Key Topics of Discussion

The seminar will delve into notable regulatory trends, particularly focusing on the EU's End-of-Life Vehicles (ELV) regulations, which are shaping recycling mandates for metal materials based on resource circulation principles. This discussion is timely, considering the EU's intention to implement scrap iron export regulations aimed at fostering low-carbon material production through recycling within the region.

2. The Need for Recycling
3. International Policy Trends Related to Metals

In the EU, the focus on low carbon materials has seen initiatives like green steel receiving mixed responses, including recent postponements or cancellations of projects. Consequently, to stimulate demand, legislation has been proposed linking the continuation of internal combustion vehicle sales to the carbon offset by green steel. Conversely, China is pushing for enhanced use of recycled materials as part of its carbon peak initiatives, showcasing differing national approaches toward sustainability.
