End of Waste Criteria (EoW) specifies when certain waste ceases to be waste and obtains a status of a product (or a secondary raw material).

According to Article 6 (1) and (2) of the Waste Framework Directive 2008/98/EC, certain specified waste shall cease to be waste when it has undergone a recovery (including recycling) operation and complies with specific criteria to be developed in line with certain legal conditions [1] , in particular:

  • the substance or object is commonly used for specific purposes;
  • there is an existing market or demand for the substance or object;
  • the use is lawful (substance or object fulfills the technical requirements for the specific purposes and meets the existing legislation and standards applicable to products);
  • the use will not lead to overall adverse environmental or human health impacts[1].

Waste Quality Protocols are end of waste frameworks that industry can volunteer to follow[2]. The 13 Waste Quality Protocols, which started a review process from February 2020, will be replaced by a new Resource Framework, the guidance of which was published in January 2022[3]
