The ELV directive is the first one that springs to mind. Do you mean EU laws or your country's legislation?

i mean EU~

You're looking for info on the following then - major pieces of EU environmental legislation:

ELV Directive 2000/53/EC (End of Life of Vehicles)

Directive 2002/96/EC - WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment)

If you're doing this for school / college you'll need a good explanation of RoHS too.
