This Technical Report (TR) provides a methodology for information exchange involving EEE manufacturers and recyclers, and for calculating the recyclability and recoverability rates to: - provide information to recyclers to enable appropriate and optimized EoL treatment operations - provide sufficient information to characterize activities at EoL treatment facilities - evaluate the recyclability and recoverability rates based on product attributes and reflecting real end of life practices Furthermore this TR includes: - criteria to describe EoL treatment scenarios - criteria to determine product parts that might require removal before material separation and related information to be provided by manufacturers (location and material composition) - a format for information describing EoL scenarios and the results of EoL treatment activities - a method for calculating the recyclability and recoverability rate of EEE. The calculation is limited to EoL treatment and does not cover collection. The recyclability rate is expressed as a percentage of the mass of the product that can be recycled or reused, whereas the recoverability rate in addition includes a portion derived from energy recovery. This TR can be applied to all electrical and electronic equipment. - some example data corresponding to identified scenarios provided in an appendix.
