ANNEX 2- Answer to question 7 from Europump Potential derogations marked for reconsideration - Analysis of alternatives and socio-economic analysis: Paragraphs 5 and 6 of the proposed restriction entry text (see table starting on page 4 of the summary of the Annex XV restriction report) include several potential derogations for reconsideration after the consultation (in [square brackets]).

Lens cleanability and how to clean lenses: a review WHITE PAPER This technical paper summarises the results of the latest research on the topic of lens cleanability while also taking the wearer's perspective into account.

Request for exemption - EBulb Markus Fiebig (Senior Business Development Manager, JOB Group) Summary of request for exemption - EBulb Why we believe an exemption for EBulb can be justified: Goal of this presentation: Request for exemption, unlimited Relevance for society: High because EBulb reduces the risk of fires caused by electricity and enables digitalization in sensitive areas Impact for environment: Low Expected emissions in the air by 2030: 92,50 mL(mililiters!)

The exemption application of perfluorosulfonic acid(PFSA) resins and perfluorocarboxylic acid(PFCA) resins and ion exchange membranes for chlor-alkali industry Hangjin Jinxi Chlor Alkali Chemical Co., Ltd. has a production capacity of 450,000 tons of chloralkali, and has been committed to the healthy development of chlor-alkali industry, keeping up with industry requirements and constantly updating the production process.
