He added that the Polish company Control Process S.A. is building the plant. It has already created a number of similar enterprises, in particular in Olsztyn, Poland, which is as similar as possible to Lviv.

Sadovyi emphasized that a food and garden waste composting station also operates in Lviv. In addition, the reclamation of the Hrybovytsky landfill is 91% complete, and work is ongoing
