We are happy to announce that ECN released its Data Report for 2022. The new ECN data report verifies that less than 40 million tonnes of municipal bio-waste are separately collected and processed into high-quality compost and digestate in Europe. This means that only 17% of municipal solid waste is organically recycled through composting and anaerobic digestion. For reaching the overall recycling target of municipal waste of 65% by 2035, there is a need to set further incentives to improve the separate collection and the biological management of bio-waste at the European level.
