DIFFUSION OF KEY CONCEPTS: AUSTRIA CASE STUDY
Hubert Reisinger, Umweltbundesamt, Austria
13.04.2010, draft
General instructions:
The key questions that should be addressed within each MS case study are:
• Have the 8 key concepts set out in the Waste TS (waste hierarchy; life cycle thinking;
waste prevention; producer responsibility; proximity principle; recycling society; using
waste as a resource; and reducing negative environmental impacts by better waste
management) diffused across relevant MS national/federal and regional policies?
• Are there specific gaps where such terms should be considered but are currently absent?
The case studies should attempt to distinguish between terms from legal texts (which are
more likely to be directly transposed into MS documents) and the broader concepts in the
Waste TS which may be interpreted more loosely.
The case studies when reviewed as a whole should answer the question:
• Are the terms conceived and used consistently across the MS i.e. in terms of definition
and interpretation?
The key concepts are to be interpreted as outlined below:
1. Waste hierarchy – The waste hierarchy from the old Waste Framework Directive will be
taken as the basis for research (as the new WFD has not yet had time to be fully
implemented). The project team will however assess and indicate, where possible, where
the hierarchy in the new WFD has already been assimilated.
2. Life cycle thinking – This will be interpreted in a broad sense i.e. the consideration of
impacts throughout a product’s or material’s life cycle. Information on any detailed
approaches adopted will be provided during the analysis, along with a comparison of
their interpretation.
3. Waste prevention – The prevention of waste is defined within the Directive on waste
(2008/98/EC) as “measures taken before a substance, material or product has become
waste, that reduce:
(a) the quantity of waste, including through the re-use of products or the extension of the life
span of products;
(b) the adverse impacts of the generated waste on the environment and human health; or
(c) the content of harmful substances in materials and products.
Therefore within this assessment both the use of the term ‘waste prevention’ and also
requirements to reduce the quantity or harmfulness of waste will be considered. It should,
however, be noted that MS will not yet have transposed directly this definition into law,
therefore instances deemed compatible with this approach will be identified within the

existing legislation.
4. Producer responsibility – This will be considered both in terms of references to the
concept and also referencing to put into action this ideal i.e. placing of requirements
upon producers to take responsibility for their actions.
5. Proximity principle – As for the producer responsibility principle, the project team will
look for direct references to this principle but also incidences where this has been put
into action within legislation.
6. Recycling society – The basis for research will be the definition provided in the TS. It is
however unlikely to appear in this form within legislation (unless in preambles etc). The
project team will therefore aim to look in detail at the context within which recycling
requirements are specified and their nature. As DG ENV recognised at the kick-off
meeting that the concept is ill-defined in the Waste TS, the project team may offer a
critical assessment of the concept’s definition.
7. Using waste as a resource – This will be conceived in its widest sense, considering
measures that see waste as a source of materials and for other needs such as energy
generation. Importantly, the compatibility of these different resource needs will be
considered.
8. Reducing negative environmental impacts by better waste management – This will be
considered in broad terms as any form of impact upon the environment. The different
environmental impacts considered within different measures will be specified.

1. Member State context
This section should include contextual information about the MS: is it centralised or federal; geographical size; population; latest
available data on waste generation, treatment and disposal. It is intended to provide background information and a context for
the case study assessment. (NB Wherever possible statistical information should be obtained from Eurostat to ensure maximum
comparability between the MS case studies.)
Austria is a federal republic with shared responsibilities on waste policy and waste
management planning between the national and the regional levels.
The national level is responsible for
• the policy framework and the specification of waste management principles
• hazardous waste
• transboundary movements of waste
• some non-hazardous waste
The regional level is responsible for
• rest of non-hazardous waste.
On both levels national and regional waste management plans are issued.

2. Key policy documents (national/federal and regional)
This section should include a list (with hyperlinks where available) of key national/federal and regional policy documents related to waste and resource management. For MS where regional waste law is of high
importance, a maximum of three regions should be covered. Legislative texts related to waste and non-legislative waste plans/programmes/guidance should be included. In addition any related dossiers that may
directly impact on waste production i.e. efforts in relation to natural resource consumption, sustainable consumption and production initiatives etc should also be considered.
Please complete the table below with details of the relevant policies.
In order to avoid an overburdening of this fact sheet, from the 9 regional waste management plans only one (that of Styria) was selected.

