Digestate

Amendment to Regulation No 12 of the Minister for the Environment of 10 May 2016 on requirements for biogas digestate generated from biodegradable waste

The aim is to amend the requirements for biogas digestate generated from biodegradable waste. The regulation is an end-of-waste regulation enabling producers of digestate generated from biodegradable waste to certify digestate as a product and giving consumers the certainty that the product they buy is of high quality and safe for human health and the environment. The aim of amending the regulation is to remove the cut-off value for enterobacteria from the quality and safety indicators. It has become clear during the practical implementation of the regulation that this cut-off value is not relevant.
