What is the material recycling level of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) in the EU28, in terms of absolute streams (quantity)?

Material and Substance Flow Analysis (M/SFA) - MethodsAndTools
Role: Material Flow Analysis can be used to calculate the generation of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equip-ment (WEEE) in the EU28. The method needs as input data the consumption of EEE in the EU28 over the past years, the life span of EEE and the composition of EEE. The last information is needed to calculate the mineral and element flows that are contained in the waste.
Europroms User’s guide. Prodcom data - Data
Role: Europroms (combined production and trade statistics) enables the calculation of final consumption of Electrical and Electronic Equip-ment (EEE) in the EU28. Together with the life span of products and the composition of products in terms of minerals and elements, this information can be used to calculate the WEEE generation (inclusive material content) by using Material Flow Analysis (MFA)
Environment data centre on waste - Eurostat - Data
Role: Eurostat waste statistics may provide an answer to the sub questions 'How much WEEE is collected in the EU28' and 'What is the fate of WEEE in the EU28, and, more specifically, how much of it is entering a material recovery process?'. This information together with the results from the MFA, i.e. data on the generation of WEEE, enables to estimate WEEE generation and content and fate.
Urban Mine Knowledge Data Platform (EU-UMKDP -ProSUM) - Data
Role: The ProSUM project aims to provide an inventory of urban mines, particularly of critical raw materials, as present in WEEE, ELVs, waste batteries and mining wastes. This information can be used for answering sub-question 'What is the composition of WEEE, in terms of component content of products and mineral/metal content of components?'.
