Organic waste is waste that is biodegradable, including [[Garden Waste]] and [[Food Waste]]<ref name="foo">WRAP, 2017. [http://wrap.org.uk/collections-and-reprocessing/organics Organics | WRAP UK. Wrap.org.uk.] [online] [Accessed 5 Dec. 2019].</ref>‌.  
Organic waste is waste that is biodegradable, generally reported as [[Garden Waste]] and [[Food Waste]]. Whilst other wastes have an organic and/or biological content (such as [[Sewage Sludge]] and [[Agricultural Waste]] manures and slurries) they are separately reported.


[[Anaerobic Digestion]] and [[Composting]] are the best methods for dealing with organic waste, and is essential to diverting waste from landfill and producing renewable energy and sustainable fertilisers<ref name="foo" />.
[[Anaerobic Digestion]] and [[Composting]] (either [[Windrow Composting]] or [[In-vessel Composting]]) are the [[treatment]] methods for dealing with organic waste, and are key to diverting waste from [[landfill]] and producing renewable energy and sustainable fertilisers.

The most recent information published by DEFRA <ref>[https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/digest-of-waste-and-resource-statistics-2018-edition Digest of Waste Resources 2018] reporting data from 2016</ref> <ref>[https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/uk-waste-data UK Statistics on Waste 2019] updating some of the 2018 Digest with 2017 data</ref>identifies three categories of wastes that are generally considered to be organic and is part of the broader tonnage reported as [[UK Waste Tonnage]]:
The most recent information published by [[DEFRA]] <ref>[https://www.gov.uk/government/statistical-data-sets/env23-uk-waste-data-and-management UK Statistics on Waste 2020]</ref> is based on 2016 data, with [[WRAP]] data for [[Food Waste]] from 2018<ref name="org2">[https://wrap.org.uk/sites/files/wrap/Food_%20surplus_and_waste_in_the_UK_key_facts_Jan_2020.pdf [[WRAP]] Key Facts Jan. 2020] </ref> and organic waste generally from 2008<ref name = "org1"/>. The macro numbers under-report the total organic waste arisings in the UK as a whole as they exclude:
* Organic Waste which is within general mixed waste (i.e. [[DEFRA]] only report segregated materials)
* A large proportion of [[Agricultural Waste]] which is [[Food Waste]] (and hence Organic Waste) which is not reported (i.e. reject crops or crop wastage that is ploughed back into fields)
* Other organic waste streams that are separately recorded (i.e. [[Sewage Sludge]] and [[Agricultural Waste]] manures and slurries)
 
=== [[WRAP]] Figures ===
[[WRAP]] in their organics report (dated 2008)<ref name = "org1"/> reported the following total arisings:
{| class="wikitable"
{| class="wikitable"
|-
|-
! Reported by DEFRA as Generated in 2016 !! Tonnes

# The table is superseded by the figure below, showing the reviewed position of [[WRAP]] for [[Food Waste]] at 9,500,000 tonnes in 2018 (a reduction of around 2,300,000 tonnes) taking the total organic waste arisings to around '''23,000,000 tonnes'''.
# Within the report [[WRAP]] indicated that 3,612,000 tonnes of the total arisings shown was collected, the majority of which was [[Garden Waste]]. [[Food Waste]] collection has increased since that time to around treble that reported as collected (c. 780,000 tonnes) and an increase in composting at the home (c. 530,000 tonnes). This has resulted in [[WRAP]] now reporting 1,300,000 tonnes of collected [[Food Waste]]. With [[Garden Waste]] reasonably static this means the 3,612,000 tonnes has increased to around 4,600,000 tonnes.
 
 
As noted above, [[WRAP]] in their most recent report <ref name = "org2" />identify around 9,500,000 tonnes of [[Food Waste]], of which 6,600,000 tonnes was from household sources with the following graphic summarising their findings and further explained on the [[Food Waste]] page:

<br clear='left'/>
 
===[[DEFRA]] Figures===
As set out above, the [[DEFRA]] macro numbers only report segregated organic waste and identifies three categories of wastes:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
! Reported by [[DEFRA]] as Generated in 2016 !! Tonnes  
|-
|-

| Animal Faeces, Urine & Manure || 114,422  
|-
| Total|| 9,189,587
|}
|}


The final category is not relevant to household waste and local authority waste generally, but the other two categories have more significant tonnage that is split across primarily household, commercial and industrial tonnages as shown the in pie charts below:
The categories are split into six potential sources, as are all the [[DEFRA]] figures, summarised in the pie charts and data tables below:
{| class="wikitable"

|-
|-
Line 40: Line 75:
|}
|}


The macro numbers above under-report the total organic waste put into the market as the macro numbers exclude tonnage in mixed categories and under report food waste at farm which may be ploughed back into fields without recording it as waste.  
From the information above, 4,959,851 tonnes is reported as household (54% of the total) and slightly more than the estimated figure of 4,600,000 tonnes above (mainly as a result of [[Garden Waste]] assumptions). The tonnage reported as [[C&I Waste]] of 4,063,247 tonnes (45% of the total) will be predominantly [[Food Waste]], with only incidental other tonnage captured from other sources. This tonnage is higher than [[WRAP]] figures.

