CEN/TR 14520:20074 Introduction The methods set out in this Technical Report are both capable of giving realistic results in the relevant circumstances. Experience over time with the results

13、will indicate the levels of performance that are being achieved. CEN/TR 14520:20075 1 Scope This Technical Report gives methods of assessing the performance of a reuse system related to the proportion of reused packaging in use. This may be measured by: the average number of rotations during a calcu

14、lation period and the lifetime; or the reuse ratio. The choice of method will vary according to the type of reuse system and information available. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 trip transfer of packaging, from filling/loadi

15、ng to emptying/unloading. A trip can be part of a rotation 2.2 rotation cycle undergone by reusable packaging from filling/loading to filling/loading. A rotation will always contain a trip 2.3 population total number of a packaging type, empty or filled, in that whole reuse system 2.4 claiming compa

16、ny packer/filler who is making a claim of reusable for a type of packaging, in the circumstances of its intended use 2.5 reuse ratio ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the number of movements of reused packaging to the number of movements of all the packaging at the measurement point (see definiti

17、on 2.7) over the calculation period (see definition 2.6) 2.6 calculation period period over which the number of trips or reuse ratio is calculated NOTE This should be of adequate duration to smooth out the effects of seasonal variation, product lifetime, packaging inputs and other factors which can

18、affect the calculation. 2.7 measurement point point in the rotation loop at which the information for the calculation is gathered NOTE Examples of some possible measurement points are given in 4.2. 2.8 newly manufactured packaging newly purchased packaging entering the system for the first time to i

19、ncrease the population or replace all types of losses CEN/TR 14520:20076 2.9 system adjustment increase or decrease of population of a packaging type due to market fluctuation 2.10 system losses all types of losses of packaging from the system 2.11 closed loop system system in which reusable packagi

20、ng is circulated by a company or a co-operating group of companies 2.12 open loop system system in which reusable packaging circulates amongst unspecified companies 2.13 hybrid system system consisting of two parts: a) reusable packaging, remaining with the end user, for which there exists no redist

21、ribution system leading to commercial refilling; b) one way packaging, used as an auxiliary product to transport the contents to the reusable packaging 2.14 lifetime period from the first use of the packaging until it is no longer in use and becomes waste 3 Methods of calculation 3.1 Open and closed

22、 loop systems 3.1.1 Principle The performance of a reuse system can be evaluated by calculating either the average number of rotations (see definition 2.2) or the reuse ratio. The population figure needs to be known accurately to perform the calculation of the average number of rotations. In the cas

23、es where this value can not be known, which includes most open loop systems, only the reuse ratio can be calculated. NOTE The packer/filler making the calculation will require the co-operation of all other partners in the system for that product. See EN 13429:2004, 5.1. 3.1.2 Calculation of average

24、number of rotations in the system during the calculation period The simple equation to determine the average number of rotations of packaging in the system during the calculation period is: tsppPQN = where Npis the average number of rotations during the calculation period; CEN/TR 14520:20077 Qspis t

25、he total number of movements of packaging through the measurement point during the calculation period; NOTE 1 For pool systems this is the sum of all the packaging from all the packer/fillers. Pt is the average population during the calculation period. Qspcan often be easily calculated from the numb

26、er of despatches or output from the packer/filler etc. However Ptis rarely directly known and has to be calculated. A simplified version of this calculation is: 222adjlossnewintPPPPP += where Ptis the average population during the calculation period; Pinis the population at the start of the calculat

27、ion period; Pnewis the total of newly manufactured packaging entering the system during the calculation period; Plossis the system losses during the calculation period; Padjis the system adjustments during the calculation period. NOTE 2 System adjustments take place when packaging is deliberately wi

28、thdrawn from the system, for instance in the case of a fall in demand. Pnew, Plossand Padjare divided by two to give an approximate average over the calculation period. Where possible a more accurate average should be used. Pnewand Padjare often known, however Plossgenerally has to be assessed. Unde

29、r long term steady state conditions, Plossis approximately equal to Pnew. 3.1.3 Calculation of reuse ratio 100=spreuserQQR where Rris the reuse ratio; Qreuseis the total number of movements of reused packages through the measurement point during the calculation period; Qspis the total number of move

30、ments of packaging through the measurement point during the calculation period. In systems where only the reuse ratio can be calculated it should be noted that any percentage greater than zero is evidence of reuse. CEN/TR 14520:20078 3.1.4 Calculation of average number of rotations in the system dur

31、ing the packaging lifetime With long term experience, the average percentage loss per rotation and the average age of the population can be estimated. By multiplying the average number of rotations per year by the average age of the population an approximate figure for the number of rotations per li

32、fetime can be calculated as follows: NI= Ny Aawhere NI is the approximate number of rotations per lifetime; Ny is the average number of rotations per year; Aais the average age of population. The percentage loss per calculation period L%can be calculated by: L%=tlossPP 100 Ptis the average populatio

33、n during the calculation period; Plossis the system losses during the calculation period; For estimating the percentage losses per rotation, the calculation period could be chosen to be one rotation. The inverse of the average percentage loss (L%) per rotation, gives an approximation of the number o

34、f rotations for the unit of packaging per lifetime. NIcan be calculated by NI= %L1003.2 Hybrid system In a hybrid system the only quantities which are known are the number of reusable packages sold and the number of refills sold over the calculation period. This ratio can only provide an approximati

35、on to the reuse ratio. It is therefore not appropriate to attempt to calculate the reuse ratio for the reusable component in a hybrid system. 4 Factors influencing the calculation 4.1 Selection of calculation period This should be of adequate duration and have a suitable start date to smooth out the

36、 effects of seasonal variation, product lifetime, packaging inputs and other factors which may affect the calculation. It is important that the period and start and end points chosen are used consistently for all future calculations of the ratio. CEN/TR 14520:20079 4.2 Selection of measurement point

37、 The measurement point should be chosen to provide the greatest amount of information for the calculation. Examples are: point of sale; point of filling; completion of refurbishment; warehousing; third party warehousing; or any other convenient point in the system. The measurement point should be ch

38、osen so that it allows the differentiation of new and used packaging. It is important that the measurement point chosen is used consistently for all future calculations of the ratio. NOTE The measurement point is a point in the cycle, not necessarily a single physical location. 4.3 Market fluctuatio

39、n and product lifecycle A careful assessment of the state of the market for the product should be made and also for the development in that market of the product. These factors will influence the conclusions on the results of the calculations. CEN/TR 14520:200710 Annex A (informative) Trips and rota

40、tions The concepts of trips and rotations in reuse terms are defined in 3.3 and 3.4 of EN 13429:2004 and form the basis for any determination of effectiveness of any given reuse system.
