Annex III METHODOLOGY FOR CALCULATING RECYCLED METALS SEPARATED AFTER INCINERATION OF MUNICIPAL WASTE REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 5(2)F1

United Kingdom Repealed

1. 1The following definitions shall apply in relation to the formulas set out in this Annex:
2. 2Following the separation of metal concentrate from raw incineration bottom ash, the total mass of metals in incineration bottom ash in a given year shall be calculated by applying the following formula:
3. 3Division 3
4. 4The concentration of metals in metal concentrates shall be calculated by using data collected by regular surveys from facilities that treat metal concentrates and deliver their output to facilities producing metal products. Distinction shall be made between ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals and stainless steel. The following formula shall be applied in order to calculate the concentration of metals in metal concentrates:
5. 5Where municipal waste is incinerated together with other waste, the concentration of metals in the incinerated waste from various sources shall be determined through a sampling survey of the waste that enters the incineration operation. This survey shall be carried out at least every five years and whenever there are reasons to expect that the composition of the waste has significantly changed. The mass of metals originating from municipal waste shall be calculated by applying the following formula:
6. 6By way of derogation from point 5, where the share of municipal waste in all incinerated waste is above 75 %, the mass of metals originating from municipal waste may be calculated by applying the following formula:
