Road vehicles - Recyclability and recoverability rate -
Requirement and calculation method
1 Scope
This document stipulates the symbols for the recyclability rate and recoverability rate
of road vehicles, the requirements and calculation methods for the recyclability rate and
recoverability rate of complete vehicles.
This document is applicable to newly produced category M1 and category N1 vehicles;
other vehicles shall refer to it.
2 Normative references
The contents of the following documents constitute essential provisions of this
document through normative references in the text. Among them, for dated reference
documents, only the version corresponding to the date applies to this document; for
undated reference documents, the latest version (including all amendments) applies to
this document.

GB/T 26988 Marks for recoverability of automobile parts
GB/T 26989 Automobile recovery - Terminology
GB/T 33460 Specifications for compiling dismantling manual of end-of-life
vehicles
GB/T 34490 Recycled sintered neodymium iron boron permanent magnets

thermoplastic elastomer parts
3 Terms and definitions
The terms and definitions as defined in GB/T 3730.2-1996 and GB/T 26989, as well as
the following terms and definitions, apply to this document.
3.1
All mass units are expressed in kilograms, accurate to 2 decimal places.
5 Requirements for vehicle recyclability and recoverability
rate
5.1 Requirements for vehicle recyclability rate
The recyclability rate of categories M1 and N1 vehicles shall not be less than 85%.
5.2 Requirements for vehicle recoverability rate
The recoverability rate of categories M1 and N1 vehicles shall not be less than 95%.
6 Calculation method of vehicle recyclability and
recoverability rate
6.1 General
6.1.1 The calculation of the recyclability rate and recoverability rate of the entire
vehicle shall be based on the vehicle material data, which is collected from the supply
chain and the proven recycling technology.
6.1.2 Plastic, rubber, thermoplastic elastomer parts shall have the material type marked
on the surface of the part, in accordance with the requirements of QC/T 797. For parts
of other material types, it shall have a recoverability mark on the outer surface in
accordance with the provisions of GB/T 26988; or it shall describe the technical
information such as the recoverability and recovery technology of the parts in the
technical documents, such as the scrapped vehicle dismantling instruction manual. The
preparation of the scrapped vehicle dismantling instruction manual shall meet the
requirements of GB/T 33460.
6.1.3 The recyclability rate and recoverability rate of the vehicle are calculated through
the following four stages:
a) Preprocessing;
b) Dismantling;
c) Metal separation;
d) Disposal of non-metallic residues.
6.1.4 mP, mD, mM can be obtained in the calculations of 6.1.3a), 6.1.3b), 6.1.3c),
respectively. The mTr and mTe can be determined in the 6.1.3 d) stage (see 6.3.4). The
data expression method for calculating the vehicle recyclability rate and recoverability
rate shall comply with the provisions of Appendix A; the graphical expression method
can refer to Appendix B.
6.2 Classification of materials
6.2.1 Divide all materials making up the vehicle into the following 7 categories:
a) Metal;
b) Polymers (excluding rubber);
c) Rubber;
d) Glass;
e) Liquids [including fuel, engine oil, transmission oil, gearbox (including
differential and transfer case) oil, power steering oil, coolant, brake fluid, shock
absorber oil, air conditioning refrigerant, windshield cleaning fluid, hydraulic
suspension fluid, etc.];
f) Improved organic natural materials such as leather, wood, cardboard, cotton wool
fabrics;
g) Other parts and/or materials that cannot be classified in detail (such as compounds,
electronic components, electrical equipment).
6.2.2 According to the data sheet in Appendix A, record statistics and determine the
total mass of each type of material.
6.2.3 The classification of materials can be carried out when calculating the mass of
materials at each stage specified in 6.3.
6.3 Determination of mP, mD, mM, mTr, mTe
6.3.1 Preprocessing - Determine mP
6.3.1.1 The parts and/or materials processed in the pre-processing stage mainly include:
a) All liquids;
b) Batteries (including lead-acid batteries, lithium-ion batteries, metal hydride nickel
batteries, fuel cells, etc.);
c) Engine oil filter;
d) Pressure fuel tanks (including liquefied petroleum gas tanks, compressed natural
gas tanks, hydrogen storage tanks, other gas fuel tanks, etc.);
e) Tires;
f) Catalytic system (including catalytic converter, SCR selective catalytic system,
DPF diesel exhaust particle trap, etc.).
6.3.1.2 Parts and/or materials described in 6.3.1.1 are considered reusable or recyclable.
6.3.1.3 According to Appendix A, record the total mass of parts and/or materials in
6.3.1.1, to determine mP.
6.3.2 Disassembly - Determine mD
6.3.2.1 Based on the principles listed in 6.3.2.2 ~ 6.3.2.7, determine other parts on the
vehicle that are considered to be reusable or recyclable.
6.3.2.2 During the disassembly stage, parts that are considered to be reusable and/or
recyclable shall be disassembled. The disassembly of parts shall be evaluated, through
the following aspects:
a) The location of the parts on the vehicle is accessible;
b) The fastening method of parts has disassembly technology.
6.3.2.3 When determining the recyclability of parts, the safety and environmental
requirements for recyclable parts shall be met. Parts that do not meet the safety and
environmental requirements are considered non-reusable.
6.3.2.4 Parts and/or materials that meet the disassembly requirements of 6.3.2.2 and
meet the following conditions can be considered recyclable:
a) The material composition of metal parts or non-metal parts has been marked, in
accordance with GB/T 26988 or QC/T 797, and/or the material type and
recyclability information are described in the scrapped vehicle dismantling
manual;
b) The material type of non-metallic parts has proven recycling technology for
automotive non-metallic materials listed in Appendix C.
