60. Incineration rates per material fractions
City Last edited Monday 21 June 2021, 16:51 UTC Completed
Description

Mass percentage of waste which incinerated for each material fraction as defined by local waste management companies.

Methodology

Per fraction: Mass of materials incinerated divided by total amount of waste. Data from waste management companies.

The information above is specific to Porto's evaluation plan. For general information on this indicator, please refer to its entry in the list of indicators. What follows below is what has been filled out by the city.
Rationale

The implementation of CityLoops project, will contribute to the prevention of food waste production (DA2, DA3, DA5) and to increase the percentage of bio-waste treated locally or collected (DA1, DA2) that will be organically treated to produce compost that will be return to soil, closing the loop. This will contribute to the reduction of the WtE rate of bio-waste produced at Porto City (from 69,6% to 65,7% in 2019).

Baseline data / definition

The baseline will consider the estimation for 2019 of bio-waste going to LIPOR WtE Plant, at city level.

Data sources / relevant databases

The data needed will be provided by LIPOR.
