The core problem were discussed and solved, including the scope of waste products, priority environmental attributes, distinction between general WEEE and professional WEEE, and emphasis on key products. The standard lays a realistic foundation for upstream sellers to participate in the recycling of WEEE. At the same time, it can effectively solve the problems of asymmetry and mismatch of system information in various enterprises in the industry, and provide a standard basis for waste electrical and electronic product management.
