Das Projekt „Risikostoffe im Boden in Beziehung zur Umwelt – grenzüberschreitende Grundlagen des Bodenschutzes (Bayern – Tschechien)“ schließt sich auf das ähnliche Bayerische Projekt an. Es liegen drei Punkte in diesem Projekt vor, die unterschiedlich sind: Bodenklassifikation, Beschreibung der Bodenhorizonte und der Bodentextur. Durch intensive Verhandlungen wurden diese Probleme jedoch beseitigt.

Drivers for biodegradable/compostable plastics & role of composting in waste management & sustainable agriculture
© European Compost Network ECN e.V. (9/2000)
Sustainability, industrial ecology, ecoefficiency, and green chemistry are the new principles that are guiding the development of the next generation of plastic and other products and processes. Thus, new products have to be designed and engineered from “conception to reincarnation” incorporating a holistic “life cycle thinking approach”.
