To be ready, we need:<\/p><ul><li>A national emergency MBT capacity reserve equipped with modular lines, screens, presses, and other mobile units.<\/li><li>Pre-agreed interregional arrangements for alternative (\u201cdetour\u201d) routes and gate fees in case of stress situations.<\/li><\/ul><p>Data from this spring and summer show that if we are not prepared, we will again face situations where:<\/p><ul><li>Only partially sorted waste is sent for incineration \u2013 out of 10,310 tons received, 9,310 tons were burned.<\/li><li>Industrial SRF demand cannot be met \u2013 this summer, production was reduced tenfold.<\/li><li>A portion of waste remains untreated \u2013 around 18,500 tons were landfilled, left at waste operators\u2019 sites, or otherwise unmanaged.<\/li><\/ul><p>Thank you for the discussions \u2013 it was a pleasure to meet and talk about current market issues.
