Abstract

This paper provides an overview of waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE, e-waste) collection and recycling system in Romania. Although progresses have been registered in the field, Romania is facing serious problems regarding WEEE management which affect the achievement of targets set by the European Union. In this context, the paper aims to highlight the underlying causes of the inefficient management of WEEE for subsequent identification of the necessary measures by the experts and practitioners in the field.
