Under the By-Law on Waste Management (BWM), annual waste declarations are made by waste producers using the Waste Management Application/Waste Declaration System (WDS) under the Integrated Environmental Information System (ecbs.cevre. gov.tr) of the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change. Hazardous waste data in the WDS consists of waste generator declarations and contains information about the hazardous waste generated by the waste generator at the facility during the reporting yearand sent to the waste processing facility for recovery/disposal. The quantities of waste oils, waste vegetable oils, waste batteries, waste accumulators, waste electrical and electronic equipment, and end-of-life tires declared by waste producers to the Waste Declaration System for the period 2013-2020 are shown in Graph 85.
