The document describes the WEEE TRACE project, which developed a traceability solution using technologies like RFID to track waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) throughout the recycling process. The project aimed to improve management and control of the reverse supply chain for WEEE. It deployed over 150 collection points, logistics partners, and treatment facilities across Spain, tagging over 400,000 units of WEEE with unique identifiers. The system provided full transparency to track WEEE and reduce leaks from the system. Feedback was positive, with stakeholders seeing benefits like reduced administrative costs and improved enforcement of regulations.
