Modeling waste management systems requires quantification of important emissions from the waste treatment alternatives included in the assessment. For most treatment technologies (e.g. waste incineration and mechanical-biological treatment), emissions are depending on the composition of the waste input. Without appropriate composition data, misleading conclusions may arise from the assessment thereby facilitating unjustified decisions. This is just one example of the use of waste chemical composition, but many other applications exist and the lack of welldocumented data concerning solid waste fractions is evident as reported in e.g. /Burnley S.J. (2007)/. (Session A5: Waste characterisation)
Indirect measurements of waste using a waste incinerator is a scientifically accepted method for waste analysis but is only used occasionally because of the expenses implied in performing the tests. Reduced costs and more reliable results have been the motivation for developing a second generation of the indirect waste analysis. In an series of tests waste fractions has been incinerated together with a base waste. The base waste consisted of a mixture of household waste and small combustible waste and the chemical composition was measured in between the tests with added waste fractions. Automatic sampling of bottom ashes and sampling of ash different places in the flue gas stream ensures accurate mass and substance balances with a minimum of work implied.

Rechtliche und praktische Unsicherheiten bei der Durchführung des europäischen Klimaanpassungsrechts durch das Bundes- Klimaanpassungsgesetz (KAnG)

In the context of the European Climate Law (EU) 2021/1119), the Governance Regulation (EU) 2018/1999 and the Nature Restoration Regulation (EU) 2024/1991, the KAnG came into force on July 1, 2024.
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.
