1. 1. Beyond Waste Management : Challenges to Sustainable Global Physical Resource Management

   Författare :Jagdeep Singh; Björn Frostell; Olga Kordas; Anju Singh; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Sustainable global physical resource management; global waste management; systems thinking; life cycle thinking; planning framework; global environmental justice; circular economy; Industrial Ecology; Industriell ekologi;

   Sammanfattning : Current physical resource management (PRM) was investigated in a global perspective in this thesis, to gain a deeper understanding of its implications in a sustainability perspective. In particular, the main challenges to the current PRM system and the kinds of systemic changes needed for sustainable PRM were examined. LÄS MER

4. 3. Towards a Sustainable Resource Management : A Broader Systems Approach to Product Design and Waste Management

   Författare :Jagdeep Singh; Björn Frostell; William Hogland; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Resource Management; Product Design; Waste Management Challenges; Systems Thinking; Sustainability Science; Industrial Ecology; Industriell ekologi; Resource Management; Product Design; Waste Management Challenges; Systems Thinking; Sustainability Science;

   Sammanfattning : Rapid economic growth, urbanisation and increasing population have caused (materially intensive) resource consumption to increase, and consequently the release of large amounts of waste to the environment. Numerous technological and operational approaches to resource management have been introduced throughout the system of production, consumption and waste management. LÄS MER

5. 4. Sustainable Sewage Sludge Management : Addressing Multidisciplinary Challenges

   Författare :Torben Bauer; Lale Andreas; Elisabeth Wetterlund; Anders Lagerkvist; Anders Damgaard; Christina Dornack; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Avfallsteknik; Waste Science and Technology;

   Sammanfattning : This PhD thesis focuses on multidisciplinary challenges in sewage sludge management and how they can be addressed to increase sustainability. Sewage sludge is the residual from wastewater treatment. It contains both resources and contaminants making its management challenging. LÄS MER

7. 5. Developing strategies for improved economic performance and reduced climate impact of landfill mining in Europe

   Författare :John Laurence Esguerra; Joakim Krook; Niclas Svensson; Steven Van Passel; Anders Damgaard; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; waste management; landfill management; resource recovery; sustainability assessment; emerging concept;

   Sammanfattning : Landfill mining refers to the re-circulation of resources from the previously deposited wastes. It is an alternative approach for managing landfills that integrates resource recovery with site remediation. LÄS MER
