The EU Landfill Directive seeks to reduce greenhouse gas missions by requiring Member States to reduce amounts of biodegradable wastes being landfilled.
There is extensive evidence that MBT processes can be successful in achieving this, by significantly reducing overall emissions of carbon in gases and leachates, when residues are landfilled. This is important, since lack of markets is likely to mean that most such MBT residues are disposed of by this route. However, it has not yet been demonstrated whether landfills containing MBT wastes will exhibit reduced aftercare periods, when compared with normal MSW landfills. It is likely that waste components responsible for longer-term emissions of contaminants such as ammoniacal-N and "hard" COD, will not be readily-degraded during normal MBT processes. This paper discusses the issues involved, and illustrates these with results from a recent research study undertaken on behalf of the UK Environment Agency.

Transformatives Klimarecht: Raum, Zeit, Gesellschaft

This article contends that climate law should be conceived as inherently transformative in a double sense. The law not only guides the necessary transformation of economy and society, but is itself undergoing transformation.
