Using data on ELT management practices from 45 countries, the report “Global ELT Management – A global state of knowledge on regulation, management systems, impacts of recovery and technologies”, includes:

• An overview of current and prospective regulations, ELT management systems (collection, transport & intermediate treatment stages)
• The distribution of ELT across recovery methods, products and applications
• A better understanding of the feasibility of different recovery route categories and associated methods, products and applications
• An overview of studies conducted on the risk of impacts on health and the environment and
