RIVM rapport:Voor de uitvoering van het Convenant Verpakkingen is onderzoek naar de samenstelling van de inhoud van glasbakken verricht. Daartoe is begin 1995 de fysische samenstelling van gescheiden ingezameld glas afkomstig van 10 locaties onderzocht. De aandacht was gericht op het aandeel (eenmalig) verpakkingsglas, de kleursamenstelling en de verontreiniging. Het percentage verpakkingsglas is vastgesteld op gemiddeld 97%. Het percentage wit, groen en bruin glas bedraagt repectievelijk 45,3%, 43,3% en 10,1% van de totale monsterhoeveelheid. Het gemiddelde percentage aangetroffen restmateriaal (niet-glas), wat als verontreiniging wordt beschouwd, bedraagt 1,3%. De maximale hoeveelheid verontreiniging gemeten in een monster is 2,7%. De kleurzuiverheid van op kleur gescheiden ingezameld glas is voor wit glas op 95,5% vastgesteld, voor groen glas op 95,6% en voor bruin glas op 71%. Door het RIVM is berekend dat 74% van de totale hoeveelheid in huishoudens gebruikt eenmalig verpakkingsglas gescheiden is ingezameld. Hiervan is 39% op kleur gescheiden ingezameld., This report presents the results of composition analyses of sorted glass from community glass containers. Analyses took place in early 1995 in the framework of activities defined in the Packaging Covenant, an agreement between the Dutch Government and the packaging industry to reduce the amount of packaging waste. The results will be used, for instance, to evaluate and examine the effects of the Covenant during the year 1994. Glass samples from 10 sites were analyzed for the amount of used packaging glass, colour composition and the presence of impurities (non-glass). Sorting analyses showed the average amount of glass packaging to be 97% of the total sample. Colourless glass is found in 45.3%, green glass in 43.3% and brown glass in 10.1% of the total sample. The presence of impurities, defined as non-glass, is quantified at 1.3% of the total sample. Separately collected used packaging glass was calcultated at 74% of the total amount of used packaging glass. Of this, 39% of the glass collected had been separated by colour.

RIVM rapport:The Section of Measuring of the Laboratory of Waste Materials and Emissions analyses the composition of domestic waste in the Netherlands. This report presents the results of 1993. The composition of domestic waste varies, due to socio-economic and regional differences. Therefore eleven districts in the Netherland were sampled. The main components of domestic waste, amongst others: Vegetable, Fruit and Garden waste and indefined particles (39,8%); Paper/Cardboard (27,1%) ; Plastics (8,9%) ; Glass (4,2%) Ferrous (4,1%).

RIVM rapport:Abstract niet beschikbaar, This report presents the results of sorting analyses with residual household waste, collected in the municipalities of Hoorn, Westerkoggenland and Drechterland, which co-operate in the area of West-Frisian (samenwerkingsorgaan West-Friesland). Since september 1992 a bringsystem of plastic bottles has been introduced. At the same time collection of glass, separated on colour, has been started. The sorting analyses form part of a programme called 'waste separation of dry components (ADC-Afvalscheiding Droge Componenten)', initiated by the Ministry of VROM. In this programme several pilot projects will be evaluated in order to develop a uniform system of separate waste collection.

RIVM rapport:Abstract niet beschikbaar, This report presents the results of sorting analyses with household waste, collected after separate collection at source in the municipality of Hoogeveen. This pilot project forms part of a project, called "Afvalscheiding droge componenten" (waste separation of dry components), in which several Dutch pilot projects, concerning the recycling of household waste, are evaluated. In a pilot district in Hoogeveen, household waste is collected in six fractions: - putrescibles (garden-, fruit- and vegetable waste: "GFT"). - paper/cardboard - glass - drink-packaging (laminated cardboard) - plastic packaging - a residual fraction. Three samples of each fraction have been analysed on composition, purity and response. In this study the results have been compared with sorting analyses on (integral) collected household waste of a referential district in Hoogeveen. Besides a comparison is made with sorting analyses of a pilot project, which took place in a pilot district in the munipality of Breda.

RIVM rapport:Abstract niet beschikbaar, This report presents data of sorted components of domestic waste in average weight percentages for the year 1991. The quality of domestic waste depends on a variety of factors: standards and habits of living, degree of industrialization, size of the region or community, seasonal variations. Taking these factors into account specific districts have been selected in the following municipalities: - Arnhem (one-family houses, apartment buildings) - Amsterdam (old district) - Amsterdam (new district) - Overasselt (situated in a rural area in the vicinity of the city of Nijmegen).

RIVM rapport:This report presents the results of sorting analyses of used glass derived from communal glass containers. Analyses took place in February 1993 in the framework of activities defined in an agreement between the Dutch Government and the packing industry, the so called 'Convenant Verpakkingen'. Glass samples from 11 sites were analysed for the origine of used packings (pots or bottles), color and the presence of impurities (non-glass). Sorting analyses proved that the average amount of glass originated from bottles is 72.9% and from pots 23.9% of the total sample. Colorness glass is found 47% of the total sample. The presence of impurities, defined as non-glass, is quantified 1.3% of the total sample.

RIVM rapport:Abstract niet beschikbaar, This interim report presents the results of sorting analyses with household waste, collected after separate collection at source in the municipality of Lemsterland. The sorting analyses, which took place october 1992, form part of a monitoring programme of a pilot project, called 'de dubbele duobak' (two dual-chamber bins). 'Lemsterland' is one of the Dutch pilot projects, which will be evaluated in the programme 'ADC-Afvalscheiding Droge Componenten' (waste separation of dry components). This programme is initiated by the Ministry of VROM in order to develop a uniform system of separate waste collection. Also Lemsterland is mentioned in the Packaging Convention, an agreement between the Government and packaging industry to reduce the amount of packaging waste. The main purpose of this pilot project in Lemsterland is to achieve an extended reduction of the amount of household waste by a system of separate collection at source. In this system, each household is provided with two dual-chamber wheeled bins. The first bin contains a fraction of garden, fruit and vegetable waste ('GFT') and a residual fraction ; the other bin contains a paper/cardboard fraction and a mixture ('PMD') of plastics/metals/drinks- packaging (laminated cardboard). These four collected fractions were analysed on the composition, purity and response.

RIVM rapport:Abstract niet beschikbaar, This report presents the results of sorting analyses with household waste, collected after separate collection at source in the municipality of Breda and form part of a pilot project, called "Model Breda". The main purpose of this project is to achieve a more extended reduction of the amount of household (packaging) waste by separate collection at source, as mentioned in the Packaging Convention, an agreement between the Government and the packaging industry. In two pilot districts of Breda (Linie-Doornbos and Boeimeer, 3,700 households) household waste is collected in four different fractions: a putrescible fraction (garden-, fruit- and vegetable waste: "GFT"). - a paper/cardboard-fraction - a packaging fraction of plastics, metals and drink-packaging (laminated cardboard) - a residual fraction. Of each fraction one sample was taken in low-rise buildings and the other sample in high-rise buildings. These eight fractions were analysed on the composition, purity and response.
