11. Learning from assessments of resource efficiency measures and their impact on resource use and the environment - Based on a case of additive manufacturing and a review of assessment studies
Sammanfattning : Resource efficiency measures have the potential to reduce the environmental and resource impacts of the current linear economy by decreasing the physical flows of material and energy associated with producing and using products and services. In order to investigate this potential, there is a need for assessments from a systems perspective, which for example enables the identification of possible trade-offs between different measures and aspects of resource efficiency depending on the product characteristics.

12. Improved environmental assessment in the development of wood-based products: Capturing impacts of forestry and uncertainties of future product systems
Sammanfattning : The prospect of reducing environmental impacts is a key driver for the development of new wood-based products. But as wood-based products are not necessarily environmentally superior to non-wood alternatives, there is a need to assess the environmental impact of the product and guide the development process.

13. Removal of Micropollutants from Wastewater : evaluation of effect of upgrading ozonation to electro-peroxone
Sammanfattning : The United Nations (UN) has adopted 17 “Sustainable Development Goals” (SDGs) to achieve a clean, better and sustainable future. SDG 6 is to ensure that everyone has access to clean water and sanitation by 2030. LÄS MER
14. Facts and Interpretations in Environmental Assessments of Products
Sammanfattning : Contemporary environmental discourse increasingly emphasises environmental impacts associated with products. In response to this attention, methods for assessing the impacts of products over their life cycles, life cycle assessment (LCA), have been devised. LÄS MER
15. On the contribution of forest bioenergy to climate change mitigation
Sammanfattning : Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have to be drastically reduced to keep global warming below 2 degrees. Bioenergy can play a role in climate change mitigation by substituting for fossil fuels. LÄS MER
