This paper discusses the concept and framework of Material Flow Environmental Accounting (MFEA) to quantify material and monetary flows pertinent to resource recycling activities in a region. Various approaches are being taken to establish common framework of MFEA. The methodologies of Material Flow Analysis (MFA) and Environmental Accounting such as SEEA (System for Integrated Environmental and Economic Accounting) which have been developed to integrate economy and environment are used to establish MFEA on national and regional scales. Municipal Waste Environmental Accounting (MWEA) is also developed to deal with material flows associated with municipal wastes such as containers and packaging wastes. The framework of environmental accounting system developed to assess environmental performance of companies is applied to municipal waste collection and treatment services provided by municipal governments. This paper presents a review of relevant studies on these topics.
