Containers by separation quality (percent)

Pre-release. This site describes standard version 0.1.0-dev, which is in development and may change before version 1.0.0.

Provisional. Usable pending approval; a project-proposed concept only by the project that proposed it.

Definition

Separation quality ratings of containers in use, made on completed service point evaluations that fulfil a scheduled visit, at each level of the separation-quality scale, divided by all such ratings of the same stream, as a percentage. Only a container whose content state is in use is rated. The levels are clean, minor, noticeable and heavy contamination, and not separated; the share clean or with minor contamination is the headline. Ratings on unscheduled evaluations are reported alongside, never in the rate. Kind rate.

purpose

To show whether participants separate at source, and how cleanly, stream by stream.

rationale

Recovery depends on clean streams; rating containers in use on a scheduled sample, and leaving empty or missing containers to the container indicator, measures behaviour without confusing it with container loss.
