Other types of waste

One of the implementing regulations regarding the Waste Act is the so-called Waste Catalogue and it contains hundreds of types of waste generated by human activity. Waste is divided into 20 groups and municipal waste is listed in Group 20 in accordance with such activity. Each waste type has its own six-digit catalogue number – waste is recorded under these numbers. Here are other waste examples that are not generated either in households or by municipality operation. Significant waste groups are wastes from production, agriculture, forestry, fishing, sewage networks and wastewater treatment plants, including sludge, construction and demolition waste, waste from mining, electricity, gas and heat production, transport and storage or waste from health care.