Organic Waste is generally reported to comprise Garden Waste and Food Waste and arisings total around 23,000,000 tonnes per year. It generally excludes Agricultural Waste (including manures and slurries which total around 90,000,000 tonnes per year) and Sewage Sludge (which totals around 2,000,000 tonnes per year)[1].

Overview

Organic waste is waste that is biodegradable, generally reported as Garden Waste and Food Waste. Whilst other wastes have an organic and/or biological content (such as Sewage Sludge and Agricultural Waste manures and slurries) they are separately reported.

Anaerobic Digestion and Composting (either Windrow Composting or In-vessel Composting) are the treatment methods for dealing with organic waste, and are key to diverting waste from landfill and producing renewable energy and sustainable fertilisers.

Macro Tonnage

The most recent information published by DEFRA [2] is based on 2016 data, with WRAP data for Food Waste from 2018[3] and organic waste generally from 2008[1]. The macro numbers under-report the total organic waste arisings in the UK as a whole as they exclude:

  • Organic Waste which is within general mixed waste (i.e. DEFRA only report segregated materials)
  • A large proportion of Agricultural Waste which is Food Waste (and hence Organic Waste) which is not reported (i.e. reject crops or crop wastage that is ploughed back into fields)
  • Other organic waste streams that are separately recorded (i.e. Sewage Sludge and Agricultural Waste manures and slurries)

WRAP Figures

WRAP in their organics report (dated 2008)[1] reported the following total arisings:

Organic Waste MSW Arisings (Tonnes) C&I Waste Arisings (Tonnes) Total Arisings (Tonnes)
Food Waste 6,100,000 5,700,000 11,800,00001
Garden Waste 6,400,000 4,200.000 10,600,000
Other 0 2,600,000 2,600,000
Total 12,500,0002 12,500,000 25,000,000
  1. The table is superseded by the figure below, showing the reviewed position of WRAP for Food Waste at 9,500,000 tonnes in 2018 (a reduction of around 2,300,000 tonnes) taking the total organic waste arisings to around 23,000,000 tonnes.
  2. Within the report WRAP indicated that 3,612,000 tonnes of the total arisings shown was collected, the majority of which was Garden Waste. Food Waste collection has increased since that time to around treble that reported as collected (c. 780,000 tonnes) and an increase in composting at the home (c. 530,000 tonnes). This has resulted in WRAP now reporting 1,300,000 tonnes of collected Food Waste. With Garden Waste reasonably static this means the 3,612,000 tonnes has increased to around 4,600,000 tonnes.


As noted above, WRAP in their most recent report [3]identify around 9,500,000 tonnes of Food Waste, of which 6,600,000 tonnes was from household sources with the following graphic summarising their findings and further explained on the Food Waste page:

DEFRA Figures

As set out above, the DEFRA macro numbers only report segregated organic waste and identifies three categories of wastes:

Reported by DEFRA as Generated in 2016 Tonnes
Animal & Mixed Food Waste 3,056,065
Vegetable Wastes 6,019,100
Animal Faeces, Urine & Manure 114,422
Total 9,189,587

The categories are split into six potential sources, as are all the DEFRA figures, summarised in the pie charts and data tables below:

Vegetable Wastes Animal & Mixed Food Waste
Data Table Data Table
Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing (AFF) 11,129 Agriculture, Forestry and Fishing (AFF) 31,846
Mining and Quarrying (MQ) 1,241 Mining and Quarrying (MQ) 416
Industrial (Ind) 1,333,996 Industrial (Ind) 1,657,269
Construction (Con) 7,341 Construction (Con) 93
Commercial (Com) 266,771 Commercial (Com) 805,211
Household (HH) 4,398,621 Household (HH) 561,230

From the information above, 4,959,851 tonnes is reported as household (54% of the total) and slightly more than the estimated figure of 4,600,000 tonnes above (mainly as a result of Garden Waste assumptions). The tonnage reported as C&I Waste of 4,063,247 tonnes (45% of the total) will be predominantly Food Waste, with only incidental other tonnage captured from other sources. This tonnage is higher than WRAP figures.

WasteDataFlow Figures

The tonnage reported through WasteDataFlow by the Waste Collection Authorities and Waste Disposal Authorities for England and Wales are set out in the sections below for each Collection System Design for Garden Waste and Food Waste. The tonnage reported is for the 2017/18 financial year and is summarised as follows (and screens out those reporting below the de-minimus figures set out in each section for simplicity):

Collection Method Tonnes
Green garden Waste Only 286,161
Mixed garden and Food Waste 310,815
Other Compostable Waste 63,642
Waste food Only 157,30
Total 818,148

Green garden Waste Only

Below is a list of local authorities that send greater than 20,000 tonnes of Green Waste to a single waste operator as part of a Collection System Design that is termed Green Separate in the arrangements section of WikiWaste, and which can be on a variety of different frequencies and can be Green Charged or Green Not Charged:
