  1. 16. Circling the Squares : Radical Innovation and Management Control Systems in the Circular Economy

    Författare :Johan Arekrans; Sofia Ritzén; Rafael Laurenti; Johan Frishammar; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; circular economy; innovation; innovation management; sustainability; management control systems; cirkulär ekonomi; innovation; innovationsledning; hållbarhet; kontrollmekanismer; Machine Design; Maskinkonstruktion;

    Sammanfattning : An economic system built upon the sale of tangible goods produced using finite resources is inherently unsustainable. The idea of a Circular Economy (CE) as a viable pathway to sustainability has gained considerable attention from academia, policymakers, and the business community. LÄS MER

  2. 17. Policy Framework for Material Resource Efficiency : Pathway Towards a Circular Economy

    Författare :Leonidas Milios; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; resource efficiency; circular economy; policy studies; reuse; remanufacturing; recycling;

    Sammanfattning : The strategic direction of the European Union (EU) over the past twenty years has focused on increasing resource productivity and innovation in the economy, aiming at the efficient use and secured supplies of resources, economic growth and job creation, with fewer environmental impacts. One of the basic premises of the new ‘Green Deal’ for Europe is the promotion of the circular economy. LÄS MER

  3. 18. Fruit wastes to biomaterials : Development of biofilms and 3D objects in a circular economy system

    Författare :Veronika Bátori; Kristiina Oksman; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Nyckelord :apple pomace; biodegradable; bioplastics; circular economy; orange waste; resource recovery; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

    Sammanfattning : To address the current plastic pollution problem, the replacement of conventional plastics with bioplastics can be considered. Although the land use of crop cultivation for bioplastics is still negligible, there is an increasing interest in the utilisation of lignocellulosic waste products for the production of bioplastics.

  4. 19. Resource efficient products in a circular economy – The case of consumables. From environmental and resource assessment to design guidelines

    Författare :Siri Willskytt; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; product characteristics; circular product design; resource efficiency; LCA; consumable products; ecodesign; design guidelines; circular economy;

    Sammanfattning : The circular economy (CE) is a concept to challenge the unsustainable production, consumption, and waste management of products, through the recirculation of resources and products through various means while reducing environmental impact. Within this concept, many measures are recommended for reducing environmental impact and resource use. LÄS MER

  5. 20. Landfill mining approach for resource recovery from glass dumps into the circular economy

    Författare :Richard Mutafela; William Hogland; Lennart Mårtensson; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Resource recovery; landfill mining; hazardous waste; hydrometallurgical extraction; geophysical mapping; circular economy; Återvinning av resurser; gruvdrift; farligt avfall; hydrometallurgisk utvinning; geofysisk kartläggning; cirkulär ekonomi; Miljövetenskap; Environmental Science;

    Sammanfattning : Landfills and open dumps have been the most cost-effective waste disposal option, resulting in over 500,000 landfills and dumps in the EU alone. They pose significant environmental and health threats due to emission of toxic gases and release of persistent contaminants to soil and groundwater, triggering a considerable global economic impact annually.
