German legislation

▪ Closed Cycle Management Act

▪ 5-step waste hierarchy:

1. Prevention of waste

2. Preparing for re-use

3. Recycling

4. Other recovery, e.g. energy recovery

5. Disposal

▪ By 2015: Separate collection (biowaste, metals,

plastics, paper, glass)

▪ By 2020: Quotas for recycling (e.g. 65 %

recycling of MSW)

▪ Various ordinances (landfilling, biowaste, batteries, packaging, etc.)

EU recycling targets (CEP):

▪ 60% of municipal waste by

2030

▪ 75% of packaging waste by

2030

▪ reduce landfill to max. 10% of

all waste by 2035

Innovative, forward-thinking waste management

▪ Separate collection and recycling:

4-bin-system for all households:

bio, paper, packaging / plastics, residuals

▪ Bring system for various fractions:

13 receipt stations, 1,000 public sites containers,

marketing structure for valuable materials

▪ Reuse:

3 secondhand shops „Stilbruch“

(furniture, books, cloths, e-devices, …)

▪ Big industrial treatment plants:

▪ Incineration, fermentation, sorting, …

17.05.2018 IFAT 2018

▪ Collection per year:

✓720,000 t in total from 900,000 households

✓460,000 t residuals

✓ 65,000 t biowaste

✓ 60,000 t paper / carboard

✓ 16,000 t bulky

✓ 6,000 t recyclables

✓ 6,000 t leaves

▪ Bring system collection per year:

✓ 20,000 t used paper

✓100,000 t receipt stations, incl. 2,500 t hazardous waste

Fee structure:

▪ Basic fee + bin size fee + service / transport fee

▪ 4-bin system:

✓ residuals from households

✓ biowaste

✓ paper, no extra fee

✓ packaging and plastics, no extra fee

Incineration Incineration process and plant technology

are adapted to input material e.g. waste

incineration, wood incineration,

RDF incineration, co-incineration or pellet

incineration

FermentationProcesses and plant technology are

adapted to input material e.g. wet

fermentation for kitchen / food waste or dry

fermentation for “normal” biowaste

Other technologies in progresse.g. gasification of leafs or wood

4. Waste treatment and recovery

▪ Long-term guarantee of safe disposal and contribution to energy transition in Hamburg

▪ Waste treatment (thermal / biological) in large plants with climate-friendly energy

production and use of residual materials

5. Main challenges of waste management

▪ High waste volume despite separation successes (i.e. packaging waste)

▪ Throw-away society, take-away society

▪ Waste is often no priority, not for urban planners, not for architects, not for

citizens, not for producers

▪ Continued use of incinerator bottom

ashes after incineration (20%)

▪ Plastic recycling
