Edited by the Association in february 2008, the Handbook
has the economic support of the Agency of Waste of Catalonia and the Area of Environment of the Regional Government of Barcelona.

The Handbook has as a goal to introduce the characteristics and the results of this system of collection, in order to promote its adoption and suitable implantation on the part of one senior number of towns. In the book, besides setting forth which it is its situation in Catalonia, the several issues are shown that it is necessary to take into account when implanting a door to door selective waste collection.

The handbook approaches a detailed explanation of the practical aspects which it is necessary to consider in its application: necessary materials, communicative peculiarities, fiscal possibilities, particularities that have to be considered, communication and follow-up necessary, in different urbanistic contexts etc. Also the results that can be attained in environmental issues, as well as its economic implications, among other aspects.
