'0' : < 0,001 This interactive table presents the Domestic processed Output DPO issued form the Material flow accounts. DPO measures the total weight of materials from domestic extraction and imports that are released to the environment after having been used by the national economy. DPO follows the residence principle: it includes emissions abroad of resident units (for example: Airline companies of Switzerland) and excludes emissions in Switzerland of non-resident units (for example: foreign heavy goods vehicles). Since the 2019 data update and in order to comply with international standards, the quantities of waste disposal to landfills have been excluded from emissions to nature. Landfills are thus considered as part of the infrastructure of the society. More information about EW-MFA:
