Name of tool ORWARE (LCA-analysis for organic waste) Description of tool - character ORWARE (environmental analysis); ORWARE is an acronym for ORganic WAste REsearch. The development of ORWARE was financed by the Swedish Waste Research Council between 1993-1997 and between 1998-1999 by the Swedish Energy Authority. In the beginning ORWARE was focused on environmental aspects of treatment of organic (biodegradable) wastes, hence the chosen name of the model. Today it includes all kinds of municipal solid waste, as well as submodels for calculation of economic aspects. The current ORWARE model handles several treatment methods such as anaerobic digestion, composting, landfilling, incineration, thermal gasification, sewage water treatment and transports. This LCA-tool has been used in several Swedish studies on waste strategies (see figure below).

Name of tool Socio-economic Assessment of Environmental Products (economic analysis) Description of tool - character "Socio-economic Assessment of Environmental Products" (economic analysis). This method, a calculation tool, has been widely used by the Ministry of Traffic (and more generally in the transport sector). The principles from this method have been applied on the waste sector.
