Alle geanalyseerde gegevens worden uitgeworpen als selectieresultaat en aangeboden aan het behandelen van de uitworp.

This relates to a passenger profiling system. The word features several times in the text, along with uitwerpen and uitworpbehandeling. I initially used 'results' and have toyed with 'emission data' and 'findings', but am wondering if anyone knows the correct term. TIA.

rejection
Explanation:
The straightforward dictionary meaning of uitwerpen is to throw out or eject. It seems to me from your extract that you are speaking here of subjects who are rejected from a study for various reasons yet although their data is not calculated into the statistical result, some overview in tabular or other form is given, stating the reasons why they have been rejected from the main statistics.

Your extract:

The rejects are presented in anonymised form, e.g. in the form of an overview at PNR (Passenger Name Record) level, including details of all criteria with accompanying scores. The reason for rejection is given at PNR level.

Here is a very useful article which itself contains further links:

Explanation:
Although the 'Juridisch Lexicon' also uses emission, emission is interpreted by the Oxford dictionary as 'especially gas or radiation' so I would stick with selection result.

Another possibility is 'out-turn', to use both in one sentence.

Asker: Hi Anne, thanks for your thoughts. The only problem is that 'selectieresultaat' is used in the same sentence, so I was looking for a different term.
