Removal of Hazardous Substances in Electronics:
Processes and Techniques for SMEs
"To provide European SMEs of the electronics sector with the knowledge & tools to produce electronic equipment free of hazardous substances with guaranteed quality and reliability"
The main technological objective of the GreenRoSE project is to provide European SMEs (Small and medium sized enterprises) of the electronics sector with the knowledge & tools to produce electronic equipment free of hazardous substances (in particular lead-free soldered and halogen free) with guaranteed quality and reliability. This environmentally sound electronic production is the new environmental and business challenge as reflected in European legislation - RoHS (Directive on the Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances), WEEE (Directive on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment), EuE (Directive on establishing a framework for Eco-design of End Use Equipment) - and in the worldwide trend towards "Green Electronics".
GreenRoSE was started up 1st of June 2004 and will go on for 3 years. The project has 27 partners from 8 European countries, including the new member states Latvia, Poland and Slovenia.
