Zusammenfassung, Abstract
Electrical equipment, such as those collected at municipal collection points or as input for treatment plants usually are a mix of a variety of different kinds of devices, types and models. Most of the devices are of a very complex structure, with casing consisting of mechanical parts and electronic components. These complexities make it difficult to determine the material composition of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) composite inputs and make it impossible to determine in practice, the content of certain materials or substances. The project aims at developing a method, database and software that supports and facilitates process selection and facility planning in the recycling of WEEE. With the database it is possible to model different variants of the recycling process. This negates the necessity of extensive pilot plant tests, simulations for the implementation of different input compositions and evaluates the market while taking into account quality-related values.
