Total estimated ELVs is:138,184 (2014) ELVs generated in Yangon are sent to MEC's factory. Expiration period (Endof-Service of Vehicle) is set by regulation: 25 years for private cars and 22 years for commercial vehicles. Total estimated ELVs is: about 6,000 Drivers tend to use ir vehicles until y are broken. Therefore, ELVs is low. Car owners continue to use old cars although re is an system. If used cars become older, y are likely to move from urban to rural areas or be exported to neighbouring countries. Total estimated ELVs is:164,934 (2014) In case cars cannot be repaired, parts are removed and bodies as scrap are sold to waste traders. Car owners continue to use old cars because re is no system for private vehicles. If used cars become older, y are likely to move from urban to rural areas or be exported to neighbouring countries.

4 Deregistration Inspection for Compulsory for all commercial insurance is vehicles. vehicles. also required. are required to undergo General Inspection by All transport vehicles are required to take technical s within If a car owner sends an ELV to MEC's factory, owner can receive a licence to import a new used car. This system works like deregistration. re is a system that if renewal of registration is not done for 5 years, car will be automatically deregistered. Automobile is mandatory and owners need to take initial Deregistration is necessary when: car has been involved in an accident; car s engine or chassis has been removed; car exceeds expiration period, owner lost car, among ors. Take back scheme of ELVs are considered under Prime Minister's notification. Commercial and personal vehicles are required to be inspected. duration Deregistration is obliged within 15 days after owner has stopped to use vehicle. If a car owner does not pay registration fee for more than 3 years, car will be automatically deregistered. Personal vehicles must be inspected every year after 7 years from new Car owners can deregister a vehicle at any time. If car owner does not deregister a vehicle for more than 2 years, car will be automatically deregistered. Commercial vehicles have to be inspected annually. Random Car owners need to deregister ir cars at police stations. In practice, car owners often sell ELVs to repair shops. Commercial vehicles, personal vehicles, and public vehicles are required inspected every six months. Although re is system of deregistration, system is mostly not used. are required to take mandatory s prior to ir Currently, re is no formal deregistration system in operation. AIS 129 proposes a formal deregistration system to be implemented along with a destruction certificate for ELVs. system is in process of elaboration. Before revision of RTVA coincided with ELV, exported vehicles and vehicles dismantled cannot be tracked due to lack of system of permanent deregistration and temporary deregistration. Car owners are required under RTVA to deregister ir vehicles in case of end-of-use or of cars. Due to integration of e- manifest system and Vehicle Registration System, permanent and temporary deregistration, and about ELVs are managed just as vehicle in use. All vehicles subjected to mandatory under RTVA. 146

Dismantling is also of first time and renewal s depends on car types. Insurance certification is required for. ELVs generated near Hanoi are dismantled by informal sector in recycling villages. re is no permitted ELV facility. Dismantling is conducted mainly by hand and threatens labour safety. Steel scraps are sent to steel recycling plants in recycling Commercial vehicles have to be inspected every year after registration. ELVs generated domestically and imported are dismantled in. Dismantling is conducted mainly by hand and threatens labour safety. Steel scraps are sent to recyclers and mufflers, including rare metals, are sold to recyclers. <Treatment of re is no system for private vehicles but plans for introducing an system for private cars are often proposed in connection with deregistration policy. re are ATFs for ELVs and is done in compliance with requirements of ELV regulations. Used parts are taken off and bodies are dismantled manually by gas burners. Steel scraps are sent to recyclers and mufflers, including rare metals, are sold to recyclers. Generally, informal sector plays a central role in operation of waste collection/recycling. Used parts are taken off and bodies are dismantled manually by gas burners. n-ferrous metals are sent to aluminium product manufacturers. <Treatment of plastics: > 'Lapaks', intermediaries between collectors and informal dealers, perform function of collection, selection, Vehicle is mainly conducted by repair shops and junkshops. Dismantling is conducted mainly by hand and threatens labour safety. Steel scraps, aluminium, mufflers, including rare metals and plastics, are each sent to specialised collectors. Government of India will set up 10 Motor Vehicle Inspection centres across country as part of a pilot program. Vehicle is mainly conducted by small lowtechnology units with low yield and capacity. working condition is very bad for estimated 100,000 recycling workers who face severe health threats. re is not enough space for facility and facility is located in residential re were cases of improper treatment of CFCs and airbags. Dismantlers hand over used parts to parts markets and retrieved steel to metal markets. Approximately 6,600 places exist. Dismantlers have mainly three functions: -hand over used parts to parts markets and retrieved steel to metal markets; 147

An estimated 410,700 tons of scraps (metals, aluminium and plastics) are sent to scrap dealers. 7,800 tons of rubbers and plastics that cannot be recycled are dumped in open garbage areas. Currently, re is no shredder in operation in India for ELVs. The small volumes do not make a shredder economically viable to operate. The Ministry of Steel is proposing to install shredders where ELV volumes are guaranteed. -request airbag collection to JARP; -transfer ELV carcass to shredding operators. Recycling fee is supported by car users. Due to rising cost of treatment, lack of collection system and shortage of landfill sites for ASRs, re were illegal dumping and low rate of ASRs. re are 1,083 shredding operations (2013) and 1,364 shredding sites (2013). Shredding operators cover following functions in framework set up by ELV Law: -crushing of frame and exterior; -recovery of useful metals; and -handover of shredder dusts to 148

7 Pollution control Licence manufacturers. Little treatment is done for materials, resulting in air, water, and soil pollution. Little treatment is done for materials, resulting in air, water, and soil pollution. Pollution does not seem to be properly controlled because of lack of capacity building. Only MEC operates ELV facilities. Most of factories do not introduce appropriate pollution control measures. Materials that cannot be sold are illegally dumped in roadsides or rivers and generate pollution. Batteries and waste liquids from ELVs are in waste list. The recycling and treatment facilities must possess waste Recycling that have Department of Industrial Works licence code-105 and 106 have to introduce appropriate pollution prevention measures. Recycling have to acquire licence (105 and 106) according to tification of MOI. 15 B.E (2001). ATFs must have a waste management licence from appropriate agency and must meet standards to ensure that y: -store and treat ELVs in a way that does not harm environment; -remove all components and liquids (known as depollution ); and -recycle, store and dispose parts appropriately. ATFs are sites that have been licensed to accept ELV motor vehicles. Pollution does not seem to be properly controlled because of lack of capacity building. Only certified facilities, certified and authorised recycling workshops, or collection points that have been nominated by manufacturer are permitted to issue se certificates. Little treatment is done for materials, resulting in air, water, and soil pollution. Little treatment is done for materials, resulting in air, water, and soil pollution. AIS129 stipulates that collection centres and centres shall obtain an authorisation from concerned Government Certifying Agency. Recycling fee is supported by car users. Dismantlers are required to conduct pollution control measures in compliance with relevant regulations. Dismantlers have to conduct in compliance with recycling requirements under ELV Law. There is no common licence scheme (some dismantlers had licence under Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act). Dismantlers have to obtain licence from 149

Basel Convention ( wastes), Convention on Climate Change international treaties, provincial legislations, local legislations are also applicable. 4 Reuse of Parts Generation of used parts Small used parts dealers deal with imported parts from mainly Malaysia, Japan, and Thailand Imported used parts come from mainly Thailand, Malaysia, Japan, and UAE. In some cases, domestic used parts compete with imitation parts from China. re is a used parts market called Gioi but volume of domestic parts is low. New imitation parts from China meet demand for automobile parts. Demand for used parts imported from Japan becomes less and less because y are not fit to current model in Thailand. Some dealers send ir staff to Japan and import used parts from Japanese importation of used parts to Malaysia is very huge. Malaysia worked as a hub of trade of used parts. In some cases, domestic used parts compete with imitation parts from China. Imported used parts come from Japan and Singapore although re is prohibition on importation of used parts. In some cases, domestic used parts are taken from accident cars and used cars. Used parts are mainly imported from Japan and Thailand. These parts compete with new imitation parts from China. Used parts are mainly generated domestically due to prohibition in importation of used motor vehicle parts. Used parts are generated by dismantlers and y flow to parts markets and metal markets. Used parts are exported to Malaysia, UAE, Russia, and Thailand and ors, as well as are circulated domestically 150

