This statistic shows the amount of nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from waste collection, treatment and disposal including materials recovery services in the United Kingdom (UK) from 1990 to 2017. It shows that emissions decreased in this sector, from 11,900 metric tons of sulphur dioxide (SO2) equivalent in 1990, to 7,200 metric tons of sulphur dioxide equivalent in 2017.
Total nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions from waste collection and treatment in the United Kingdom (UK) from 1990 to 2017
(in 1,000 metric tons of SO2 equivalent)
Characteristic
Emissions in thousand metric tons of SO2 equivalent
Sulphur Dioxide (SO2) is a highly reactive gas, that along with Nitrogen Oxide (NOx) and Ammonia (NH3) is measured as a precursor to acid rain.
This includes waste collection, treatment and disposal services as well as material recovery services.
Sector classification is based on the NACE code, which is the industry standard classification system for economic activities in the European Community.
