Required material volumes for the landfill construction
Listed below are the volumes of landfill substitute construction materials by type of material required to expand the Kapiteltal landfill.

The use of waste for direct use as or for the production of secondary landfill construction material is carried out in accordance with Annex 3 of the Landfill Directive. This means that the material must comply with the assignment values specified there. Over the entire period of the Kapiteltal construction project from 2015 to 2023, approx. 2.2 million tonnes of substitute building materials in form of secondary aggregates will be used in the landfill. The landfill construction materials used must meet defined characteristics. The quantitative breakdown by material and corresponding material properties are explained in more detail below.