Some re alternators, starters, among ors. re are many used parts dealers in Indonesia. Used parts are sold in agglomerated market of bengkel, car repair shops, and parts dealers. Some remanufacturi ng chassis, bodies, engines, among ors. Used parts are sold at auctions in form of parts package in containers. Rewinding of motors, starters, alternators, among ors, takes place in a crude manner in informal sector. There is no organised industry for remanufacturi ng used car parts. Used parts are recovered, refurbished and sold by dismantlers to second-hand spare outlets located in same scrap yards. There is market for remanufactured parts such as alternators and starters. Used parts and rebuilt parts are sold in domestic market. At same time, those products are exported to foreign countries such as mainly, Malaysia, UAE, Russia, and ors. 151

10 Use of used parts Regulation on import/export used parts is relatively small. The importation of used cars or Recycled parts generated domestically are generally not used because most of m are old and of low quality. Importation of half-cuts are prohibited. Even though importation of used parts is prohibited, used parts are imported from neighbouring countries. Most used parts are used domestically. Importation of used parts is prohibited. Most used parts are used domestically and some are exported. car insurance system provides incentives for car owners and workshops to use used parts. Thailand has basically prohibited Only 30 percent of imported used parts are used domestically. Ors are exported to mainly Middle East and Africa. car insurance system provides incentives for car owners and workshops to use used parts. Used tires, brake pads, batteries are Used parts such as shock absorbers, diesel engines, lamps, and bumpers are reused. car insurance system provides incentives for car owners and workshops to use used parts. Importation of used parts is prohibited. Used parts such as wheels, engines, and ors are reused. Importation of used parts is partially Used parts such as bumpers, head lamps, bonnets, steering wheels, batteries, and ors are used Importation of used cars and Used parts such as exterior parts (doors, bumpers, lamps, and ors), interior parts (compressors, engines, alternators, starters, and ors) are used. Due to rising need and social requirement to reuse used parts, secondary market of used parts has been expanding. The rising rate of automobile insurance in event of car accident leads to expansion of used parts market because car users have incentive to self-repair and lower repairing cost. There is no specific 152

Steel scraps, nonferrous scraps, plastics seem to be exported. Wire harnesses are retrieved from half-cut bodies and reused. Wastes such as paper, plastics, aluminium and copper are recycled domestically, and flow of recyclable wastes from Lao PDR to neighbouring countries has been observed: paper to Thailand; plastics to China or Viet Nam; and aluminium and copper to Viet Nam. Steel scraps are recycled domestically. n-ferrous scraps and plastics seem to be exported. Scraps dismantled by MEC are also utilised by steel facilities of MEC. re are no government related facilities for copper and aluminium recycling. Steel scraps, non-ferrous scraps, and plastics seem to be recycled domestically. Steel is brought to areas where relatively modern largescale steel plants are integrated. Recycling of non-ferrous metals is carried out in Craft Villages that are specified for metal or resources. Steel scraps are recycled in steel. Steel scraps are sent to scrap trading, and n sold to steel. n-ferrous metals are recycled in. n-ferrous metals are also sent to scrap trading and sold to. Recyclers collect wastes from eir car one to three month warrantee is provided and quality of product is assured to some extent. Steel scraps are recycled in steel. Steel scraps are sent to scrap trading and n sold to steel. n-ferrous metals are also sent to scrap trading and sold to. Some amounts are exported to China, and ors. remaining car body is manually cut into steel scraps. Iron recyclers buy and process se scraps. Recyclable materials such as glass, tires, large plastic parts, among ors, are processed using separate recycling techniques. Valuable metals are separated/ recovered from scrapped cars manually and open incineration. Retrieved metals are sold to metal factories. Or wastes such as wire harnesses, plastics, and rubbers are recycled. Generally, scrapped metal items such as sheet metals, aluminium and plastics are retrieved and reused. Unusable items such as rubber parts, excluding tires, insulation materials, glasses, among ors, are discarded to municipal garbage. of used parts. Many dealers provided certain quality guarantee in certain period to buyers. Uniformed standard for quality guarantee was established among 3 related associations. Additionally, expansion of scope of guarantee is under consideration Law for Promotion of Effective Utilization of Resources specifies responsibilities of business entities to adopt 3R measures. Steel scraps and non-ferrous metals, catalysts and tires are reused or recycled. 154

