PLAST2bCLEANED: Recycling process for Waste Electrical & Equipment

The overall aim of PLAST2bCLEANED is to develop a human and environmental safe recycling process for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) plastics in a technically feasible and economically viable manner.

Three material loops will be closed: (1) polymer; (2), bromine fraction; and (3) antimony trioxide fraction.

Technology

In PLAST2bCLEANED, Raman spectroscopy is applied for the pre-processing step of the recycling process, in order to improve the current sorting process of Waste Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE)

“PLAST2bCLEANED first assessments indicate that the new recycling techniques are economic viable and more sustainable compared to the current treatments.”

The overall aim of PLAST2bCLEANED is to develop a human and environmental safe recycling process for Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) plastics in a technically feasible and economically viable manner.

Three material loops will be closed: (1) polymer; (2), bromine fraction; and (3) antimony trioxide fraction.

Increased purity and/or desirable quality of secondary raw materials

Increased recycling rate for secondary materials and reduced landfill and incineration of wastes.

Reducted risk of retaining hazardous substances in recycled materials

Implementation of the EU Circular Economy Action Plan and the 7th Enviroment Action Programme.

The Commission Strategy on Plastics in a Circular Economy and to the implementation of the SPIRE PPP Roadmap.
