The Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) on August 2023, issued the Draft framework for the generation of the EPR Certificate including Item-wise average percentage composition in terms of weight of Key Metals for the generation of the EPR Certificate.
The following has been stated namely: -
• EPR certificates will be issued against key metals recycled from E-waste. The key metals are classified in 3 groups namely Precious Metals, Non-ferrous metals, and Ferrous.
• The gap between total EPR Obligation in terms of gold and gold recycling capacity will be bridged in five years.
• Annexure-1 which states “Item-wise average percentage composition in terms of weight of Key Metals for generation of EPR Certificate” has been inserted.
