In September 2017, Call2Recycle engaged Kelleher Environmental to carry out a research project to explore the different policy options to address the end-of-life disposal of consumer batteries particularly in products such as WEEE (waste electrical and electronic equipment). These items include traditional e-waste such as laptops, tablets and smart phones in addition to broader products like power tools and electronic toys, etc. The study sought to determine the potential implications, particularly environmental impact, of different policy approaches. Study Research: Interviews, Literature Search and Web Research. A total of 29 representatives of different organizations were interviewed as part of the study research. Interviews were carried out with four battery manufacturers, eight state and provincial officials, seven WEEE recyclers, three companies in the reuse/refurbishment business, two auditing and standards representatives and two downstream processors. Information from the interviews informed study conclusions and policy development, complemented by extensive literature review and web related research.
