Foreword
This document (EN 50625-2-2:2015) has been prepared by CLC/TC 111X “Environment”.
The following dates are fixed:
• latest date by which this document has to be (dop) 2016-04-13
implemented at national level by publication of
an identical national standard or by
endorsement
• latest date by which the national standards (dow) 2018-04-13
conflicting with this document have to
be withdrawn
This part 2 is to be used in conjunction with EN 50625-1:2014.
NOTE 1 When “Part 1” is mentioned in this standard, it refers to EN 50625–1:2014.
This Part 2 supplements or modifies the corresponding clauses in EN 50625-1, so as to convert that
publication into the European Standard: Treatment requirements for WEEE containing CRTs and Flat
Panel Displays
When a particular subclause of Part 1 is not mentioned in this Part 2, that subclause applies as far as
is reasonable. When this standard states “addition”, “modification” or “replacement”, the relevant text
in Part 1 is to be adapted accordingly.
NOTE 2 The following numbering system is used:
– subclauses, tables and figures that are numbered starting from 101 are additional to those in Part 1;
– additional annexes are lettered AA, BB, etc.
NOTE 3 The following print types are used:
– requirements: in roman type;
– changes compared to part 1: in italic type
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. CENELEC [and/or CEN] shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such
patent rights.
This document has been prepared under mandate M/518 given to CENELEC by the European
Commission and the European Free Trade Association, and supports requirements of Directive
2012/19/EU (WEEE).
For the relationship with the EU Directive see informative Annex ZZ, which is an integral part of this
document.
Introduction
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following:
This European Standard aims to assist organisations in:
− achieving effective and efficient treatment and disposal of WEEE containing CRTs and flat panel
displays in order to prevent pollution and minimize emissions;
− promoting increased material recycling;
− promoting high quality recovery operations;
− preventing inappropriate disposal of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) containing
CRTs and Flat Panel Displays and fractions thereof;
− assuring protection of human health and safety, and the environment;
− preventing shipments and, or consignments of WEEE containing CRTs and flat panel displays to
operators whose operations fail to comply with this normative document or a comparable set of
requirements.
This European Standard supports the objectives of the Community's environment policy.
This aims to preserve, protect and improve the quality of the environment, protect human health and
utilize natural resources prudently and rationally. That policy is based on the precautionary principle
and the maxims that preventive action to minimize environmental damage should, where possible, be
rectified at source and the polluter should pay.
This European Standard contains requirements applicable to the treatment of WEEE containg CRTs
and flat panel displays and is a Part 2 of EN 50625-1, Collection, logistics and Treatment requirements
for WEEE - Part 1:General treatment requirements. Additionally, this standard will be supported by a
technical report that will provide a more detailed comparison between normative treatment
requirements derived directly from the legal text of Directive 2012/19/EC, especially Annex VII, and
between informative treatment requirements going beyond the strict requirements of Directive
2012/19/EC.
This European Standard has been prepared in order to support European legislation and so uses
some of the terms defined in European law. In order to ensure that the definitions used in this
standard are identical to those defined by law these terms are identified as 'void', indicating that this
standard does not contain a definition, and a 'Note to entry' that identifies which law contains the legal
definition and the term as defined in that law.

1 Scope
This clause of Part 1 is replaced by the following:
This European standard is applicable to the treatments of WEEE containing CRTs and flat panel
displays.
This European standard applies to the treatment of WEEE containing CRTs and flat panel displays
until end-of-waste status is fulfilled, or fractions are recycled, recovered, or disposed of.
This European standard addresses all operators involved in the treatment including related handling,
sorting, and storage.
