The Environment DG and the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission organised a workshop/conference on biowaste on 8, 9 and 10 April 2002 in Brussels.

The aim of this three-day event was to discuss a number of policy and technical aspects relative to the collection of municipal biodegradable waste, the production of compost and biogas, and the use of compost and digestate on agricultural land. More than 200 European experts attended the presentations, participated into the discussion and shared their experiences.

The full papers will be published in the coming months. When the proceedings are avaible, a notice will be given on this page.
