Answer

Will the waste transfer plan affect Son Reus emissions in Palma?

Yes, that is one of the concerns raised in the discussion. If Son Reus receives more waste in a short period, the plant would need to stay within its emission limits and handle the material safely. That is why some proposals call for a limited pilot with independent monitoring before any larger rollout.
