OUR FOCUS
The cost of recycling
Capital Cost: All assets related to the processing of waste (warehouses, machines, equipment, patents,…)
Office, Administrative & Overhead: All costs related to personnel not directly working on the line

Scavenging levels - Coverage
13 companies covering 27 locations
Total volume reported: 465,000 tons
Almost all responses covering 2016
51 collection category - country combinationsLHA 9; C&F 6; Screens 10; LMP 3; LHA 9; SHA 12; IT 11
Well-spread over Europe
The elephant in the room...
Scavenging levels - General
Scavenging is not just components missing, but also valuable products!
It however seriously affects the values of the contracted recycling!
Scavenging ≠ Materials are Lost!
Scavenging products EERA vs ProSUM
Precise value of € missing per ton is very country dependent
Scavenging levels – C&F
EERA survey amounts: Countries with high CFC level
also have high scavenging level! CFC level was 58% 4 years ago
EERA survey:280,000 tons of CO2
= annual emissions of200,000 cars!
When extrapolated to EU C&F WEEE volume:
8 million tonnes CO2 eq = annual emissions of
6 million cars!
Scavenging levels – C&F
2 of these...
Scavening compressors, when extrapolated to EU volume:
8 million tonnes CO2 eq =
Scavenging levels - Screens
CRT% in pieces quickly dropping now in richer countries Average dropped from 86% to
66% now!
Scavenging levels: High for cables due to
detachable power chords High for drives from laptops
(large deviations) Some scavenging of CRT
deflection coils/ electron guns in Southern and Eastern Europe
Estimations of ‘losses’ due to scavenging
Based on scavenging level and the price per components. ‘Losses’ for 2016 are against total WEEE Generated EU28+2 = 10.4 million tons in total
1.7 Mt 1.3 Mt 3.4 Mt 4.1 MtWEEE Generated EU28+2, 2016 Largest contributions from:
1. Cables, 80 million €
2. Drives, 40 million €
3. Circuit boards, 30 mllion €
4. Compressors, 15 million €
Is scavenging country dependent?
2016 data
Based on 226 individual responses of scavenged items
HIGH = Highest 1/3 being scavengedMIDDLE = Middle 1/3 LOW = Lowest 1/3
In your country: How would you judge the quality of the nationally reported quantities (0-5)

Conclusions and Recommendations
Main conclusions – Economic Analysis
Higher labour costs for CRT and SHA due to depollution/ dismantling.
Waste disposal costs are relatively low, except for CRT glass
Energy and line maintenance costs are slightly higher for C&F and SHA
Audit costs are around 10€/t for all waste streams
The effect of avoided compliance costs is much larger than marginsAvoiding reporting reduces operational costs with +/- 20%
Avoiding depollution and waste disposal reduces operational costs with +/- 50%
Recommended: Define technical requirements before pricing quotations!
For example: Technical and Financial offers should be 70/30 or 60/40
in procurement contracts
Include impact of scavenging level (€/t) directly in pricing discussions
Main Conclusions - Scavenging
‘The elephant in the room’ is missing products, not only components!
Compared to 4 years ago: CRT% (of pieces) from 86% to 66% ; CFC% (of pieces) from 58% to 48%
The losses associated with scavenging are substantial (up to 70 €/t), EU28+2: 180 million €/yr
The largest contributors are: Cables (80 million €), Drives (40 million €), Circuit boards (30 million €), Compressors (15 million €)
Recommended:Scavenging is very country dependent, report scavenging of compressors to officials/ inspectorates!Repeat the collection quality survey annually to determine scavenging levels
Workshop on Friday 9:00 - 12:30

Invited workshopHow to achieve compliant WEEE recycling in the Nordics?
EERA &WEEE Forum are supporters of making Cenelecstandards mandatory in Europe.
Aim: collected WEEE must be handed over to certified (logistics and) treatment operators.
Invited parties:
• Representatives of the Ministries of Environmental Affairs of Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden.
• Representatives of the EPA’s of these Nordic countries
• Directors and managers of the WEEE Forum members and other Take Back Systems in the Nordics (El-Kretsen, Renas, Elretur, Úrvinnslusjódur, Norsirk, others)
• Recyclers in the Nordics (Stena Technoworld, Sims Recycling Solution, Boliden, Kuusakovski, others)
Next country: Spain?
