| Abstract |
In 2014 the European Commission published a list of 20 critical raw-materials (CRMs). Therefore, it is important to apply circular economy together with the zero-waste strategy. Waste coming from Electric and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) contains significant amounts of Critical Raw Material (CRMs). It is one of the most important waste categories that needs to be treated properly due to its important content in valuable materials including CRMs, and high content of hazardous materials. Therefore, WEEE equipment dismantling, requires correct procedures and specialized personnel, ensuring safe and efficient processing of waste. Project RECDEV - Innovative 3D Training Platform for recycling of WEEE (www.recdev.eu) is developing an innovative 3D training platform, Information Computer Technology (ICT)-based, self-and distance learning, familiarizing learners/users with the disassembly of Electrical and Electronic Devices and the identification of types and qualities of materials embodied. The platform is developed based on a methodology that uses a 3D software application and integrates 50 selected Electric and Electronic Devices. Each scenario has been depicted in such a way that extensive information about the materials contained is displayed. Based on the "learning by doing" methodology, trainees will be able to interact with 3D WEEE by "digitally" disassembling devices and have access to information for each part such as included materials: toxicity, recycling, potential reuse and up-scaling. 12 months will be devoted to pilot testing in Recycling Centers in 5 countries. The participation of real users/technicians as well as management personnel to the pilot implementation phase, will ensure real, practical results and conclusions, that are going to be used in order to cover actual users' needs in practice. |