4. Assessment of diffusion of the 8 key concepts
This section should assess the level of diffusion of the 8 key concepts set out in the Waste TS
(waste hierarchy; life cycle thinking; waste prevention; producer responsibility; proximity
principle; recycling society; using waste as a resource; and reducing negative environmental
impacts by better waste management) into the key policy documents identified. This should
be done by quantifying (i.e. a numerical count) the use of the 8 key concepts in each policy
document, but also by quantifying associated words or concepts.
As well as quantification, the national interpretation of the key concepts should also be
summarised qualitatively where possible, e.g. what is the context for the use of the key
concepts; does the interpretation differ from that in the Waste TS/that of the project team; is
the interpretation consistent throughout the policy documents identified. Ideally this
qualitative summary should be around half a page per key concept.

4.1 - Waste hierarchy [Abfallhierarchie]
4.1.1 – Use of the term
Already the “Leitlinien der Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988 contribute a whole chapter to the
waste hierarchy using the term “Zielhierarchie” (= Hierarchy of objectives) establishing
priorities of waste prevention over waste recycling over disposal.
Also the Austrian Waste Management Act does not use the term “waste hierarchy”, but it
actually defines it as the first principle for achieving the goals of the act:
1. Waste masses and their pollutants’ contents are to be minimized
2. Waste is to be recovered if ecologically viable, technically possible and affordable
3. Waste which cannot be reccovered is to be treated. Solid residues are to be landfilled as
non-reactive residues.
This is one of the corner stones of all waste management regulations in Austria. Any local,
regional and national waste policy builds on that.
E.g. the Federal Waste Management Plan 2006 refers to this hierarchy when further
specifying treatment principles for specific waste streams. The Styrian Regional Waste
Management Plan refers to it in its introduction and its description of the frame conditions.
The whitebook on waste prevention and recycling contains an own chapter on the waste
hierarchy. The latest draft for the revision of the Styrian regional waste management plan
contains the term “waste hierarchy” 5 times.
4.1.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
The order of priority 1. Waste prevention, 2. Recovery (material recycling and energy use), 3.
Disposal of non-reactive waste is defined as the basic principle of waste management in
Austria.
4.1.3 – Origin of the term
How did the use of this term originate at the national level? Was this a consequence of EU
law making/discussions? Did this evolve at the national level? Has this been reconceived in
light of EU policy or law on this issue?
The term “waste hierarchy” was first used in EU documents. While the underlying principle
has been part of Austria waste policy at least since 1988 (under the name “hierarchy of
objectives”), the term “waste hierarchy” is penetrating Austrian documents only in recent
years.

4.1.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
The waste hierarchy is defined as a principle to achieve the goal of minimal environmental
and health impact and not as a goal on its own. Thus the waste hierarchy is somewhat
restricted. It is also restricted by the term “without excessive costs”.
The whitebook on waste prevention and recycling states that all options of waste
management have to be looked at simultaneously and that the optimum combination of
waste prevention, treatment for re-use, recycling, other recovery and landfilling shall be
implemented; the optimal combination from the ecological and the macro economic point
of view should be applied.
4.2 - Life cycle thinking [Lebenszyklusdenken]
4.2.1 – Use of the term
While the term “life cycle thinking” is new for the Austrian waste management policy, this
kind of “thinking” has been part of the Austrian waste management policy at least since
1988. The “Leitlinien der Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988 set as objectives of the Austrian waste
management activities
- the minimisation of the use of raw materials and energy and
- the minimisation of environmental and health impacts
by the appropriate design of all economic processes.
But also the term “life cycle thinking” is about to be taken up. In the Austrian White Book on
Waste Prevention and Recycling from 2007 the term “life cycle thinking” is used 4 times, the
term “lifecycle wide system thinking” 6 times, and the term “life cycle”24 times.
In general life cycle thinking is applied always when designing new waste legislation.
4.2.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
In the Austrian Strategy for Sustainable Development 2002 the term “ökologische
Gesamtbetrachtung” (Ecological consideration of the total system) is introduced: A
sustainable waste management system has to aim at strengthening resource saving by
waste prevention and recovery while considering the total system from the ecological point
of view, has to guarantee an ecologically benign waste treatment, has to capture material
and waste flows and has to strengthen the use of recycling materials and the closing of
material cycles… The quantitative and qualitative problems of the waste management
system can only be solved together with the total economic system (production and
consumption)… In order to sustainably affect the total material economy the total material
flows need to be known and the application of integrated product policy is required.
When defining the objectives of the Austrian waste management system the Austrian waste
management act takes a life-cycle perspective. E.g. it is an objective to prevent
environmental impact and to prevent depletion of natural resources (including raw

