The legislation
WEEE is the fastest growing municipal solid waste streams, because the need to be in step with the technology is becoming higher, and companies invest significant amounts to continuously improve their IT infrastructure. In Europe, the amount of WEEE generated record growth of 3-5% per year, 3 times faster than the total waste flows.
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) are a special category of waste, and the collection, treatment and recycling are important for several reasons:
– You can avoid environmental pollution with greenhouse gases or harmful heavy metals – about 70% of the toxic substances that reach the landfill from such equipment;
– Can recover significant quantities of secondary raw materials from WEEE as have a high degree of recycling-reuse (between 85-90%)
– Recycling reduces our dependence on natural resources (finite) and is an important part of creating a sustainable society.
Romanian legislation obligate the EEE users not to dispose WEEE as unsorted municipal waste and to collect this WEEE separately.
