8. The aim of the draft is to define the criteria by which the defined types of waste cease to be waste. The draft defines these criteria for liquid and gaseous fuel produced from waste. In selected cases, it also allows for material recovery.
The possibility to stipulate, at national level, criteria under which waste that has been subject to recycling or other recovery operations may cease to be waste and the essential requirements for such criteria is based on Article 6 of Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives, as amended by Directive (EU) 2018/851.
The draft aims to simplify the use of fuels from waste in terms of the requirements of the Waste Act and its implementing legislation. This simplification should help to divert waste from landfill towards energy recovery.
The requirements are stipulated in such a way that the process does not endanger the environment or human health beyond what is ensured by waste management of these fuels.
Keywords: waste, waste-derived liquid fuel, waste-derived gaseous fuel, waste incineration, recycling, waste recovery
9. The draft Decree is implementing legislation to Act No 541/2020 on waste, as amended. This Act was forwarded as a basic regulation to the TRIS database under notification 2023/119/CZ.
The Decree stipulates the criteria for the end of the waste regime for two types of waste-derived fuels:
1) Category I fuels - waste treatment outputs that are of high quality and are normally also produced from primary raw materials. They can also be recovered materially.
2) Category II fuels - output from the treatment of any other waste, their energy recovery must take place in a regime of thermal treatment of waste in defined types of sources.
3) Liquid fuel - fuel oil from waste oils.
The draft Decree refers to the following European Union regulations:
Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 November 2008 on waste and repealing certain Directives.
Directive (EU) 2018/851 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 May 2018 amending Directive 2008/98/EC on waste.
Regulation (EU) 2019/1021 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on persistent organic pollutants (recast), as amended.
Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/2326 of 30 November 2021 establishing best available techniques (BAT) conclusions, under Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, for large combustion plants.
Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2019/2010 of 12 November 2019 establishing best available techniques (BAT) conclusions for the incineration of waste pursuant to Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council.
Commission Implementing Decision 2013/163/EU of 26 March 2013 establishing the best available techniques (BAT) conclusions pursuant to Directive 2010/75/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council on industrial emissions for the production of cement, lime and magnesium oxide.

In the case of technical standard No 1, this is a binding reference. Other technical standards are referred to by indicative reference. This reference is contained in § 8(1) of the draft Decree, which reads as follows: ‘Sampling and test methods must be representative and conclusive and must reflect as accurately as possible the actual fuel quality. The requirement laid down in the first sentence is met if the appropriate method set out in Annex 3 to this Decree is used for this purpose.’
