6. The Industrial TransformationTowards the Circular Economy : Dynamics, Drivers and Constraints
Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
7. Circular design through co-creation: Exploring perspectives and future directions for design in a circular economy
Sammanfattning : In the efforts to stimulate sustainable development, the circular economy aims to establish ‘closed-loop’ flows of resources in a way that enables businesses and society to reap benefits from maintaining products, components and materials at their highest utility and value, while simultaneously reducing the generation of waste. Designing for a circular economy will require designers to, more than ever, anticipate how artifacts function and change over time and conceptualise the entire lifecycle (including the design, production, use and end-of-life phase) in a coherent and holistic way.

8. Resource modelling in a circular economy context
Sammanfattning : The concept of the circular economy (CE) is increasingly suggested as a means of reducing environmental impacts and resource use of production and consumption through CE strategies like reuse, remanufacturing, and recycling. However, an increase in “circularity” does not guarantee an improvement in the use of resources over the lifecycle of a product. LÄS MER
9. Circular Business Models for Electric Vehicle Battery Second Life : Challenges, enablers, and preconditions from an ecosystem perspective
Sammanfattning : Sustainability has become a critical issue due to global warming, scarcity of resources, and the high costs of raw materials. It is vital to reconsider linear business models and value creation processes and transition towards circularity. The growth of the electric vehicles market is promising; however, it comes with a major downside. LÄS MER
10. Valorisation of heterogeneous industrial residues towards a circular economy : A systems-oriented investigation on how to facilitate shredder fines valorisation in the Swedish context
Sammanfattning : 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. LÄS MER
