Collection, logistics & treatment requirements for WEEE - Part 4: Specification for the collection and logistics associated with WEEE
This Technical Specification applies to the following operations: collection, handling, sorting, storage, preparation for transport and transport of WEEE. It is applicable to all WEEE prior to arriving at the treatment facility or arriving at a preparation for re-use facility. This Technical Specification addresses all operators that perform collection and logistics operations. This technical specification does not cover treatment of WEEE. In case of treatment activities undertaken at collection or logistics facilities the Standard EN 50625-1 applies.
Exigences de collecte, logistique et traitement pour les déchets d’équipements électriques et électroniques (DEEE) - Partie 4: Spécifications relatives à la collecte et à la logistique associées aux DEEE
La présente Spécification technique s'applique aux processus suivants: collecte, manipulation, tri, entreposage, préparation en vue du transport et transport des DEEE. Elle s'applique à tous les DEEE avant leur arrivée à l'installation de traitement ou à leur arrivée à l'installation de préparation à la réutilisation. La présente Spécification technique s'adresse à tous les opérateurs exécutant les processus de collecte et de logistique. Elle ne couvre pas le traitement des DEEE. Si des activités liées au traitement sont réalisées sur des installations de collecte ou de logistique, la série de normes EN 50625 s'applique. NOTE 1 Les activités de traitement incluent toutes les formes de démantèlement, y compris le retrait des câbles, des composants, les cartes électroniques, par exemple, des compresseurs ou des parties d'équipement (des portes, par exemple). Le tri n'est pas considéré comme une activité de traitement tant que l'intégrité physique des DEEE est conservée. Les DEEE peuvent potentiellement entrer dans la chaîne logistique à l'un des emplacements identifiés ci-dessous. NOTE 2 La Spécification technique ne couvre pas les activités au niveau de l'installation de préparation à la réutilisation et de l'installation de traitement. Ces activités sont couvertes par la série EN 50625 et l'EN 50614. NOTE 3 La loi nationale peut spécifier les opérateurs autorisés à collecter les DEEE.

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

Commission and the European Free Trade Association.
Introduction
This European Technical Specification aims to assist organisations in:
— Achieving effective and efficient collection, handling, sorting, storage, preparation for transport
and onward transportation of WEEE in order to prevent pollution and minimize emissions;
— Preventing inappropriate disposal of WEEE;
— Assuring protection of the environment and human health and safety;
— Providing optimal conditions for increased preparing for re-use activities in order to increase the
useful lifespan of products;
— Preventing the delivery of WEEE to operators whose operations fail to comply with the
European Standard EN 50625-series and/or EN 50574-1;
— Establish a level playing field for all operators performing WEEE collection and logistics
processes.
NOTE 1 A further consequence of this specification is that it supports the requirement for notification of cross
boundary waste transport according to Regulation 1013/2006/EC or Regulation 1418/2007/EC in order to avoid
illegal (cross boundary) shipments of WEEE.
This European Technical Specification supports the objectives of the Community's environment
policy. These aim to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the environment, protect human
health and utilize natural resources prudently and rationally. That policy is based on the
precautionary principle and the maxims that preventive action to minimize environmental damage
should, where possible, be rectified at source and the polluter should pay.
This European Technical Specification contains requirements applicable to the collection, handling,
sorting, storage and transport of all types of WEEE. It is part of a set of standards covering general
and particular treatment of WEEE and preparing for re-use.
This European Technical Specification has been prepared in order to support European legislation
and so uses some of the terms defined in European law. In order to ensure that the definitions used
in this specification are identical to those defined by law these terms are identified as 'void',
indicating that this specification does not contain a definition, and a 'Note to entry' that identifies
which law contains the legal definition and the term as defined in that law.
This European Technical Specification contains requirements applicable to the collection and
logistics of all types WEEE. In the future it will be supported by other standards covering
requirements on the preparing for re-use.
NOTE 2 A standard covering Preparing for Re-use is currently being written, when published it will have the
reference EN 50614.
1 Scope
This Technical Specification applies to the following processes: collection, handling, sorting, storage,
preparation for transport and transport of WEEE. It is applicable to all WEEE prior to arriving at the
treatment facility or arriving at a preparing for re-use facility.
This Technical Specification addresses all operators that perform collection and logistics processes.
This Technical Specification does not cover treatment of WEEE. In the case of treatment activities
undertaken at collection or logistics facilities, the EN 50625-series applies.
NOTE 1 Treatment activities include any form of dismantling, including the removal of cabling, components,
such as circuit boards, compressors or parts of equipment (e.g. doors). Sorting is not considered a treatment
activity as long as no physical alterations to the WEEE take place.
WEEE can potentially enter the logistics chain at any of the identified locations below.
Figure 1 — The collection and logistics chain
NOTE 2 The Technical Specification does not cover activities at the preparing for re-use facility and the
treatment facility; these are covered in the EN 50625-series and prEN 50614.
NOTE 3 National law may specify which operators are allowed to collect WEEE.
