- Disposable diapers represent 2-15% of total municipal European waste
- Organic compounds such as fluffy pulp and excreta are included
Life cycle thinking is utilizing the maximum potential of a producτ during its life cycle through techniques like reuse and recovery, considering the environmental, economic and social impact of resource gathering, production and disposal practices An alternative approach for the valorization of both waste streams is the anaerobic digestion process.
