Notes: |
|
1) |
The amount indicated has been included in the
figures for "municipal waste water/sludge", and is for that reason not included
in the figure for "water, total" (to avoid double counting). |
2) |
The amount indicated is only included in the
figure for "total" to the extent, that it is not covered by other topics items
(to avoid double counting reference is made to note 1 and 3). |
3) |
The amount indicated has been included in the
figure for "landfills, Solid waste incineration/landfilling", and is for that
reason not included in the figure for "landfills, total" (to avoid double
counting). |
4) |
Other fuels cover oil products, wood and straw. |
5) |
It is not possible to quantify the loss of
mercury to soil, that most likely will take place at metal scrap dealers dealing with
recycling of iron- and metal-scrap containing mercury switches (chest freezers, cars). |
