1. 1. Towards a framework for enabling sustainable production systems: a life-cycle perspective

   Författare :Ilaria Giovanna Barletta; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; energy efficiency; discrete event simulation; e-waste; KPI; triple bottom line; decision support; manufacturing; sustainability;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to scientific knowledge by offering the foundation of a framework that helps stakeholders such as managers and engineers to enable sustainability over the entire lifecycle of the production system, from planning to re-use. In this thesis sustainability can be assessed through performance indicators and is understood through its triple bottom line of: economic, environmental and social sustainability. LÄS MER

3. 2. Synthesis of organobromines as a tool for their characterisation and environmental occurrence assessment

   Författare :Andreas Rydén; Göran Marsh; Vladimir Nikiforov; Stockholms universitet; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Polybrominated diphenyl ethers; Brominated diphenyliodoniums salts; PBDEs; OH-PBDEs; MeO-PBDEs; Synthesis; Analysis; Abbreviations; Metabolites; Marine natural products; E-waste; Brominated flameretardants; miljökemi; Environmental Chemistry;

   Sammanfattning : Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have been intensively used as flame retardants (FRs) and have become ubiquitous environmental pollutants. PBDEs form hydroxylated PBDEs (OH-PBDEs) as metabolites. Further, some OH-PBDEs and methoxy-PBDEs (MeO-PBDEs) are natural products. LÄS MER

4. 3. Electronic Waste Plastics Characterisation and Recycling by Melt-processing

   Författare :Erik Stenvall; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; melt-blending; WEEE; ternary polymer blend; processing conditions; plastics recycling; composition analysis; e-waste;

   Sammanfattning : Melt-processing of blended plastics from waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) is a method to facilitate mechanical recycling, and this might improve the recycling conditions and increase the amounts of plastics being recycled. To ensure the quality of melt-blended plastic waste, it is essential to know the composition of the incoming material and then possibly improve the compatibility between the different polymer phases.

5. 4. Advancing the Frontier of Extended Producer Responsibility: The management of waste electrical and electronic equipment in non-OECD countries

   Författare :Panate Manomaivibool; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Extended Producer Responsibility EPR ; Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment WEEE ; Electronic Waste E-waste ; Policy Transfer; Waste Policy; Product Policy; Recycling;

   Sammanfattning : Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) has become a salient issue in non-OECD countries. With a growing awareness about serious damages to the environment and human health from a lack of safe treatment and recycling of WEEE, there has been a search for policy responses in several of these countries.
