An assessment of MBT across Europe
Perugia, 10 May 2006
2- Solid Waste Audits
European Environmental Engineers at a glance:
• Independant Engineers & Consultants
• ...focussing on solid waste:
- Waste Management Concepts
- Design & Optimization of Waste Treatment Plants
- Consulting & Knowledge Transfer

Long tradition with MB technologies
1. Generation of plants (70ies to mid 80ies):Main aim: Recovery (compost, CDR)
2. Generation of plants (since 1995):Main aim: Volume reduction, landfilling properties
´CDR´ (refuse derived fuel) = standardized product
MB technology gets also exported

landfill ban for untreated MSW since 01/06/2005
currently ~ 45 MBT plants

MBT mainly understood ´product oriented´
anaerobic systems withgrowing importance
RDF: No importance yet
´Disposal requirements´:low (no ?) importance
Iberian Peninsula
11
France & Benelux
Netherlands:
Many impulses for MBT technologies / processing steps
MBT as front-end treatment of incineration
ban to dispose of untreated MSW
France:
~ 70 MSW “compost plants“
no disposal requirements
Anaerobic digestion !
RDF / CDR: No importance
12
Northern Europe
Sweden, Norway,Finland:
Low degree of MBTpartly MT only (RDF)
Denmark:
100 % incinerationEngland:
EC Directive 1999/31= driving force for a ´boom´ in solid waste management
Counties are responsible to fulfil targets !
Particular technical requirements due to hygiene (mad cow disease)
13
Baltic countries:
no activities MBT
Poland:
long tradition with MSW composting
Eastern Europe
Czech Republic, Slovakia:
„Waste substitutes coal“
Hungary:
first MBT plant in 2004

Perspectives...
17
The status of MBT-technologies in the different European countries is generally defined by:
The respective historic development of the treatment technology (MSW-)composting (to a much lower extent: Anaerobic digestion)
EU-Legislation (´Landfill Directive´)
