In the UK, the majority of offensive waste is disposed of at landfills. However, producers have a duty of care under the Waste Hierarchy to divert waste away from landfill. Using case studies from the East of England, the East Midlands and West Midlands in England, this study sought to quantify the waste arisings disposed of to landfill and to understand the reasons why. The findings show that offensive waste arisings, treatment method and costs varied by region, only a fraction of the waste disposed of to landfill in the East of England, compared with the majority being disposed of to landfill in the East Midlands and West Midlands. Despite the financial implications of landfilling being the lowest cost per tonne option, the key barriers to moving away from disposal to landfill was a lack of available alternatives, and it being the only option offered by the waste contractor.

英格兰国家卫生局对进攻性废物管理的评估：一种案例研究方法。

在英国，大多数令人讨厌的废物都在填埋场处置。但是，根据废物分类，生产者有责任将废物从掩埋场转移出去。本研究使用英格兰东部，英格兰东米德兰兹地区和西米德兰兹地区的案例研究，试图量化处理垃圾填埋场产生的废物并了解其原因。调查结果表明，进攻性垃圾的产生，处理方法和成本因地区而异，与英格兰东部和中部西部的大部分垃圾相比，英格兰东部的垃圾仅占一小部分。尽管填埋是每吨成本最低的财务隐患，但从处置转移到填埋的主要障碍是缺乏可用的替代品，
