Changing our economic system into a Circular Economy can reduce our dependence on primary materials. Circular Economy requires used products to be collected and supplied through reverse distribution channels. Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE) is a problematic and under-collected stream. The aim of the present paper is to understand the preference of consumers for EEE collection services. Focusing on mobile phones, coffee machines and washing machines as examples, we assessed the stated preferences of Brussels’ consumers using a Choice-Based Conjoint analysis. The results obtained underline the price-driven nature of consumers’ preferences. Consumers also have a high reluctance for incineration but no significant preference for reusing over recycling, and even a preference for recycling in the case of mobile phones. These results also highlight the large differences among product types, especially for the type of service: consumers have a high willingness to pay for home collection of washing machines but have no preference for mobile phones. Income, household structure, professional occupation and availability of a storage room impact the preferences for several collection services’ attributes. These impacts are small and do not concern preferences for recovery processes, identity of the collector, price of collection services and appointment requirements. The results of this study call for a redesign of EEE classifications and for a refinement of collection services to incorporate consumers’ preferences.

了解EEE收集服务的偏好:基于选择的联合分析

将我们的经济体系转变为循环经济可以减少我们对原材料的依赖。循环经济要求用过的产品要通过反向分销渠道进行收集和供应。电气和电子设备(EEE)是一个有问题且收集不足的流。本文的目的是了解消费者对EEE收集服务的偏好。我们以手机,咖啡机和洗衣机为例,通过基于选择的联合分析评估了布鲁塞尔消费者的既定偏好。获得的结果强调了消费者偏好的价格驱动性质。消费者对焚烧也很不情愿,但是对于再利用而不是回收没有明显的偏爱,甚至在移动电话的情况下也偏向于回收。这些结果也凸显了产品类型之间的巨大差异,尤其是在服务类型方面:消费者非常愿意为家庭收藏的洗衣机付费,但对手机没有偏好。收入,家庭结构,专业职业和储藏室的可用性会影响对几种收集服务属性的偏好。这些影响很小,与恢复过程的偏好,收集者的身份,收集服务的价格和任命要求无关。这项研究的结果要求重新设计EEE分类并完善收款服务以纳入消费者的偏好。消费者非常愿意为家庭收藏的洗衣机付费,但对手机没有偏好。收入,家庭结构,专业职业和储藏室的可用性会影响对几种收集服务属性的偏好。这些影响很小,与恢复过程的偏好,收集者的身份,收集服务的价格和任命要求无关。这项研究的结果要求重新设计EEE分类并完善收款服务以纳入消费者的偏好。消费者非常愿意为家庭收藏的洗衣机付款,但对手机没有偏好。收入,家庭结构,专业职业和储藏室的可用性会影响对几种收集服务属性的偏好。这些影响很小,与恢复过程的偏好,收集者的身份,收集服务的价格和任命要求无关。这项研究的结果要求重新设计EEE分类并完善收款服务以纳入消费者的偏好。这些影响很小,与恢复过程的偏好,收集者的身份,收集服务的价格和任命要求无关。这项研究的结果要求重新设计EEE分类并完善收款服务以纳入消费者的偏好。这些影响很小,与恢复过程的偏好,收集者的身份,收集服务的价格和任命要求无关。这项研究的结果要求重新设计EEE分类并完善收款服务以纳入消费者的偏好。
