Annex I Method for the calculation of the recycling efficiency of the recycling process of waste batteries and accumulators
United Kingdom
- 1The recycling efficiency of a recycling process is calculated as follows:
- 2The recycling efficiency of a recycling process is calculated separately for the following waste battery types:
- 3The recycling efficiency is calculated on the basis of the overall chemical composition (at elemental/compound level) of the input and output fractions. The following applies in respect of the input fraction:
- 4Division 4
- 5The mass of output fractions accounting for recycling is the mass, on a dry weight basis, of the elements or compounds contained in fractions resulting from the recycling of waste batteries and accumulators per calendar year [in tonnes]. The following may be, inter alia, accounted for output fractions:
- 6The mass of input fractions entering the battery recycling process is the mass of collected waste batteries and accumulators on a dry weight basis entering the recycling process per calendar year [in tonnes], including:
- 7Division 7
- 8Division 8
- 9Division 9
