The steep decline in the quantities of wastes is mostly due to the reduction in production volumes. The disposal of circulation fluids in the course
of the changeover in painting processes nonetheless gave rise to a further increase in the quantity of hazardous wastes for disposal.
The recycling rate for non-hazardous waste (without scrap) increased slightly to 78 percent. Expenditure related to environmental protection
dropped in line with the business development. The rise in environmentally related R&D expenditures as a proportion of the total R&D expenditures
(from 39 to 43 percent), however, underlines their increasing priority. (*2009 figures are provisional)

Direct emissions:
Liquefied petroleum
gas (LPG)
Fuel oil
Coal
Natural gas
Indirect emissions:
District heating
Electricity
The fall in total CO2 emissions relative to the previous year amounted to 15.9 percent. The direct emissions from the burning of
fossil energy carriers (Scope 1) fell more steeply than the indirect emissions due to the generation of electricity and district heating (Scope 2) in 2009.
The updated conversion factors have given rise to minor deviations from previous calculations.
