CEN/TC 261/SC 4/WG 4 - Energy recovery
The tasks of this working group are: - To define the requirements and standards connected with environmentally acceptable energy conversion of packaging, taking due note of the residues of material contents, specially - To define conditions for incineration taking due note of regulations existing in different countries, - To define the requirements for used packaging to be incinerated without contravening existing regulations, - To work out rules for calculating the energy recovered from different packaging; working in close contact with WG 1.

General Information
This European Standard specifies the requirements for a packaging to be classified as recoverable in the form of energy and sets out procedures for assessment of conformity with those requirements. The scope is limited to factors under the control of the supplier.
This standard cannot by itself provide presumption of conformity. The procedure for applying this standard is contained in EN 13427.
