Disposal management and environmental protection
Tips for correct waste separation
Waste separation is a science in itself. The administration portal therefore provides helpful tips on correct waste separation and waste avoidance.
Environmental information from A-Z
The Waste Directive and other environmental information can also be found in the Administration portal.
Disposal management and environmental protection
In addition to managing the university's waste volume of household-like commercial waste, the area of waste disposal and environmental protection also includes water and emission protection, the implementation of the Ordinance on Hazardous Substances in some areas of the department, and participation in the sustainable development of the university. The department is located within the commercial building management of Department 4.
Participation for a sustainable development of the university
A small part of the activities falls under the implementation of the COPERNICUS University Charter for Sustainable Development. For example, concepts for green roofs on university buildings were co-developed and implemented together with the Department of Land and Building Planning of Department 4 on buildings A05, A14a, the entrance area of W0, and buildings W31 and W33. Student projects are happily supported by the team as well.
Together with students of the master prgram Sustainability Economics and Management, the BallotBin project could be implemented which offers a solution to reduce the problem of cigarette butts lying around in a creative way. The project has been running since March 2019, is still active and continues to be supported by the University's Facilities Management.
As the exchange of information, knowledge and experience is important for the further development of the university in the context of sustainability, the team is involved in the working group Communication & Participation of the Sustainability Network HochNiNa of Universities in Lower Saxony as well as in the Climate-neutral university working group.
