EN 15343:2007 (E) 4 Introduction Recycling of plastic waste is one type of material recovery process intended to save resources (virgin raw materials, water,
19、 and energy), while minimising harmful emissions into air, water and soil as well as any impacts on human health. The environmental impact of recycling has to be assessed over the whole life cycle of the recycling system (from the waste generation point to the disposal of final residues). To ensure
20、that recycling constitutes the best environmental option for treating the available waste, some prerequisites preferably should be met: recycling scheme being contemplated should generate lower environmental impacts than alternative recovery options; existing or potential market outlets should be id
21、entified that will secure a sustainable industrial recycling operation; collection and sorting schemes should be properly designed to deliver recyclable plastics waste fractions fitting reasonably well with the available recycling technologies and with the (changing) needs of the identified market o
22、utlets, preferably at minimum costs for society. This standard has been produced in accordance with the guidance produced by CEN on Environmental Aspects and in accordance with CEN/TR 15353 Plastics Recycled plastics Guidelines for the development of standards for recycled plastics. NOTE CEN/TR 1535
23、3 considers the general environmental aspects which are specific to the recycling process. Legislation, international standards or end users may require traceability of the constituent components of products in order to allow better product control or to locate and withdraw unwanted material and/or
24、defective products from the market. The purpose of this standard is to describe the necessary procedures for mechanical recycling that are needed for products that have been manufactured completely or in part from recycled plastics and need proof of traceability. It will enable producers to use the
25、recycled materials with confidence and it will provide the end users with a basis for their acceptance. However it is often impossible to trace back each individual product at the end user stage and to check the use of the product through its life. Consequently products are out of industrial control
26、 for a period of time. It is possible that during this period contamination with other materials may occur that could affect the products suitability for recycling into the intended applications. In that case the recyclers have two options. Either their input control or sorting equipment guarantee t
27、hat contaminants do not enter the recycling process or the recyclers must use a qualified process in which the pollution and/or mixed materials are removed to such levels that they do not affect the intended application for the recycled material. In addition, during processing and use of the origina
28、l product, chemical or structural changes in the material, may have occurred. In that case the recyclers can recycle into new materials with reduced properties, or they can try to repair the material damage, or they enhance the material properties by addition of virgin components or additives. A rec
29、ycling process should be designed such that contaminants or material damage that might have an influence on the intended application are removed or repaired to such an extent that they will not negatively influence the suitability of the recycled material for the intended application. If such contam
30、ination or damage cannot be removed or repaired during recycling, the purchase and/or EN 15343:2007 (E) 5 control of the incoming materials should guarantee that contaminated or damaged material does not enter the process in sufficient quantity to affect the properties of the recyclate. Controls of
31、the input material, of the recycling process and of the material produced are the prime instruments that determine the quality of recycled products. If the origin of all the component parts of a product, virgin as well as recyclates, is known it is possible to calculate the recycled content of the p
32、roduct, a value which may be required by customers or regulators. EN 15343:2007 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the procedures needed for the traceability of recycled plastics. This gives the basis for the calculation procedure for the recycled content of a product. This standard is a
33、pplicable without prejudice to any existing legislation. NOTE The procedures are needed to formulate or describe the traceability, while the traceability can be used as a basis for calculating the recycled content 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the ap

38、, the terms and definitions given in EN ISO 472:2001 and those prepared in CEN/TR 15353:2007 and the following apply. 3.1 qualified recycling process recycling process producing material which meets the requirements for the intended applications 3.2 challenge test test of a recycling process in whic
39、h purposely specified contaminants or damaged materials are introduced in prescribed quantities to judge the ability of the recycling process to produce material with certain specified properties EN 15343:2007 (E) 7 3.3 recycled content percentage by weight of recycled material in a product 4 Method
40、ology and procedures 4.1 Control of input material The collection and sorting schemes shall be properly designed to deliver recyclable plastics waste fractions fitting reasonably well with the available recycling technologies and with the (changing) needs of the identified market outlets, preferably
41、 at minimum costs. Control of the input materials shall be carried out according to EN 15347. Batch identification shall be required. Collectors and sorters shall keep records on incoming and sorted products as set out in Table 1. NOTE Waste plastics are collected in different ways depending on thei
42、r origin. Household packaging can be collected via kerbside collection of specific fractions, by bring systems, where used products are deposited in containers by users, or by deposit systems. The collected waste is often concentrated at sorting centres where it can be sorted according to its colour
43、, previous function or chemical composition. End of life products such as electronic equipment or vehicles are returned by the consumer to the supplier, then sent to specialised companies for dismantling and ultimate recovery of the plastics content. During demolition of civil constructions, plastic
44、s-containing parts are separated out and sent to specialised companies for further sorting. Production waste is collected from the producers and converters, often by dealers who may granulate or otherwise concentrate it. 4.2 Control of the recyclate production process Control of the recycling proces
45、s is required to guarantee proper functioning in line with good manufacturing practice. This will include: recording the process variables; quality control testing of the products delivered by the process; batch identification of the output. For specific applications, challenge tests will be require
46、d to demonstrate that the process is capable of delivering products that meet the requirements of the application, for example food applications, automotive. 4.3 Plastics recyclate characterisation In order that the purchaser of the recyclate may have confidence in the quality of the product, the su
47、pplier shall provide characteristics of the batch of recyclate following the relevant standard, e.g. EN 15342, EN 15344, EN 15345, EN 15346 or EN 15348. 4.4 Traceability To ensure the necessary traceability according to the intended application, the supplier of the recyclate shall provide data for e
48、ach stage described above (4.1, 4.2 and 4.3). See also Table 1. All procedures for the identification and the recording of the data shall be appropriately documented and recorded. EN 15343:2007 (E) 8 The purchaser shall ensure that the level of traceability is suitable for the intended application.
49、NOTE Since traceability of each individual item of waste is not realistic, and not necessary for qualified processes, the traceability should start from the sorting centers for household waste and end of life products. For industrial waste, traceability should start from the plastic producer or converter where the waste originates. The sorting centers and the recyclers should achieve traceability by giving each batch produced an identifier (e.g. serial number date cod
