The work has been undertaken by Oeko-Institut, and peer reviewed by Eunomia
Research & Consulting. The work has been requested in view of supporting the review
of the list of restricted substances under RoHS 2. The objective of this project can be outlined as follows:
| |
- Prepare a substance assessment of Diisobutylphthalat (DIBP), based on the
methodology (template) for substance assessment prepared by the Austrian
Umweltbundesamt GmbH;
- Provide input concerning quantitative usage data for the 21 priority substances
in EEE identified by the Austrian Umweltbundesamt GmbH, or where this is not
possible, a magnitude ranking, with a view to a refined prioritisation for future
review cycles.
|
A review of exisisting available alternatives is also provided.
The final report of the “
Study for the review of the list of restricted substances under RoHS 2 – Analysis of impacts from a possible restriction of several new substances under RoHS 2“ is now available on the
EU CIRCABC website (Browse categories > European Commission > Environment > RoHS 2014 Evaluations, at top left, click on "Library" > Reports).
The final report can also be downloaded
here.
The report presents the compilation and review of quantitative information concerning the various substances on the prioritised shortlist and the ROHS Annex II Dossier for DIBP, which was published separately on the 21st of May 2014.
