A contribution to future Critical Raw Materials Recycling
CEWASTE
released 10 May 2021
Today, recycling most of the products rich in critical raw materials (CRMs) is not commercially viable, with low and volatile CRM prices undermining efforts to improve European CRM recycling rates, which today are close to zero in most cases.
The report identifies gaps in standards and proposes an improved, fully tested certification scheme to collect, transport, process and recycle this waste, including tools to audit compliance.
