Overview
This European Technical Specification contains requirements for the collection, handling, sorting, storage and transport of all types of WEEE. It is part of a series of standards dealing with the general and specific treatment of WEEE and preparation for re-use. It is designed to support institutions - effective and efficient collection, handling, sorting, storage, preparation for transport and effective and efficient onward transport of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) in order to prevent pollution and reduce emissions; - prevent improper disposal of WEEE; - ensure environmental protection and human health and safety; - to provide optimum conditions for increased preparation for re-use activities in order to extend the useful life of products; - to prevent the supply of WEEE to operators whose activities do not comply with the European EN 50625 and/or EN 50574-1 series of standards; - to create a level playing field for all operators carrying out WEEE collection and logistics processes. It is therefore aimed at all operators who carry out collection and logistics processes. The responsible committee is K 191 "Umweltschutz und Nachhaltigkeit bei Produkten in der Elektrotechnik, Elektronik, Informationstechnik" ("Environmental protection and sustainability for products in electrotechnics, electronics, information technology") of the DKE (German Commission for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies) at DIN and VDE.
