DBU

This project, which ran from February 2017 to October 2019, was funded by the German Federal Environmental Foundation (DBU). How can a sustainable approach to waste management be defined and which indicators can be applied across all stages of the value chain? Using three material flows as examples, we have developed and tested sustainability ideas in order to achieve an improvement in recycling or reuse for these material flows compared to the current situation, or to clarify which legal, economic or other obstacles stand in the way of an improvement. Project partners were N³ Nachhaltigkeitsberatung Dr. Friege & Partner (Voerde) and BASIKNET Gesellschaft für Arbeitsschutz mbH (Berlin).
