This document specifies requirements and provides guidance for the sustainable management of waste electrical and electronic equipment (e-waste) for all process steps, from collection to returning recovered products, components, materials or energy to the value chain. It includes traceability, monitoring and evaluation of the e-waste flow, recovery rate and recovery quality.
This document is intended for use by an organization involved in e-waste management seeking to manage its responsibilities in a systematic manner.
The requirements set by this document will help an organization to achieve sustainability outcomes within the context of e-waste management, including:
– enhancement of organizations' performance in relation to quality, environment and occupational health and safety;
– fulfilment of compliance obligations.
This document is applicable to any organization, regardless of its size, type and nature.
This document applies to the environmental, health and safety, and quality aspects of e-waste management activities that the organization determines it can either control or influence, from a lifecycle perspective.
NOTE 1 Social aspects – e.g. employment creation, conflict minerals, employment conditions – are not addressed directly but indirectly through the benefits of sustainable management of e-waste.
NOTE 2 Additional local requirements or regulations can apply.
This document is a basic environment horizontal publication focusing on essential requirements and is primarily intended for use by committees in the preparation of publications within the area of environment in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 123.

Committees can apply this document directly to products when they do not develop a product publication in the area of environment.

This document specifies the determination of height-resolved profiles of atmospheric backscattering by means of active optical sounding. The measurements allow the following properties of the atmosphere up to several kilometres above ground to be derived:
cloud bases;
upper boundaries of optically thin clouds;
upper and lower boundaries and internal structures of particle layers:
height of structures, e.g. inversions, boundary layer height, mixing layer height (under suitable conditions);
attenuated backscatter of the particles;
particle backscatter and extinction coefficients (requires further assumptions).  
The document also addresses the depolarisation lidar and the use of multi-wavelength systems. This allows further parameters to be determined:
particle size classification (Ångström exponent, colour ratio);
shape classification (linear depolarisation degree).  
The following fields of application are particularly important:
air quality monitoring (vertical structure of the boundary layer);
aviation safety (cloud base and visual range) (see ISO 28902-1[8]);
particle content and transport (e.g. volcanic dust);
weather forecasting and climate modelling (e.g. atmospheric boundary layer, cloud base, cloud microphysics);
satellite remote sensing (validation).  
Examples that illustrate these applications are discussed in Annex A.
The benefits of scanning systems for parameters mentioned above are also discussed in Clause A.7.
In addition, particle backscatter lidars that measure at least two carefully selected wavelengths can be used to determine atmospheric gas concentrations. This is known as the differential absorption lidar “DIAL” technique. This technique is not part of this document and has been described in VDI 4210-1[12].
This document does not specify extended lidar techniques that monitor the following parameters quantitatively: inelastic scattering effects such as, Raman scattering, Doppler broadening, Doppler shift, multiple scattering, modulation techniques, and spectral separation of molecular and particle backscattering [high spectral resolution lidar (HSRL)]. Some of these extended techniques are or will be described in other parts of the ISO 28902 series.  
This document does not address special features of airborne or satellite-borne systems.

This document specifies three techniques for the determination of free Bisphenol A (BPA) in plastics of electrotechnical products.
This document describes the use of liquid chromatography–diode array detector (LC-DAD), liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS), liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) with these test methods detailed in Annex A and Annex B.
These test methods have been evaluated for use with PC, PC/ABS, PP matrices containing free BPA between 20 mg/kg to 500 mg/kg as shown in the Pre-IIS 13 results in Annex C and IIS 13 results in Annex D [1], [2]. The use of these methods for BPA concentration ranges of plastics, other than those specified in Annex C and Annex D, has not been evaluated.
This document is a basic environment horizontal publication focusing on test methods and is primarily intended for use by committees in the preparation of publications within the area of environment in accordance with the principles laid down in IEC Guide 123. Wherever applicable, it is the responsibility of committees to make use of environment basic publications in the preparation of their environment group and product publications. Committees can apply this document directly to products when they do not develop a product publication in the area of environment.
WARNING – Persons using this document should be familiar with normal laboratory practice. This document does not purport to address all of the safety problems, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to ensure compliance with any national regulatory conditions.

This document defines and describes the methodology to calculate Modelling Quality Indicators (MQI) and determine fulfilment of the Modelling Quality Objectives (MQO). MQO are provided to help ensure that modelling-based assessments of air quality in the context of the ambient air quality directive [1] are objective and comparable, and of sufficient quality to obtain reliable information about concentrations of air pollutants in ambient air. The method uses measurement uncertainty and a level of stringency as a benchmark for the acceptable level of difference between modelled and measured values.
This document concerns the performance of an entire modelling system therefore the term “modelling quality objectives” is used rather than “model quality objectives”. This document concerns the use of modelling results for assessment as specified in [2]. Such modelling systems aim to capture both the spatial and temporal variability of the environmental indicator under assessment in the modelling domain. This document establishes a method to determine if the results of a modelling system fulfil the MQO and therefore reach an adequate data quality level within the modelling domain defined for assessment.
The procedures described in this document are limited in scope as they concern only statistical performance indicators. A full evaluation of a modelling system considers additional elements of quality assurance, but such procedures are outside the scope of this document.
This document only addresses modelling applications where measurements of pollutant concentrations are available that meet the data requirements for the validation defined in this document. This document specifies MQO that are applicable to all concentration ranges that may occur in ambient air. In the context of this document, MQI and MQO are specified for:
-   daily and annual averaged concentrations of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less or equal to 2,5 µm (PM2.5);
-   daily and annual averaged concentrations of particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter less or equal to 10 µm (PM10);
-   hourly, daily and annual averaged concentrations of nitrogen dioxide (NO2);
-   maximum daily 8-hour mean and seasonal averaged concentrations of ozone (O3);
-   hourly, daily and annual averaged concentrations of sulphur dioxide (SO2);
-   maximum daily 8-hour mean and daily averaged concentrations for carbon monoxide (CO);
-   annual averaged concentrations for benzene (C6H6);
-   annual averaged concentrations for lead (Pb);
-   annual averaged concentrations for arsenic (As);
-   annual averaged concentrations for cadmium (Cd);
-   annual averaged concentrations for nickel (Ni);
-   annual averaged concentrations for benzo[a]pyrene (BaP).
This document addresses competent authorities, research institutions, consultants, or other bodies responsible for the performance of air quality modelling when applied for assessment purposes.
NOTE   Fulfilment of MQO is either normative or informative, depending on the quality of information used to determine the uncertainty parameters and stringency factors set out in this document.
