Article 13 of Regulation (EC) 1069/2009 sets out the disposal routes for category 2 material. The basic options of [[Incineration|incineration]] and rendering followed by [[Incineration|incineration]] are permitted, as with category 1 material. All category 2 material can also be pressure-rendered and disposed of in an authorised [[Landfill|landfill]] site. | Article 13 of Regulation (EC) 1069/2009 sets out the disposal routes for category 2 material.

Category 2 material can be pressure-rendered and then used for the production of organic fertilisers and soil improvers. It can also be pressure-rendered and used in an approved [[Composting|composting]] or [[Anaerobic Digestion|anaerobic digestion]] plant. A very limited number of category 2 materials (manure, digestive tract content, milk and milk-based products and colostrum) may be applied directly to land without processing provided there is no risk of transmitting a disease. | Category 2 material can be [[Rendering|pressure-rendered]] and then used for the production of organic fertilisers and soil improvers.
