摘要：The paper focuses on the statutory regulation and ways of im-proving secondary materials management, their use as secondary raw ma-terials for the manufacture of goods, provision of works, services, as well as power generation. It is shown that due to the economic factor, only read-ily available and valuable waste, particularly, ferrous and non-ferrous met-al scrap and waste, high-grade paper, pure textiles, plastic and wood waste, glass scrap, some mineral waste from the electric power, metal, chemical industries, construction and demolition of buildings, structures, construc-tion materials industry are injected back into the economy. Obviously, bet-ter legal, economic, organizational and technical aspects of recycling will help tackle the fundamental environmental challenges currently faced by the Russian Federation, as well as contribute to its policy geared towards conservation of strategic natural resources and long-term sustainable eco-nomic development.
