Abstract

Every year, in Europe, End-of-Life Vehicles (ELVs) constitute about 8–9milliontonnes of waste, that must be properly managed. Directive 2000/53/EC fixed new European targets for vehicle recovery (i.e., recycling plus energy recovery): 85% of recovery, of which 80% recycled or reused, by 2006, rising to 95% and 85% respectively by 2015. In order to comply with this Directive, both car producers and ELVs treatment plants must promptly tackle this issue.
