LCA meta studie fra DTU
There is little doubt that recycling is good for the environment. In 2006 the Technical University of Denmark conducted a review of 272 studies comparing the effects of recycling with those of landfilling or incineration.

The aim of the study has been to identify and critically review existing LCA studies covering
alternative waste management options for a selection of seven waste categories of particular
significance to the recycling sector: paper/cardboard, plastics, glass, wood, steel, aluminium
and aggregates. The methodology can be readily adapted to further materials in the future.
