- Added waste disposed (55kt) to waste recycled (59kt) = 114kt

 

- Hazardous waste converted from metric kilotons to metric tonnes using : http://www.unitconversion.org/weight/kilotons-metric-to-tons-metric-conversion.html

 

Notes:

- Disposed = incineration and landfill.

- The figures exclude Sigma-Aldrich since the integration process is still underway.
