bed. Therefore they do not have any effect on the environment apart from emitting light.
The most important substance in discharge lamps as far as the environment is concer-
ned is mercury. Discharge lamps must contain some mercury in order to generate light.
By using a patented dosing procedure, OSRAM has succeeded in reducing the amount
of mercury in most models to the currently minimum needed to guarantee reliable ope-
ration of around 3 mg per lamp.
WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) regulations state that in Europe by
July 1, 2005 all old electrical equipment including failed discharge lamps must be sent
for proper recycling. For private consumers this means that they will have to hand the
old lamps in to local recycling centres free of charge.
In the B2B sector (Business to Business), discharge lamps with mercury residue qualify
as waste requiring special supervision (special waste code) with a corresponding duty
to dispose of them carefully. This applies for example to mercury vapour lamps and
(compact) fluorescent lamps.
In Germany this is, today, regulated by the „Kreislaufwirtschaftsgesetz“ and it’s
legislation.
All the above-mentioned lamps affected by the WEEE regulations have a
symbol on the packaging showing a dustbin with a line through it.
