Abstract

The aim of this research is to analyse the performance of the extended producer responsibility model for the management of end-of-life tires (ELTs) in Ecuador that has been implemented since 2013. For this research, we conducted case studies of, and subsequently, a comparative analysis between, the ELT management system in Ecuador with respect to the ELT management models in Colombia and Brazil. Our findings show that although the programme implementation represented a significant advance in Ecuador's waste management system there are important challenges that should be considered in future adaptations of the programme. Among the measures that can be adopted to improve the ELT management system are the consolidation and stimulation of the market for products made from ELT waste; promotion of other productive sectors linked to the creation of new products and sectors that generate complementary products; enhancement of the generation, socialization and access to knowledge of the waste by-products for micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises; increase the tire consumer fee, known as 'Ecovalor' and improvement of the quality and availability of information and indicators regarding ELT management. In this sense, the experiences of Colombia and Brazil show important lessons for the Ecuadorian case.

报废轮胎的生态管理:厄瓜多尔案例的进展与挑战。
本研究旨在分析厄瓜多尔自 2013 年起实施的报废轮胎(ELT)管理生产者责任延伸模式的绩效。为此,我们对厄瓜多尔的 ELT 管理系统与哥伦比亚和巴西的 ELT 管理模式进行了案例研究和比较分析。我们的研究结果表明,尽管该计划的实施代表了厄瓜多尔废物管理系统的重大进步,但在未来对该计划进行调整时,仍应考虑到一些重要的挑战。为改善 ELT 管理系统可采取的措施包括:巩固和刺激由 ELT 废弃物制成的产品市场;促进与创造新产品和产生补充产品的部门相关联的其他生产部门;加强微型、小型和中型企业废弃物副产品的生产、社会化和知识获取;提高轮胎消费者费用(称为 "Ecovalor"),以及改善有关 ELT 管理的信息和指标的质量和可用性。从这个意义上讲,哥伦比亚和巴西的经验为厄瓜多尔的情况提供了重要的借鉴。
