Hi Chris, IPC LF Listservers,

I hope you are right,
 yet why did they word the WEEE Directive in this manner.

Here in the US I can't imagine that a recycler would use any of the
documentation. Major parts, a few legislated, and major obvious categories
(paperboard, clear glass, green glass, steel cans, brass, etc) where they
can make more money via separating is the way that I have seen these yards
work.

It seems like the EU's governing body had other intentions for the
various "reuse centres, treatment and recycling facilities" when they wrote
WEEE Article:11 $1.


Yours in Engineering, Dave

<I wouldn't go to great lengths on deconstruct docs as in most cases the
item will be shredded and any recycler worth their salt is not going to
need the info nor will have time to contact every mfr for the info.
<
The main items to document are the ones which will need to be removed
prior to shredding such as batteries and large 25x25 alu elec caps.>