materials).
In the White Book on Waste Prevention and Recycling the term “lifecycle wide system
thinking” is used as synonym for “life cycle thinking”. In the Styrian waste management plan
the term “lifecycle and material flow oriented considerations” is used. The federal waste
management plan uses the term “life cycle concept”.
In some occasions the term “Stoffflusswirtschaft” (material flow economy) or
“Kreislaufwirtschaft” (economy of closed material cycles) is used to stress that not only
waste streams but all material streams leading to waste streams and the attached
environmental impacts are to be considered.
4.2.3 – Origin of the term
The term “life cycle thinking” was first used in EU documents. While the underlying principle
has been part of Austria waste policy at least since 1990, the term is penetrating Austrian
documents only in recent years.
4.2.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
The term “lifecycle thinking” is only one of several terms, meaning that waste management
activities should be optimised from the macro-economic point of view, taking into account
the material streams and impacts from cradle to grave or from cradle to cradle. This kind of
thinking has been part of Austrian waste management legislation since at least 1988.
4.3 - Waste prevention [Abfallvermeidung]
4.3.1 – Use of the term
Waste prevention is a corner stone of the Austrian waste management policy. This term is
already used in the Austrian “Leitlinien der Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988 more than 20 times,
and has been applied in many policy documents ever since.
4.3.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
Synonyms comprise “waste preventive activities”, “reduction of waste arisings”,
“minimisation of pollutant contents” etc. More seldom used is the term “waste
minimisation” for the sum of activities to minimise the amount of waste for landfilling
(including all waste recovery and recycling activities).
4.3.3 – Origin of the term
The term seems to be in use in Austria ever since there has been a waste management
policy.

4.3.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
The term “waste prevention” in Austria is used appropriately.
A problem which occurs with waste prevention regards the necessity of the waste
management sector to implement waste prevention in the production, service and
consumption sectors and the limited power to do so. This becomes specifically clear with
qualitative waste prevention, as a limitation of pollutant concentrations frequently is not
subject to waste legislation but subject to chemicals or product legislation. Also the potential
for waste prevention in the production chain of imported products frequently is limited.
4.4 - Producer responsibility [Herstellerverantwortung, Produzentenverantwortung]
4.4.1 – Use of the term
The term “producer responsibility” was already used in the Austrian “Leitlinien der
Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988. It is also used in the Federal Waste Management Plan 2006 (as
well as in the former revisions of the FWMP (2001, 1998)) and in the “Whitebook on Waste
Prevention and Recycling in Austria” from 2007. The term forms the basis for the obligation
to finance the separate collection of packaging waste and take back obligations for batteries,
waste from electric and electronic equipment as well as end-of-life vehicles as stipulated in
different ordinances.
4.4.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
While not meaning exactly the same, as also consumers are concerned, frequently the term
“polluter-pays-principle” is used
4.4.3 – Origin of the term
While the term “producer responsibility” is already used in the Austrian “Leitlinien der
Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988 and the concept is already set down there, the term “extended
producer responsibility” has been coined by Thomas Lindhquist and others within several
studies for the Sewdish government in the early 1990s7.
4.4.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
The term and the concept are used appropriately and sufficiently in Austria.
A specific study on the application of the producer responsibility concept7 (commissioned by
7 Beyer, P. & Kopytziok, N. (2005): Abfallvermeidung und Verwertung durch das Prinzip der
Produzentenverantwortung. ecologic, Umweltbundesamt,

