Through the TaDWIR (Towards a Decentralized Waste Management Integrated Response) program by UNDP and European Union, we teamed up with ELARD to help tackle this challenge. Here’s what we focused on:
〰 Understanding the Problem: We analyzed the types and amounts of e-waste and batteries.
〰Developing Solutions: We proposed a treatment approach and outlined a financial plan for effective waste management.
〰Establishing an EPR System: We developed a framework for an Extended
〰Producer Responsibility (EPR) system specific to e-waste.
〰Creating Oversight: We conceptualized a ProducerResponsibilityOrganization (PRO) to manage and regulate waste processes.
Additionally, our team at BlackForest Solutions GmbH contributed to drafting the legalframework for Lebanon’s upcoming EPR Decree, moving the country closer to sustainable waste solutions.
Check out our report to explore the current e-waste situation and our proposed solution for a comprehensive collection, consolidation, and treatment system, along with its cost analysis. 🌍
