    Abstract : The notion of the circular economy has recently been posited as a vital strategy to mitigate climate change. At the industrial level, the circular economy envisions socio-industrial transformation to closed-loop material systems. READ MORE

  3. 3. Valorisation of heterogeneous industrial residues towards a circular economy : A systems-oriented investigation on how to facilitate shredder fines valorisation in the Swedish context

    Author : Tharaka Gunaratne; Joakim Krook; Hans Andersson; Jouni Korhonen; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Circular economy; Systems analysis; Valorisation; Resource recovery;

    Abstract : In the context of circular economy in the European region the role of the recycling industry has become ever important. Shredder fines (or fines) is a heterogeneous fine-granular production residue of the shredding industry, and is currently disposed of. Shredder fines presents a disposal problem and incurs handling costs to the shredding industry. READ MORE

  4. 4. Spatial Design for Circularity - Exploring Spatial Aspects in Housing Design with Focus on the Kitchen

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; spatial design; value proposition; circular economy; sociomateriality; adaptability; kitchen; circular design; housing design;

    Abstract : The building industry and especially multiresidential buildings are responsible for a large portion of environmental impact, energy use and resource exploitation. Hence, there is a need to shift towards more sustainable design solutions for such buildings, which might be achieved by adopting circular economy strategies. READ MORE

  5. 5. Carbon materials: towards a circular economy through thermochemical recycling of mixed waste

    Author : Isabel Cañete Vela; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; circular economy; recycling; mixed waste; thermochemical; carbon materials;

    Abstract : Carbon materials, such as paper, wood, plastic and textiles, play an important role in our everyday life, from clothes and packaging to infrastructure. However, the use of those materials follows a linear way. We take carbon resources, we make products, and we discharge them in a short amount of time, producing GHG emissions along its supply chain.
