description | Currently, to ensure the sustainable development of any economy, a very important role is
represented by the transition to the circular economy, which manifests itself differently by
sectors and types of products. Considering the need to expand the circular economy, a special
role is played by the production and consumption of electrical and electronic equipment. The
objective of this article is to identify the factors that can influence the collection of electronic
and electrical equipment at the European Union level. The methods used are statistical and
econometric ones. Based on a panel regression, the study shows the specifics of the collection
of electrical and household appliances, depending on several factors, such as the type and
size of the appliances, the amount of electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) placed on the
market, and the legislative measures taken at the European level. The main results highlight
the degree of collection of electrical and electronic equipment according to its type and size;
the highest degree of collection being recorded for household appliances. The originality of
the paper consists in the identification of the characteristics of the collection of waste
electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE), using the econometric method, the research
being useful not only for the parties involved in the collection of waste electrical and
electronic equipment (WEEE), but also for the decision makers, in order to improve the
collection policies for this equipment. |
