Methodological information
1. Data for 2023 are provisional.
2. Biodegradable waste mainly includes organic waste (e.g. kitchen waste).
3. The difference observed between the total amount of waste generated and the total amount of waste treated is mainly due to leaks and other water losses from the various processes after the waste enters the treatment plants. These liquids are managed within the plants, e.g. biological treatment. These quantities are excluded from the scope of municipal solid waste data reporting. Also, collected waste is stored, untreated, for future treatment.
4. From 2019 onwards, the quantities of wood used for recycling also include quantities of repaired wooden pallets for reuse.
5. The quantities of electrical and electronic equipment waste also include quantities prepared for reuse.
6. The data on per capita waste generation for the period 2012-2021 has been revised, taking into account the updated data from the 2021 population census.
