SODVWLFV ZDVWH The approach of working out the scenarios is discussed in chapter of the report The following steps were taken: Appendix A1 gives the waste management situation for plastics waste by EU member state in the base year 1995, based on APME (1997) Appendix A2 (particularly table A2.2) recalculates for each waste stream, and for each EU member state, the percentage mechanical recycling, energy recovery, incineration (without energy recovery), landfill and chemical recycling in 1995, on the basis of Appendix A1 (Table A1.2) Appendix A3.1 gives the total plastics waste supply for 2000 by EU member state, using the 1995 data given in Appendix A1 and the waste growth factors per plastic waste category calculated in chapter 5, Table 5.5 Appendix A3.3 gives our estimates for feasible mechanical recycling per waste category per member state, and the legal recycling target per waste stream per member state Further explanation about the assumptions per waste stream is given in chapter The difference is a percentage of that waste potentially available for chemical recycling The percentages in Appendix A3.3 are multiplied by the waste volumes in Appendix 3.1, giving a theoretical amount of mixed plastics waste for chemical recyling in Appendix 3.2 Appendices A4 and A5 repeat this exercise for 2005 and 2010 Appendix A6 provides an extra scenario in 2010 for packaging waste and automotive waste, assuming that plastics will have to meet the same (high) recycling targets as other materials (see chapter 5) For packaging waste, it was assumed that half of the recycling target would be met by mechanical recycling The main text (chapter 5, tables 5.2-5.5 and chapter 6, table 6.3) condenses the results of the former Appendices They give the total MPW supply per category in the target years, the PVC waste supply (see Appendix B) and the theoretical percentage PVC per waste category, as well as the theoretical amount of MPW available in the EU for chemical recycling per waste category All data are in kton pure resin, unless stated otherwise 95 UhiyrÃ6 )ÃQr ÃyhvpÃhrÃtrr hvÃiÃp ÃhqÃrqrÃrp Ãvà (($ÃvÃxÃÃ6QH@à ((& Agriculture Building Housh Other Packaging