17
the Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry, Environment and Water Management)
recommends to use this instrument not too extensively as it constitutes a strong regulation
of markets. Therefore at the moment no more extension of its use is planned in Austria.
Frequently it is difficult to define the producer who shall take the responsibility, as there are
several producers in the supply chain. It is also difficult to make the actual producer
responsible when he manufactures outside the EU, especially when the supply chain is not
fully known or complex. In such cases the importer must take the responsibility.
4.5 - Proximity principle [Prinzip der Nähe]
4.5.1 – Use of the term
The term proximity principle is used in the Federal Waste Management Plan 2006 and in the
“Whitebook on Waste Prevention and Recycling in Austria” from 2007.
4.5.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
In different documents instead of the term “proximity principle” the principle “avoidance of
long transport distances” is applied.
4.5.3 – Origin of the term
The term origins in the Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of
Hazardous Waste and their Disposal.
4.5.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
The term “proximity principle” is not used frequently in Austrian waste management policy
documents, however, at the appropriate places.
When identifying the waste management solution with the least environmental impact, both
the “proximity principle” and the “autarchy principle” need to be considered.
4.6 - Recycling society [Recyclinggesellschaft]
4.6.1 – Use of the term
http://www.umweltbundesamt.at/fileadmin/site/umweltthemen/abfall/abfallvermeidung/Detailst
udie_Produzentenverantwortung_050901.pdf.
PREPARATORY STUDY FOR THE REVIEW OF THE THEMATIC STRATEGY ON THE PREVENTION AND RECYCLING OF WASTE
IEEP, BIO, ECOLOGIC, UMWELTBUNDESAMT, ARCADIS, VITO
18
Due to its novelty the term recycling society is used infrequently in the Federal Waste
Management Plan 2006 and in the “Whitebook on Waste Prevention and Recycling in
Austria” from 2007.
4.6.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
In German language (in German and Austrian waste management policy language) there are
many different terms meaning more or less the same concept. In policy papers objectives
such as “to recycle the waste as much as possible (without harming the environment)” or
“to close material cycles” frequently occur. The German term “Kreislaufwirtschaft” (closed
loop economy) arguably is the closest relative of the “recycling society”.
4.6.3 – Origin of the term
From the Austrian perspective the term originates in the Thematic Strategy on Waste
Prevention and Recycling.
4.6.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
The synonyms for the recycling society are a corner stone of the Austrian waste
management policy. They are widely and appropriately used.
However, it needs to be stressed, that optimising recycling also means to prevent the
dissipation of pollutants and to prevent the spread of pollutants into products.
A main barrier for higher recycling rates frequently are low prices for primary materials.
4.7 - Using waste as a resource [Die Verwendung von Abfall als Ressource]
4.7.1 – Use of the term
Using waste as a resource or the combined principle of “waste prevention and resource
conservation” have been fundaments of the Austrian waste management policy for years.
The term is actually used for example in the Austrian Sustainable Development Strategy.
Much more used is the objective “resource conservation”.
1.4.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
Frequently used synonyms are:
- The objective to reduce raw material consumption,
- the objective resource conservation
PREPARATORY STUDY FOR THE REVIEW OF THE THEMATIC STRATEGY ON THE PREVENTION AND RECYCLING OF WASTE
IEEP, BIO, ECOLOGIC, UMWELTBUNDESAMT, ARCADIS, VITO
19
4.7.3 – Origin of the term
The synonyms were already used in the Austrian “Leitlinien der Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988.
4.7.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
Austria aims to simultaneously optimise the use of waste as a resource and minimise the
dissipation as well as spread of pollutants into products. The Guideline for Alternative
(Waste) Fuels as well as the prepared amendment of the Waste Incineration Ordinance
prescribe the requirements for wastes to be thermally recovered in order to prevent the
dissemination of pollutants.
4.8 - Reducing negative environmental impacts by better waste management
[Verringerung der Umweltauswirkungen / der Umweltfolgen durch verbesserte
Abfallwirtschaft]
4.8.1 – Use of the term
This term and the underlying principle are the most important objectives of the Austrian
waste management policy. They are listed on top of the Austrian objectives starting with the
Austrian “Leitlinien der Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988 and the Austrian Waste Management
Act from 1990. This principle can be found in virtually all Austrian waste management
documents.
4.8.2 – Use of synonyms and similar terms
While the term Reducing negative environmental impacts by better waste management is
very well established, in addition the term “precautionary principle” is used in order to
underline the importance of several waste management measures.
4.8.3 – Origin of the term
It was first used in Austria in “Leitlinien der Abfallwirtschaft” from 1988.
4.8.4 – Appropriateness of the term’s use
The term and its underlying principle are fully established and appropriately used.
Environmental impacts by the supply chain in foreign countries are difficult to estimate and
influence (if at all). Only by reducing the demand for foreign primary materials and products
(by extending the life time of products in use, by increasing the recycling rate and by urban
mining) these impacts can be reduced.

