Construction and Demolition Waste (C&D Waste) is defined as "waste generated by construction and demolition activities" [1]. Construction, Demolition and Excavation waste (mining waste) (CD&E Waste) includes excavation materials.
DEFRA statistics published in July 2021 show that there was 67.8 million tonnes of C&D Waste generated in 2018, with the addition of excavation waste taking the total CD&E Waste generated in the UK in 2018 to 137.8 million tonnes, with a further 14.8 million tonnes of mining waste[2].
Under the Waste Framework Directive there is a target to for the Recovery of non-hazardous C&D waste of 70% by 2020, which the UK is currently meeting even taking into consideration the high level of uncertainty around the absolute tonnage figures. The large proportion of this waste is used as a Secondary Aggregate in construction. The figures for England and the UK are extracted in the table below from the DEFRA Digest for C&D Waste[2]
