Abstract

A new, modificated sampling method has been developed and used for sorting household waste in the Netherlands. Although application of this method was rather successful, some reservations must be made on its results and organizational features. On these aspects a comparison is made with the method used in the regular RUVM-sorting experiments. Both methods were analysed and described with their pro's and con's. The jconclusions from this report must be used in making a decision about the final sampling method for future sorting experiments on household waste in the Netherlands.
