4 Executive Summary Family-run global player with more than 140 years of experience One of the biggest suppliers of secondary resources worldwide Key supplier to the global steel and metal industry; clients include voestalpine, ArcelorMittal, Riva and ThyssenKrupp Dense network of locations with around 400 collecting points and 100 processing centers in more than 20 countries Regional focus on Germany, Austria, South-East Europe and North America Technology leader with high process know-how in recycling of iron and non-ferrous metals Trend setter in processing secondary resources using key technologies in the production process Unique recovery rate of more than 94 % for end-of-life vehicles Secondary resources conserve raw materials and reduce CO 2 emissions (10 mio t per year) Strategic concentration on organic growth, strengthening of leading market position and improvement of key financial figures 4

5 Global footprint and network as basis for urban mining > 400 locations worldwide Europe 400 locations in more than 20 countries Recycling is a local business Worldwide material availability and proximity to customers Sales benefits from international network 5

6 In former times: Coal mining area Größe: 36 ha (einer der größten Recyclingstandorte in Europa) 270 Mitarbeiter Umschlagsmenge: etwa Tonnen/Jahr Seit 1991 etwa 60 Mio. investiert

7 Now: Most innovative recycling plant in Germany Recovery Rate: ~ 96,96 % for end-of-life vehicles, mixed and collected scrap Investment since 1991: ~ 60 Mio.

12 Other Projects: Dismantling/Urban Mining Verwertung von Elektronikschrott

13 Urban Mining: Dismantling of Power Plants (ex. Austria) Kraftwerk Zeltweg, Österreich Ursprüngliche Planung: Umrüstung von Kohle auf Biomasse (Bildquelle: Scholz Austria) Kraftwerk Voitsberg, Österreich Ursprüngliche Planung vom ehemaligen Eigentümer: Umrüstung von Braunkohle auf Steinkohle (Bildquelle:

14 Demand European ELV Directive/Legal background Free Return for new cars Restriction of heavy metals: Cd, Hg, Pb, Cr VI Free Return for all cars Recycling quotas: Re-Use and Recycling incl. Energy recovery

21 End of life vehicles in Nigeria Nigeria is a huge market for endof-life-vehicles, which are sold for dumping prices. These vehicles are often smuggled from Europe or North America, in over 1400 illegal routes to Nigeria and Benin. Picture source: Source:

22 Quantity of vehicles There is no exact number of vehicles registrated. However, official statistics from Vehicle Inspection Office (VIO) and Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) indicate that over 500, 000 units of vehicles terminate life annually in Nigeria used cars and new cars were imported in 2012, ELVs per year (??? Numbers have to be proofed) Picture source: Source:

23 Recycling possibility In Nigeria there is a huge informal sector with highly educated technicians and engineers, with an impressive ability for repairing used electronic equipment and for local resale, which has been declared as unresuable goods from Europe or North America. Good basis for collecting scrap and ELVs, how is the struicture of the sector? Are they well organized?

25 Demand Europe: Future Cars (less energy consumption, but high amounts of Non-Recyclables) LCD Screen Europium Yttrium Cerium Glass & Mirrors Polishing Powder Cerium UV Cut Glas Cerium Hybrid Electric Motor and Generator Neodymium Praseodymium Dysprosium Terbium Serviceseiten50plus.de Diesel Fuel Additive Lanthanum Cerium 25+ Electric Motors Throughout Vehicle Neodymium (NdFeB) Magnets Catalytic Converter Cerium/Zirconium Lanthanum Hybrid NiMH Battery Lanthanum Cerium 25

26 Challenges: Today and tomorrow * End-of-Life vehicles (ELVs) are waste (dangerous with liquids) and should be treated carefully export to Africa with no permit is illegal ELVs contain high amounts of resources (and hazardous substances) which are not renewable Mio. of cars are shipped as waste and used cars from Europe to Africa: Recycling facilities should be in place Prerequisite: Legal framework is necessary because of the need to improve standards (authorities have to monitor and control strandards) Cooperations are necessary between countries with high and low standards Educational programmes have to be developed informal sector should be included! For investments there is a need of further informations, like market studies... 26
