摘要

本文报告了为确定电气和电子设备(EEE)再利用的一般和特定障碍而进行的研究。我们对来自整个价值链的专家进行了30次半结构化访谈,包括产品设计师、制造商、用户和废物管理人员,以及政策制定者和学者。这些访谈试图检查在英国重复使用的感知和实际障碍。确定了限制电气和电子设备再使用机会和实例的三个相互关联的因素,突出表明存在着提高再使用水平的系统障碍和消费者障碍。它们是:生产者的不情愿,不合适的收集基础设施和文化问题。总体而言,该论文表明,电气和电子部门的低水平再利用是复杂且相互关联的障碍的结果。理解这些联系可以为政策制定者从多方利益相关者的角度解决障碍提供方向,从而有可能改善重用的机会。如果英国要成功地走向资源高效的循环经济,增加再利用的实例是必不可少的。

Assessing barriers to reuse of electrical and electronic equipment, a UK perspective

This paper reports on research undertaken to identify generic and specific barriers to reuse of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE). Thirty semi-structured interviews were conducted with experts from across the value chain including product designers, manufacturers, users and waste managers as well policy makers and academics. The interviews sought to examine perceived and real barriers to reuse in the UK. Three inter-connected factors that limit opportunities and instances of reuse of electrical and electronic equipment were identified, highlighting that both systemic and consumer barriers to increasing levels of reuse exist. These are: producer reluctance, unsuitable collection infrastructure and cultural issues. Overall, the paper shows that low levels of reuse in the electrical and electronic sector are a result of complex and interlinked barriers. Understanding these connections offers the potential to improve the opportunities for reuse, by providing direction for policy makers to address barriers from a multi stakeholder perspective. Increasing instances of reuse is essential if the UK is to successfully move towards a resource efficient, circular economy.
