Abstract

Public Private Partnership (PPP) in municipal solid waste management was examined by reviewing the background and current situations of advanced schemes in Europe and the strategies being undertaken by some major waste management companies there. Although the PFI scheme is already under way to some extent in Japan, in European countries such as the UK, (the first country to adopt the concept), PPP is believed to contribute to cost reduction in performance and to provision of better public services. In the UK, even waste management planning, which has up until now been a public sector role, is going to be entrusted to the private sector and will include raising awareness among residents. In order for PPP to function effectively, there is a strong need for reliable waste management companies having ample experience and resources to support the various public services. An ideal figure of PPP in Japan is described based on advanced practices in some European countries where waste management businesses are sustainable even when waste generation decreased due to the 3 R policy.
