Chapter 8 provides an overview of the green metrics used to evaluate the sustainability of IL-based waste valorisation technologies and proposes a set of additional tools that have the potential to be used in the development of cost-effective and safer ILs. Considerations on the legal and ethical implications associated with waste valorisation technologies are presented and discussed. The challenges associated with the sustainable use of waste to foster the transition into a zero-waste society, in which nothing is waste as everything can be reused or its components recovered, are discussed.
