Stocks and flows

 

Objectives

Quantify existing product stocks in the Urban Mine.

Quantify how these stocks move through Europe as reported as recycled through the official Producer Responsibility regime and where products move in complementary waste streams.

Using Material Flow Analysis, redundancy analysis and data reconciliation techniques, improve the reliability of estimates of the flows arising from stocks and the flows of waste collection and treatment.

Identify standard methodologies for assessing stocks and flows, including data reliability through statistical analysis.

Develop harmonised protocols to identify future stocks and flows.
