Abstract

Since 1994, Danish waste treatment plants have been obliged to report to the Danish EPA the annual amounts of waste treated. Applying these data, we analyse the development, link amounts of waste to economic and demographic variables, and present a model for the generation and treatment of waste in Denmark. Using the model and official projections of the economic development, a baseline projection for the generation and treatment of waste is presented.
