Scrap yards and ELV and WEEE treatment centres pose low environmental risks if managed properly. This is reflected in Waste Manegement Licences. For the shredders, there might be a more persuasive case for inclusion: particular problems with feedstock separation and a more rigorous permitting system might be appropriate

| ANNEX III: requirements set by the ELV and WEEE Directives, concerning minimisation of environmental impact.
ELV Directive (2000/53/EC)
ANNEX I
Minimum technical requirements for treatment in accordance with Article 6(1) and (3)
1. Sites for storage (including temporary storage) of end-of-life vehicles prior to their treatament:
- impermeable surfaces for appropriate areas with the provision of spillage collection facilities, decanters and cleanser-degeasers,
- equipment for the treatment of water, including rainwater, in compliance with health and environmental regulations.
2. Sites for treatment:
- impermeable surfaces for appropriate areas with the provision of spillage collection facilities, decanters and cleanser-degreasers,
- appropriate storage for dismantled spare parts, including impermeable storage for oil-contaminated spare parts,
- appropriate containers for storage of batteries (with electrolyte neutralisation on site or elsewhere), filters and PCB/PCT-containing condensers,
- appropriate storage tanks for the segregated storage of end-of-life vehicle fluids: fuel, motor oil, gearbox oil, transmission oil, hydraulic oil, cooling liquids, antifreeze, brake fluids, battery acids, air-conditioning system fluids and any other fluid contained in the end-of-life vehicle,
- equipment for the treatment of water, including rainwater, in compliance with health and environmental regulations,
- appropriate storage for used tyres, including the prevention of fire hazards and excessive stockpiling.
3. Treatment operations for depollution of end-of-life vehicles:
- removal of batteries and liquified gas tanks,
- removal or neutralisation of potential explosive components, (e.g. air bags),
- removal and separate collection and storage of fuel, motor oil, transmission oil, gearbox oil, hydraulic oil, cooling liquids, antifreeze, brake fluids, air-conditioning system fluids and any other fluid contained in the end-of-life vehicle, unless they are necessary for the re-use of the parts concerned,
- removal, as far as feasible, of all components identified as containing mercury.
4. Treatment operations in order to promote recycling:
- removal or catalysts,
- removal of metal components containing copper, aluminium and magnesium if these metals are not segregated in the shredding process,
- removal of tyres and large plastic components (bumpers, dashboard, fluid containers, etc), if these materials are not segregated in the shredding process in such a way that they can be effectively recycled as materials,
- removal of glass.
5. Storage operations are to be carried out avoiding damage to components containing fluids or to recoverable components and spare parts.
WEEE Directive (2002/96/EC)
.ANNEX III
Technical requirements in accordance with Article 6(3)
1. Sites for storage (including temporary storage) of WEEE prior to their treatment (without prejudice to the requirements of Council Directive 1999/31/EC):
- impermeable surfaces for appropriate areas with the provision of spillage collection facilities and, where appropriate, decanters and cleanser-degreasers,
- weatherproof covering for appropriate areas.
2. Sites for treatment of WEEE:
- balances to measure the weight of the treated waste,
- impermeable surfaces and waterproof covering for appropriate areas with the provision of spillage collection facilities and, where appropriate, decanters and cleanser-degreasers,
- appropriate storage for disassembled spare parts,
- appropriate containers for storage of batteries, PCBs/PCTs containing capacitors and other hazardous waste such as radioactive waste,
- equipment for the treatment of water in compliance with health and environmental regulations
Annex IV: Cost data for wet scrubber systems
The information below applies for wet scrubber systems of the spray tower type and is taken from [18].
The investment cost to treat a waste gas stream of 10000 Nm³/h with a relatively simple spray tower is 50 000 EUR, being 5000 EUR/1000Nm³. For other capacities a scaling factor to the power of 0.3 can be used.
personnel cost for maintenance : 0.25 manhour/day
operational cost 0.4 – 0.5 EUR/Nm³
additives and residues: the separated dust needs dewatering, transport and disposal. The water needs to be treated before discharge.
