Review this measure’s obligations and confirm whether they reach your products

Applies toNot specified in this measure; this standard governs recovery, storage, transport, and processing operators rather than defining producers/manufacturers

Obligations under this law
  • ·Transport vehicles must be equipped with rain-protection measures and emergency fire-extinguishing equipment
  • ·Storage facilities must have drainage and pollutant interception systems on impermeable surfaces
  • ·Storage areas must be enclosed with fencing; waste tires and regenerated materials must be stored in designated zones labeled by type and name

No designated program action is recorded for this measure yet — treat the above as the general obligation and verify against the source text.

Establishes mandatory collection, storage, transport, and processing standards for waste tires under Taiwan's Waste Disposal Act § 15, with producer/importer responsibility for recovery and treatment; includes end-of-life material recycling into secondary products (rubber goods, asphalt, fuel, cement kiln feedstock) and financial subsidy eligibility for compliant processors.
Covered Products

  • ·Energy-utilization operations must have dust-collection equipment and kiln/steam/steelmaking/cogeneration equipment
  • ·All processing facilities must have fire-safety equipment and lightning-protection or grounding equipment, regularly inspected
  • ·Applicants for recovery/processing subsidies under Article 18, Paragraph 5 of the Waste Disposal Act must use approved processing methods (shredding, pyrolysis, or energy utilization) and produce rubber products, rubber raw materials, rubberized asphalt, refined oil, or energy fuel for cement kilns, paper mills, steel mills, or cogeneration plants
  • ·Subsidy applicants must demonstrate capability to process all announced tire sizes and submit processing methods, equipment, flow diagrams, mass-balance charts, and trial-run reports
  • ·Waste generated from tire recovery/processing that constitutes industrial waste must be managed per the Industrial Waste Storage, Transport, and Treatment Methods and Facilities Standards and Article 28 of the Waste Disposal Act
  • ·Export of waste generated from tire processing must comply with Article 38 of the Waste Disposal Act
  • ·Existing recovery/processing operators must achieve compliance with amended provisions within 6 months of the amendment's entry into force
Key Deadlines
—compliance: Existing recovery and processing operators must complete improvements to meet amended standard provisions within 6 months of the amendment's promulgation date
Producer Definition
Not specified in this measure; this standard governs recovery, storage, transport, and processing operators rather than defining producers/manufacturers
Fee Structure
Unknown: This standard does not specify fee amounts or structures; it references the subsidy application mechanism under Article 18, Paragraph 5 of the Waste Disposal Act but does not set fee rates
Enforcement
Central competent authority (中央主管機關) under the Waste Disposal Act: Not specified in this measure; penalties are governed by the Waste Disposal Act
Preemption Notes
This is a national-level technical standard under Taiwan's Waste Disposal Act; it explicitly states that matters not covered by this standard are governed by other applicable laws and regulations
Compliance Dimensions
Bans & RestrictionsOpen-flame/smoking within 6 meters of tire storage areas; storage of flammable materials within 6-meter perimeter (Material Restriction); Tire stacking exceeding 4 meters height (or 6 meters with fixed partitions); zone dimensions exceeding 20 meters width/length (Design Ban)
