Knowledge of the waste composition is essential for effective and sustainable planning in waste management. Estimating the composition of mixed municipal waste is important to increase waste separation and related recycling. Many studies have presented their methodologies for analysing the composition of mixed municipal waste, but no uniform approach is available. Very often a significant part of mixed municipal waste is the fine fraction, the more detailed composition of which is unknown. This contribution aims to present a methodology for obtaining essential information about the fine fraction. A proposed approach for chemical analyses of the fine fraction is feasible in a simply furnished laboratory. For fine fraction, the amount of moisture and the combustible part of the waste are first monitored. Elemental composition of non-combustible waste and its phase composition is further evaluated. The outputs of the analyses were presented on five selected samples. The approach to chemical analysis has been designed to be easily repeatable, time-saving and can complement routine manual waste analyses.
