Splitting of heterogeneous waste by sensor-based sorting as a basis for optimized material-specific waste-routing

In the presented work material-specific sensor-based sorting was evaluated for its technical application on heterogeneous wastes on a pilot and a large scale, in order to optimize the routing options of waste streams in an economically attractive way.

Two sorting steps were conducted with the aim to process the specific waste streams and to generate value-added output streams. The first sorting step should allow for quality improvements (chlorine, heavy metal content) in the present waste streams in order to increase available options for industrial (co-)incineration. The second one aimed at increasing the biogenic carbon content, as the portion of biogenic CO2 emissions gains in importance whenever waste is being co-incinerated in facilities subject to the EU emission trading scheme on CO2. The trials indicated that the application of sensor-based sorting for the splitting of the heterogeneous waste streams looked at is technically feasible as well as economically attractive.

Die innerstaatliche Umsetzung des Pariser Klimaschutzübereinkommens - ein Rechtsvergleich
© Lexxion Verlagsgesellschaft mbH (8/2024)
Like all public international law treaties, the Paris Climate Accords rely on national law for their implementation. The success of the agreement therefore depends, to a large extent, on the stepstaken or not taken by national governments and legislators as well as on the instruments and mechanisms chosen for this task. Against this background, the present article compares different approaches to the implementation of the Paris Agreement, using court decisions as a means to assess their (legal) effectiveness.
