The following chart illustrates the evolution of material
recovery in the refi nery. This indicator should be understood in
its relation to the amount of waste produced.

As can be observed from the analysis of the previous charts, in
recent years it is notorious the refi nery’s effort to reduce the
production of waste which is not likely to be recycled given the
amount of recyclable waste.
As far as the amount of industrial waste that can be recovered
is concerned, the refi nery’s performance depends on the
completion of work carried out by third parties, and the
activities undertaken. Actually the vast material recovery in the
year 2010, as in 2007, was due to a technical shutdown for
maintenance, having been produced large quantities of metallic
scrap arising from the replacement of equipment.
