Abstract
Sustainable recovery of critical metals from Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment in the European Union requires information for detailed analysis, monitoring and decision making. Related knowledge is currently insufficient or disseminated through the network of stakeholders. This paper assesses the requirements of an adequate Database Management System with participation of different actors involved in the recovery of critical metals, and analyses the difficulties and the possibilities found for its implementation. The requirements of the Database Management System and the interaction of the different actors are presented, with the aim of supplying standardized information for management and research. Barriers are studied through a survey to identify obstacles for its elaboration. Limitations for its development are addressed and practical solutions for its elaboration are presented.
