PD CLC/TS 50625-4 is the fourth part of an International Standard on Collection, logistics & treatment requirements for WEEE. PD CLC/TS 50625-4 specifies the technical requirements and collection and logistic operators for storing, transporting and collecting these WEE.
PD CLC/TS 50625-4 applies to the following processes:
This Technical Specification standard addresses all operators that perform collection and logistics processes. PD CLC/TS 50625-4 does not cover the treatment of WEEE. In the case of treatment activities undertaken at collection or logistics facilities, then 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 the equipment (e.g., doors). Sorting is not considered a treatment activity as long as no physical alterations to the WEEE take place.
PD CLC/TS 50625-4 on Collection, logistics & treatment requirements for WEEE is useful for:
Waste from electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) is used for recycling electronic waste. WEEE helps in reducing pollution which is generated from outdated and waste electronic equipment.
PD CLC/TS 50625-4 specifies the technical requirement, collection and logistic operator which is useful in understanding the handling, transporting and storing of WEEE.
By using PD CLC/TS 50625-4 best practice guidance, you can separate WEE from other wastes. This helps in adopting safe practices to reduce pollution. With the help of PD CLC/TS 50625-4, you can set up a documented process to identify and separate WEEE items, which are potentially suitable for reuse.
By adopting PD CLC/TS 50625-4, you can avoid emissions of pollutants while handling and storing WEEE. This ensures safety of your environment.
