Ecolec’s needs: key features required
• Improve WEEE collection & Reduce WEEE leaks• Use of sensor applications to ensure traceability through whole reverse supply
chain, featuring:
– Tagging and tracking (RFID + BC)– Identification and characterization through RFID readers– Sorting and Channeling to appropriate treatment facilities– Traceability by unit picture and video included– Automation of incidence management, certification and invoicing– Simplification of reporting– Standardization of information– Integration in Company’s ERP system

(some) key issues found during deployment phase
• Tailoring and adaptation: “one size doesn’t fit all”
• Privacy Act (LOPD)• Engagement of Waste Management Chain Training and Communication
• Follow‐up• Reliability• Unexpected issues

Tracking WEEE in practiceTracked information: WEEE type, weight Origin, destination, Certificates and proofs (e.g. signatures, videos) Picture and status e.g. scavenging “track and trace” Location and travelManagement of incidences: “missings”, idle times, inconsistencies (i.e. weights), potential malpractices (or frauds) Brand and model (optional)
