Abstract:
In Europe, there are different regulations regarding hazardous waste management. On the one hand, Member States must meet the recovery targets that are set in the different waste Directives, and they have two options here: material recovery facilities in the country of origin or recovery through the shipment of waste. In addition, EU Member States must comply with the regulations governing the shipment of hazardous waste (HW), that is, the Basel Convention and the European Regulation on the shipment of waste. We analyze the European regulation on the shipment of waste. This study provides a descriptive overview of the relationships between European countries and describes how each country is positioned in the joint network. The study is able to identify the most relevant countries in the network. Third, the HW-trading communities are analyzed to discover whether they behave differently from the other groups according to GDP and other variables: innovation index, research systems, innovation-friendly environment, or innovators. The results show that the Nordic countries are outstanding in the way in which their waste is managed with other countries and reveal a community that works both in the context of hazardous waste shipment and innovation.
