Abstract (en)

It has been estimated that in Europe 3 million tones of thermal insulation waste in total are generated every year. This equals to 3,6 tones per capita in Western Europe, 4,5 tones per capita in Central Europe and 6,5 tones per capita in Eastern Europe. These figures for the total waste in groups of countries are a highly aggregated indicator that can hide the waste generation profile of each country. Manufacturing industry, construction and demolition activities, mining and quarrying are the main economic sectors contributing to total waste in Europe. Several countries may not generate sufficient quantities of certain wastes for treating them in an economically efficient way. [...].
