Incineration• Aim: obliteration of waste• Waste recovery at a modest
level• Expensive long-term
solutions
Circular economy • Closed cycle • Reuse and remanufacture • Repair• From consumption to utilization• New technologies and service
models
Recycling• Sorting at the source • Priority order/waste hierarchy • Producer liability • Gradual elimination of landfills
Landfills• Preventing the hygienic

Prevention
Preparing for re-use
Recycling
Other recovery
Disposal
Using less material in design and manufacture.Keeping products for longer, re-use.Using less hazardous material.
Checking, cleaning, repairing, refurbishing whole items or spare parts.
Turning waste into a new substance or product. Includes composting.
Including anaerobic digestion, incineration with energy recovery, gasification and pyrolysis which produce energy and materials from waste; some backfilling operations.
Landfill and incineration without energy recovery.

PRODUCER RESPONSIBILITY PROVIDES A GOOD FOUNDATION FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF CIRCULAR ECONOMY
In product design, reuse throughout the product’s life cycle must be taken into account Renting and leasing models encourage the design of more durable products Voluntary producers responsibility schemes are growingShift from regulations towards consumer driven demand

CONCLUSIONS
© Lassila & Tikanoja Oyj
Businesses are capable of changing their operations towards sustainable economy, actually the transition to circular economy is already underway
Circular economy is a positive opportunity for Europe- We can ensure self-sufficiency in energy and raw-materials - Technology and service solutions are a major employment and investment opportunity
Circular economy will be achieved in a society which recycles- Regulation is needed to ensure resource-efficiency on all levels (recycling targets, ecodesign,
support and reinforcement of recycled raw-material markets)
To achieve effective recovery of recycled raw-materials we need to strengthen the producer’s role in the value chain–and to diminish that of the state.
Market needs a stable and predictable operating environment (regulation) and a well-functioning marketplace based on market economy and consumers’ freedom to choose.
