Abstract

Global automobile manufacturers have made a lot of efforts to comply European Union (EU) end-of-life vehicles (ELVs) Directive. Hyundai and Kia have also made a lot of studies to eco-friendly treat our ELVs. Some results of studies have already reflected on our models to produce eco-friendly vehicles. This paper introduces our status of the recycle technology and our measures to respond to EU ELVs Directive.

세계적인 자동차회사들은 EU 폐자동차 처리 규정을 맞추기 위하여 많은 노력을 기울이고 있다. 현대기아자동차 또한 폐자동차를 환경친화적으로 처리하기 위한 기술개발에 많은 연구를 수행하여 왔으며 연구결과가 이미 자동차 제작공정에 반영되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 폐자동차 재활용기술 현황과 EU정을 맞추기 위한 현대기아자동차의 기술개발에 대하여 소개하고자 한다.
