Regenerative Energie
After a short introduction into the past of waste management the main technologies of waste combustion, emission control and residue treatment are described. The environmental compatibility in terms of air emission and residue management as well as the potential of waste incineration in the energy market is discussed. Special attention is turned to the importance of the biogenic energy fraction in waste and its positive effects concerning GHG emissions.
The EU Waste Framework Directive of 1975 (European Council, 1975) defines already a waste management strategy which bases on waste reduction, reuse and recycling. As a consequence the Landfill Directive (European Council, 1999) demands a significant reduction of the direct disposal of reactive or biodegradable waste on landfills. Several countries, e.g. Germany, have meanwhile enacted a total ban of such landfilling. This directive has changed respectively is going to change in many countries the structure of waste management systems. Waste inertisation processes are an important prerequisite to fulfil the requirements of the Landfill directive. In Europe the today preferred inertisation process is the incineration of waste on the grate. This paper will give a short overview of the development of waste incineration and outline its current importance for the waste as well as for the energy sector. An important aspect will be the environmental compatibility of the process emissions and their residues.

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.
