1. The Brazilian environmental standardization for electrical and electronic products Center for Information Technology Renato Archer – CTI Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovation – MCTI Campinas – SP – Brazil Center for Information Technology Renato Archer

2. ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS IN ELECTRONICS LIFE CYCLE Changes in the industrial model Manufacturing Natural resources Distribution Use Final disposal Recycling Disposal Take Back Disassembly Re-Use Recycling Disposal New processes adding value in Brazilian supply chain, due to the National Policy on Solid Waste

3. STANDARDIZATION AND NPSW Standardization Promote the optimization of the economy, taking into account the functional conditions, safety and environmental requirements throughout the product life cycle Environmental standardization Essential to implement the National Policy on Solid Waste

4. IEC / ABNT International Electrotechnical Commission Is the world´s leading organization that prepares and publishes international standards for all electrical, electronic and related technologies. The Brazilian Association of Technical Standards Is the organization of technical standardization in Brazil and the exclusive Brazilian representative for the international and regional entities: ISO (International Organization for Standardization) IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) COPANT (Pan American Technical Standards Commission) AMN (Mercosur Standardization Association)

5. IEC TC 111 /ABNT CE 111 IEC TC 111 – International environmental standardization for electrical and electronic products and systems Objective: To prepare necessary guidelines, basic and horizontal standards, including technical reports, in the environmental area. ABNT CE 03:111.01 – Brazilian environmental standardization for electrical and electronic products and systems Objective: Providing the Brazilian standards for environmentally friendly electronics, acting as a mirror of the IEC TC 111. Subjects: Ecodesign, material declaration, test methods, cleaner production, recycling, etc.

6. THE LAW STRUCTURE Governmental Decision Technical Decision ABNT National Policy on Solid Waste Quality requirementsStandards CE-111

7. ABNT CE 111 CE- 03:111.01 Produce Brazilian standards equivalent to IEC TC 111 standards Meet the demand of Brazil´s environmental standards Around 60 companies contribute to CE 111, as well as researchers and development centers, universities and government institutions

8. ONGOING PROJECTS Standards for the determination of levels of the RoHS substances into electrical and electronic equipment Guidelines for the provision of information about the end-of-life, necessary to calculate the recyclability rate of electrical and electronic equipment

9. RESULTS FROM ABNT CE 111 BRAZILIAN STANDARDS EQUIVALENT TO IEC TC 111 Environmentally conscious design Management system for hazardous substances in products and electrical and electronic components Guidance for evaluation of products with respect to substance - use restrictions in electrical and electronic products Environmental information on electrical and electronic equipment Material declaration for products of and for the electrotechnical industry NATIONAL STANDARD UNDER PUBLICATION Waste electrical and electronic equipment – Requirements for the activity of reverse manufacturing (for recyclers)

10. MOTIVATIONS FOR THE BRAZILIAN REQUIREMENTS TO RECYCLERS The requirements for reverse logistics systems for electronic equipments are essential to implement the National Policy on Solid Waste Encourage the development of competence in electronics recycling, objecting to reduce damage to the environment Ensure that processes adopted are consistent with best practices in waste management, avoiding incorrect destination of materials Ensure occupational health and safety of those involved in the processes of electronics recycling

11. BRAZILIAN REQUIREMENTS FOR REVERSE MANUFACTURING Environmental Protection Occupational health and safety Traceability of electronic waste Data Security The fundamentals of the Brazilian requirements for recycling of waste electrical and electronic equipments

12. FUTURE VISION – ENVIRONMENTAL LABELING Worldwide Brazilian label

13. FUTURE VISION – REQUIREMENTS FOR LABELING Qualification and training National database for Life Cycle Assessment Data collection Environmental labeling Standards

14. FUTURE VISION – SUPPORTING OTHER COUNTRIES IEC TC 111 COPANT (Pan American) AMN (Mercosur) ABNT CE 111
