Waste from extractive operations (i.e. waste from extraction and processing of mineral resources) is one of the largest waste streams in the EU. It involves materials that must be removed to gain access to the mineral resource, such as topsoil, overburden and waste rock, as well as tailings remaining after minerals have been largely extracted from the ore.
The Regulation of Mining and Mining Waste in the European Union Yvonne Scannell* Abstract North America (70.9) and Europe and Eurasia (142.2) had 213.1 thousand million barrels of proven oil reserves, while South and Central America (132.2), Asia and the Pacific
In the EU-27, 812 million tonnes of waste excluding major mineral waste were generated in 2018, equivalent to 35 % of the total waste generated. When expressed in relation to population size, the EU-27 generated, on average, 1.8 tonnes per inhabitant of waste

represents the first overview of the current situation in Europe as regards mining waste and presents the current regulatory and management measures specific to each country. The survey involved two approaches: • a questionnaire related to the quantities of existing waste, associated with the
Landfilled waste represents an enormous loss of resources in the form of both materials and energy and so should be limited as far as possible. At EU-level, the landfilling of waste has been continuously reduced in recent years and amounted to 179 million tonnes or 24 % of domestically generated waste in 2016. When related to population, 350 kg per inhabitant of waste excluding major mineral wastes
There are more than half a million landfills around Europe, according to estimates by Eurelco, a landfill mining consortium. Inside Remo, there are more than 18 million tonnes of waste.
Waste incineration has also grown steadily in the reference period, though not as much as recycling and composting. Since 1995, the amount of municipal waste incinerated in the EU has risen by 29 million tonnes or 101 % and accounted for 58 million tonnes in 2018.
According to the Central Statistical Office (2002), the total amount of mining waste (including tailings from preparation plants) generated in 2000 in Poland was as high as 73.6 million tons (Mt), i.e. 59.5% of the total waste generated in the country. Annual generation of hard coal mining waste in 2001 accounted for 38.4 Mt and waste from ore mining, almost entirely tailings, accounted for 29.9 Mt. Current percentage
Nov 29, 2018· Note: The data were extracted on 12 October 2018. The 2016 data are Eurostat estimates. The total amount of waste generated in the EU, excluding major mineral wastes, increased by 5.1 % between 2010 and 2016 (Figure 1).The total amount of waste, excluding major mineral wastes, increased by 6.9 % over the same period when Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Turkey — the four
To the substantial amount of waste generated -approx. 2.515 million tonnes in Europe in 2017- must be added its danger and the long residence time in the environment. The ecological consequences of waste are not limited to the depletion or reduction of natural resources, but the production of alterations in the functioning of the biosphere itself.

Plastic waste management In 2018, the volume of plastic waste collected in the EU totaled 29.1 million metric tons. Of this amount, just 9.4 million metric tons was recycled, whilst 7.2 million
million tons of waste glass in 2004. •In USA, 11.5 million tons of waste glass generated in 2010 with a recycling rate of 27% only. (i.e. 8.4 million tons sent to landfills). •In Europe there was 4.1 million tons of waste glass in 2008 with a recycling rate of 60%.
Copper recycling and waste management have become an important part of the supply chain, keeping resources local, creating local jobs, saving on landfill site space and incentivising the recycling of other materials. In 2014, 2.1 million tons of copper were reused in Europe, coming from end-of-life products and directly-recycled factory
The global environmental problems we face today are largely the result of human overexploitation of natural resources, including (fossil) fuels, minerals, water, land and biodiversity. It has become increasingly clear that Europe's prevailing model of economic development — based on high resource use, waste generation and pollution — cannot be sustained in the long term. Today, the
