I have worked for more than 16 years in waste management industry in Austria and CEE.
Currently the significance of waste as secondary raw material becomes more and more important. Waste and valuable materials are regarded as resources and the waste business therefore is a fascinating business.
Urban mining offers new possibilities: At a time of growing resources shortages, e.g. electronic waste is a treasure trove of opportunity. Slags from incinerators or from metal-industry contain precious ferrous and non-ferrous materials.
