharge in Seoul based on volume-rate system
Incinerator x
2. Gwanak-gu
There are the most single-person households and there is a lot of delivery food, so the proportion of recycling and waste is high. Residential areas are crowded. There is not enough space to pile up trash. There is a risk that hygiene issues may arise first.
3. Seocho-gu
Incinerator x.
Currently, 1,000 tons of waste is piling up every day, leaving behind incineration waste in Seoul.
We are sending it to private incineration companies, but most of them have an operation rate close to 100%. Landfill is also limited. It is said that at most it can handle about 300 tons.
Even if you think really optimistically, 500 tons of waste is piling up every day without being processed.
Local governments are also using their administrative power to refuse or increase waste disposal costs. (Then, Cheongju City was sued and lost, but the cost of waste disposal is rising rapidly.)
Starting in March, when the weather gets warmer, you will start to feel it through your nose.
Summary: Songpa-gu, Gwanak-gu, Seocho-gu garbage crisis will begin soon
Tokyo trash crisis likely to be repeated in Seoul
