Mechanical-biological Treatment of Waste in Austria: Current Developments© Wasteconsult International (5/2007)
The current development in the field of the mechanical-biological treatment of municipal and industrial wastes in Austria is a clear indication of the rising importance of this form of waste treatment. In the beginning of the year 2007, 17 mechanical-biological treatment plants were in operation with a treatment capacity of approximately 686,500 tons.

Due to the implementation of the Austrian landfill ordinance – since the 1st of January 2004 only pretreated waste can be landfilled – the amount of waste fuels has strongly increased.
Formation and control of dioxins© IWWG International Waste Working Group (11/2006)
During municipal solid waste (MSW) incineration, products of incomplete combustion (PICs), such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and polychlorinated dibenzofurans (PCDFs), are unintentionally formed, primarily in the post-combustion zone.
Regenerative thermal oxidizers based on the pebble-heater technology© OTH Amberg-Weiden (6/2000)
Regenerative thermal oxidizers are used for cleaning the exhaust gas of different industrial furnaces. They are more and more demanded as the environmental regulations become more strict. On the other hand, there is a steady effort to develop systems with lower investment and especially operational costs.
