WASTE MANAGEMENT AND EXPLOITATION - Convegno
Place: Neri Room 1 South Hall
Circular resources in the electrical and electronic equipment sector: fact or fiction?
By ASSORAEE (Italian Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Association) and Italian WEEE Coordination Centre
This year´s WEEE Forum, through five specific themes, proposes greater appreciation of the role that the electrical and electronic equipment sector can play in the circular economy, promoting design with reusability and recyclability in mind, the reuse of EEE, adequate treatment of WEEE and the recovery of critical raw materials. In any case, a prerequisite for the circular economy is that the material obtained through recycling finds a suitable destination and it is consequently necessary to grasp the direction in which the raw material market is heading, where the various flows are directed and to what extent the national network of systems is complete. Discussed by experts, companies, associations in the sector and institutional representatives.