End-of-life-vehicles, tyres and waste from electric and electronic equipment are exported as
waste and possibly treated with high environmental impacts in foreign countries (there is
substantial danger of eco-dumping by these exports).
5. Conclusions
• In essence the 8 key concepts have been applied in Austria already before its accession
to the EU in 1995 and have been forming the basis for national and regional waste
management planning since 1988. Only the terms “life cycle thinking” and “recycling
society” and the 5-tier waste hierarchy have been defined in recent EU documents and
as such are only found in recent documents such as the Federal Waste Management
Plan of 2006, the “Whitebook on Waste Prevention and Recycling in Austria” from 2007
and the current draft of the Styrian regional waste management plan.
• There are no gaps where the 8 key concepts are absent.
• The terms are used consistently in Austria.
• The key issue is not the use of the terms, but the way the full potential of the key
concepts can be activated. For this matter see the next chapter.
6. Next steps (if any)
The 8 key concepts have been fully established on the level of waste policy setting during
the last 22 years and with respect to their implementation in real life the recovery rate of all
waste could be increased steadily. For example relatively high recycling rates have been
achieved for demolition and construction waste, in spite of low prices for primary
construction materials. In order to exploit the potentials for waste prevention to an even
higher extend and to further develop the recycling society several “long-term” fundamental
barriers need to be addressed:
• The “throw-away-society” with ever shorter product lifes and ever faster change of
fashions
• The rebound effect (the effect that efficiency gains are not used for using less materials
but for purchasing more)
• Environmental impacts connected with and control over ever growing imports and
exports
• The fact that waste prevention from its basic ideas needs to be implemented outside the
waste management sector in areas where this sector has little control.
What needs to be done to overcome these barriers?

• Waste prevention and recycling strategies have to change their focus from short term
gains to long term system changes
• The coordination of raw materials’ policy, sustainable production and consumption
policy and technology development policy with waste prevention and recycling policy
needs to be further strengthened
• The concept of efficiency needs to be complemented by the concept of sufficiency (it is
not necessary to meet all needs to achieve a high quality of life)
• The development of efficient products should be complemented by the
introduction/development of efficient services (concept dematerialisation)
• Activities for fostering sustainable consumption should not stop at labelling/product
information but also include awareness campaigns for consumers on which
consequences their decisions have and what they could do to cause lower
environmental impacts.
• The concept of life cycle thinking needs to be complemented by information collection,
policy development and policy implementation (as far as possible and efficient) for all
steps of the life cycle from mining in Southern America, via production in China, to
meeting the service demand in Europe to after-consumption in Africa or Russia.

7. Annexes
Annex 1: Key Data on Austrian Material Flows and the Austrian Waste Management Sector
In Austria domestic material extraction (DE) in the period 1990 to 2007 grew at an average
rate of 0.5 %/a. The annual growth rate of material imports, however, with 4.4 %/a was
much higher. Domestic extraction and imports combined grew from 165 million tonnes in
1990 to 222 million tonnes in 2007 (see Figure 1). This corresponds to a growth of the per
capita material input of 21 tonnes per person in 1990 to 27 tonnes per person in 2007.
The trend of limited growth of domestic extraction and strong growth of imports is even
more pronounced with metals (see Figure 2). While the Domestic Extraction of metals
stagnated, the metal imports grew at a rate of 5.6 %/a.
But not only the imports, also the exports grew at a high rate (see Figure 3). The amount of
imports grew from 31 % as compared to the domestic material consumption in 1990 to 56
%, the exports from 16 to 37 %.

In the 9 years from 1999 to 2008 total waste arisings increased from 48.6 million tons to
56.3 million tons (+ 16 %) (see Figure 4). Part of the increase can be explained by the higher
generation of secondary waste due to increased waste treatment activities. Therefore 2
million tons of the waste generated in 2008 can be allocated to secondary waste. The
arisings of excavated soils as by far the biggest waste fraction increased from 20 to 25.6
million tons.
In the period from 1999 to 2008 the arisings of waste from households and similar
establishments increased from 3.1 million tons in 1999 to 3.8 million tons in 2008 (+ 22 %).
Due to an increase in the separate collection of waste, residual household waste arisings,
however, increased only by 5 % (see Figure 5):
With the treatment of household waste, a substantial shift from landfilling to thermal
treatment took place (see Figure 6).

In 2008 a share of 60 % of the waste generated in Austria was collected to be recovered or
conditioned and additional 18 % were thermally recovered.
In 2008 following material recycling rates were achieved:
- Approximately 80 % with construction and demolition waste
- Over 85 % for the sum of paper, metals, plastics and glass from household waste
(Umweltbundesamt 2009).