Lead battery is not properly treated, and this causes emission of wastes. Lead battery is not properly treated, and this causes emission of wastes. Lead battery is not properly treated, and this causes emission of wastes. Some of wastes are not properly treated. For lead batteries, re are seven permitted battery recycling facilities with capacity of around 100 tons per day. t all batteries are recycled. t all waste oils are collected. Some waste oils are disposed in sewage, and like, but some from informal sector use waste oil inappropriatel y, harming environment. t all batteries are recycled. Waste oils and CFCs are not recycled. Waste oils and CFCs are not properly treated and may cause soil and air pollution. t all batteries are recycled. All fluids are drained and stored for respective recyclers. Mercury and or pollutant agents are removed to storage at this stage. Batteries are partly recycled. Oils are accumulated and resold to recycling shops, while CFC is generally not recovered and released in air without processing even though recovery instruments are distributed to some factories. Batteries are sold to specialised battery stores or junkshops, among ors. Waste oils are not retrieved or resold and are mostly dumped. CFCs are not retrieved during processing and are released in air as re is no CFC collecting facility. Batteries are sold to spare shops, among ors, although re are formal regulations concerning disposal of used batteries. Regulations exist for return and recycling of batteries but se are not strictly enforced. Little treatment is done for materials, resulting in air, water, and soil pollution in recycling facilities. Law for Promotion of Effective Utilization of Resources specifies responsibilities of business entities to adopt 3R measures. Lead-acid battery is properly treated. Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act specifies responsibilities of business entities to adopt 3R measures and to conduct proper treatment of ASRs, discarded tires and half-cuts containing airbags, among ors, as waste products.

Recycling have to acquire a licence according to tification of MOI. 15 B.E (2001). Environmental Quality Order 1989: -Prescribes types of waste treatment and disposal facilities and licence. -Prescribes procedures when owners of facilities change and obligation of informing amount of Only certified facilities, certified and authorised recycling workshops, or collection points which have been nominated by manufacturers are permitted. Testing of formal mechanised recycling process has been started at Recycling Demo Unit of Global Automotive Research Centre, which can properly treat batteries, oils, airbags and or materials. AIS 129 incorporates provision for accreditation of standards after y meet specified standards. downstream retrieval of ELVs, proper treatment of three items, designated as three negative cost components, are required: - CFCs approximately 20,000 recovery places and 8 collection/neutralisat ion plants; - Airbags: 26 airbag collection centres and 5 recycling plants; and -ASRs: 54 recycling facilities and 33 incinerators and landfills.

15 waste accepted, treated, stored, and disposed. Waste treatment Environmental Protection Law stipulates that - waste disposal sites allocated; and - wastes should be separated before disposal. governments supports implementatio n of technologies for waste treatments, reuse, and recycling. The Environmental Conservation Law and related regulations have been introduced to prevent pollution. Decision 50/2013 of Prime Minister on retrieval and treatment of end-of-life products: waste oil: 2016; batteries: 2016; tires: 2016; vehicle: Take back schemes for batteries and waste oils are considered under decision. Environmental Protection Law has been introduced to prevent pollution. Waste treatment also controlled under this Act. tification of MOI B.E (2005) controls pollution from industries. notification indicates responsibilities of dismantlers and polluters, and lists wastes such as waste oils and liquids, CFCs, lead batteries, and catalysts. Law. 32/2009 covers management. Law. 18/2008 covers waste management. Government Regulation of.101/2014 covers wastes. Basel Convention - wastes, Convention on Climate Change international treaties, PEL and LEL are also applicable. DAO prescribes responsibilitie s of polluters for wastes as follows: -Sulfuric acid -Waste oils -Ozonedepleting substance (CFCs and halon) AIS 129 requires collection centres and centres to possess equipment and facilities for wastes. Polluters is responsible for treatment of industrial waste generated from its business in Waste Management and Public Cleansing Act. ELV Law prescribes ASR recycling target: 30 percent in 2005; 50 percent in 2010; and 70 percent in 2015, and Airbags recycling target: 85 percent.
