Traduction de «operate raw mineral separation equipment » (Anglais → Français) :

A separate category for small ICT equipment makes sense, as these contain many raw materials.

Given, however, that no other indications of size are mentioned in the directive, there is a fear that use might be made of the centimetre scale in Annex III. A separate category for small ICT equipment makes sense, as these contain many raw materials.

1. Welcomes the Commission Communication entitled "Tackling the challenges in Commodity markets and on raw materials" (COM(2011)0025) and in particular its broad focus on raw and recovered raw materials from mineral resources and biotic resources, its emphasis on resource efficiency and recycling, and its recognition of the importance of urban mining as a valuable source for retrieving, i.e. re-use, upcycling and recycling raw materials, and its determination to look at all three pillars of this broad challenge, namely assuring a fair and sustainable supply of raw materials from international markets, fostering sustainable supply within ...[+++]the EU and promoting resource efficiency and recycling; notes that recycling often results in downgrading the value of the material, and that more focus should be given to the upcycling of materials which would render a higher value to the retrieved material; points out the potential of re-use as a separate category, to extend the life of products and urges the Commission to develop re-use notably through its ecodesign and waste policies; regrets, however, the lack of proposals for concrete measures by the Commission and cautions that, without such measures, the stated goals are not likely to be reached;

"treatment" means the mechanical, physical, biological, thermal or chemical process or combination of processes carried out on mineral resources, including from the working of quarries, with a view to extracting the mineral, including size change, classification, separation and leaching, and the re-processing of previously discarded waste, but excluding smelting, thermal manufacturing processes other than the burning of limestone, and metallurgical operations ; ...[+++]

The Commission examined the effects of the proposed operation on several separate markets: linear alkybenzines (LAB, a surfactant raw material for household and industrial detergents), LAB sulphonic acid (LAS, derivative of LAB for the manufacture of detergents), N-paraffins (key raw material for manufacture of LAB), oxo-alcohols, linear fatty alcohols and their respective derivatives (intermediates for production of household and industrial detergents).

The Commission examined the effects of the proposed operation on three separate markets: the market for the production and sale of PE resins; the upstream market for the supply of ethylene, which is the raw material used in the production of PE, and the market for PE production technology.
