| We are noticing the increasing number of vehicles around us each day. Going by the numbers, each year millions of vehicles are produced and sold. Vehicles use various chemicals which can be hazardous not just for human health but also for the nature. Also buying new vehicles will make the old vehicle waste. Thus, ELV Directive was enacted to meet this growing need of vehicle waste management. The hazardous End of life vehicle waste regulations apply to ELV compliance and affect how they should be handled and dealt with when they are processed. It also sets higher reuse, recycling and recovery targets and limits the use of hazardous substances in both new vehicles and replacement vehicle parts.
The objective of the ELV Directive is to prevent waste from end-of-life vehicles and promote the collection, re-use and recycling of their components to protect the environment. The Directive sets clear quantified targets for reuse, recycling and recovery of vehicles and their components and pushes producers to manufacture new vehicles also with a view to their recyclability. The hazardous waste regulations apply to end-of-life vehicles and affect how they should be handled and dealt with when they are processed.
