a. 2021, “Lös plastfrågan högt upp i avfallstrappan [Solve the plastic issue higher up in the waste hierarchy]”, in Anna Lejestrand, editor, Energiföretagen Sverige, archived from the original on 21 September 2021:Det finns inget behov av plastavfall för el- och värmeproduktion men så länge plast förekommer i samhället är energiåtervinning genom förbränning det mest resurseffektiva sättet att få bort giftig, kontaminerad eller utsliten plast. Energiåtervinning ska bara ske av fraktioner som inte kan nyttiggöras högre upp i avfallshierarkin.- There is no need for plastic waste in electricity and heat production, but as long as plastic exists in society, energy recovery through incineration is the most resource-efficient way to remove toxic, contaminated, or worn-out plastic. Energy recovery should only be used for fractions that cannot be utilized higher up in the waste hierarchy.
