  1. 1. Designing out waste - Exploring barriers for material recirculation

    Författare :Isabel Ordonez Pizarro; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; waste sorting; sustainable development; Water; Waste; Urban; waste management; Resources; resource recovery; ​Recycling; designing with waste; recycling;

    Sammanfattning : This doctoral thesis has investigated what hinders material recirculation in society, to later suggest possible ways to support material recirculation in the future. Since material recirculation is proposed as a way to use waste materials for new production, it was deemed relevant to investigate two separate case studies that enabled recirculation from production systems and waste management.

    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solid waste; resource recovery; material loops; waste sorting; user centred design; design with waste; waste collection systems; waste sorting;

    Sammanfattning : Waste is one of the biggest challenges faced by our society. If not handled correctly, waste pollutes our natural environment with devastating results. However, it seems almost unavoidable that our society generates waste. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Food packaging design to support sorting behavior

    Författare :Babak Nemat; Mariano Jr Reyes Ramirez; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Household waste; design attributes; packaging waste; design approaches; sorting behavior; sustainability; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Sammanfattning : Due to population growth, urbanization, higher income levels, and intensive use of packaging products, the amount of waste generated by households, including food packaging waste, has been increasing continuously worldwide, posing a massive threat to societies and the environment. Therefore, proper waste management has become a challenging environmental issue and priority for governments. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Household waste collection : factors and variations

    Författare :Lisa Dahlén; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Waste Science and Technology; Avfallsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Ambitious household waste recycling programs have been introduced in Sweden and several other countries during recent decades. Many different waste- sorting and collection schemes have been developed, but the evaluation and comparison of the results is made difficult by the lack of comparable data. LÄS MER
