ECN Position Paper – Circular Economy Act

While the Circular Economy Act is being drawn up, ECN has prepared 11 key policy recommendations aimed at improving the circularity of biowaste management in Europe.

Our policy recommendations include:

  • Supporting the implementation of an efficient separate collection of municipal and non-municipal bio-waste.
  • Introducing a mandatory End-of-Waste status for compost and digestate at EU level.
  • Incentivising the use of compost and digestate on soils.
  • Considering sludges from the food processing industry as biowaste.
