  1. Electronic Product Take-back and Recycling in Hungary Zsolt ISTVÁN Ernő Garamvölgyi Richárd Ladányi Péter Chrabák Bay Zoltán Foundation for Applied ResearchInstitute of Logistics and Production Systems

  2. Bay Zoltán Foundation is established in 1993. Zoltán BAY 1900-1992

  3. Projects in recycling of end-of-life electronics Recycling of household equipment with emphasis of reuse options, INCO-Copernicus RECAP, EU DG XII/C financed international project, 1997-1999. ECOLIFE, Closing the Loop of Electr(on)ic Products and Domestic Appliances From Product Planning to End-of-Life Technologies, Implementation Phase in the Industrial and Materials Technologies (Brite-EuRam) programme for Thematic networks, corresponding partner, 2000-2002. ECOLIFE II, ECO-efficient LIFE cycle Technologies From Products to Service Systems, Thematic Network for RTD Co-ordination and other Networking Activities within the Specific Programme “Promoting Competitive and Sustainable Growth” KA 1 “Innovative Products, Processes and Organisation”, associated partner, 2002-2006. Collection and environment friendly dismantling of end-of-life electronics in Szinva NET Ltd – Supported by OM-KfHÁ (Ministry of Education, R&D) within Environmental Technical Development Found, 2000-2002. Development of the first draft of the ministry decree on WEEE and the restriction of use of hazardous substances in electronic products in Hungary and study on the economic and social aspects, Made for Ministry of Environment with co-ordination Cowi Hungary Ltd., 2001

  4. Environmentally Sound Recycling of Electronic ProductsNational R&D Project • aim:to build up electronic product dismantling site considering reuse and recycling • partners: • Szinva Net Kft. (Packard Bell-NEC official dealer) • BAY-LOGI • financial supporter: Ministry of Education, R&D division • Time scale: September 2000. - October 2002. • Budget: 300.000 €

  5. Main topics of the project • Investigation of legislation concepts • Identification of product types and amounts • Material content of EE products • Logistics, management questions • Dismantling and recycling issues

  6. Current financing

  7. Legislation / Costs • Estimated national costs • investments 8M € • administration 200 k€/year • collection, treatment 1.5 M€/year Waste Management Law National Legislation EU Directives WEEE / RoHS • Planed decree on WEEE • decree of the minister responsible for environment • producers and importers are responsible for products • products are grouped, quotas are defined for take back

  8. Electronic products in the households

  9. Amount of discarded electronic products

  10. Discarded electronic products North Hungarian Region 16% of the nation

  11. Average material content of PCs

  12. Average material content of TV sets

  13. Average material content of PCBs

  14. Average metal content (chemical elements) of PCBs

  15. Collection methods WEEE is collected within the municipal waste collection system WEEE

  16. Collection methods Wasteyard Municipal waste WEEE Refrigerators Collection of selected WEEE by specialised enterprises

  17. Collection methods Wasteyard Municipal waste WEEE Refrigerators Individual collection and transportation to wasteyards • inhabitants • repair shops • users

  18. Technology

  19. Layout IDE Mother-board PC cards glass metal PCB waste plastics Monitor dismantling

  20. Testing workbench for PC parts

  21. Dismantling of CRTs

  22. Economic evaluation - Cost analysis of a plant

  23. Economic Evaluation - Revenues of dismantlingPCs (estimation) ca. 1 € = 260 HUF

  24. Economic Evaluation - Revenues of dismantlingMonitors, TV sets (estimation) ca. 1 € = 260 HUF Inicirate or landfill of hazardous waste is ca.0,5 €/kg

  25. Conclusions • There is not any take back system for WEEE from households • It is not possible to reach the 4 kg take back quota by end of 2006 • There is not enough capacity of dismantlers, recyclers • Without legislation background the financing will be not solved • The Hungarian WEEE decree will be come out in April 2004 • BAYLOGI made a reference for environmental sound solution
