Summary: | Waste of electrical and electronic equipment is one the fastest
growing waste streams in the EU, with some 9 million tonnes generated in 2005 and expected to grow to more than 12 million tonnes by 2020. Electrical and electronic products contain substances, which are valuable as well as often also critical. The main aim of the paper is presentation the methodological approach to identification of bromine or chlorine presence in components (in WEEE).
