'Eco Efficient Recovery of Plastics from Automotive Applications'

摘要

The new European End-of-life-vehicles (ELV) directives 2000/53/EC defines specific recovery, reuse and recycling targets for cars. In an eco-efficiency study, Oekoinstitut in Darmstadt/Germany analysed and evaluated the recycling - and recovery options for seven different plastic parts (ranging from 200 g up to 3,1 kg) from ELVs. The study intends to provide a transparent evaluation tool for the various technology options in terms of environmental impact and corresponding costs. The results are displayed in eco-efficiency portfolios. The background data and the resulting portfolios were reviewed by a panel of independent peers. The study was commissioned by the Association of Plastics Manufactures (APME) in Europe.
