Figure 5. Energy recovery by waste incineration (International Solid Waste Association, 2002; Swedish
Association of Waste Management, 2000)
Table 1 shows different waste treatment methods in the European countries. The statistics
are not exhaustive because not all data is available. Nonetheless, some comments can be
made. Regarding the correlation between high amount of DH and energy recovery, this can
