  1. 1. Life Cycle Costing : Supporting companies towards a circular economy

    Författare :Marianna Lena Kambanou; Mattias Lindahl; Tomohiko Sakao; Giuditta Pezzotta; Linköpings universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; life cycle costing; total cost of ownership; circular strategies; products as a service; through life costing; life cycle management; circular economy;

    Sammanfattning : Increased consumption has resulted in the depletion of non-renewable resources and an explosion in waste. A circular economy proposes to sustain economic growth but decouple it from resource consumption by keeping products and materials in the economy. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Environmental Considerations in the Zero-waste Valorisation of Bauxite Residue : A Life Cycle Perspective

    Sammanfattning : Bauxite residue, also known as red mud, is produced in large quantities as a result of alumina refining (the first stage in aluminium production), and is one of the world’s most abundant and important industrial wastes. As demand for aluminium continues to increase and space to store this residue diminishes, the potential to utilise bauxite residue as a secondary resource is increasingly being considered by the alumina industry.

  3. 3. Climate impact of the sustainable use of forest biomass in energy and material system : a life cycle perspective

    Författare :Sylvia Haus; Johan Bergh; Bishnu Chandra Poudel; Krushna Mahapatra; Göran Berndes; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; forest residues; fossil fuel substitution; forest management; radiative forcing; land use change; climate change; bioenergy; Bioenergiteknik Energi- och Miljöteknik; Bioenergy Technology; Byggteknik; Civil engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Human society releases greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere while providing housing, heat, mobility and industrial production. Man-made greenhouse gas emissions are the main causes of climate change, coming mainly from burning fossil fuels and land-use changes. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Life Cycle Thinking in Environmentally Preferable Procurement

    Författare :Elisabeth Hochschorner; Göran Finnveden; Anna Björklund; Ann-Marie Tillman; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :Life Cycle Thinking; Life Cycle Assessment; Environmental Procurement; Life Cycle Costing; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : Products generate environmental impacts during their life cycle by consuming raw materials and energy, releasing emissions and producing waste. A procurement organisation can be a considerable driving force for more environmentally friendly products e.g. by requiring that products meet certain environmental criteria. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Energy efficient renovation in a life cycle perspective : A case study of a Swedish multifamily-building

    Författare :Ricardo Ramirez Villegas; Ola Eriksson; Thomas Olofsson; Harpa Birgisdottir; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Buildings; renovation; greenhouse gas emissions; district heating; energy efficiency; building environmental assessment tools; energy use; space heating; life cycle assessment; life cycle costing; payback; scenarios simulation; Byggnadsrenovering; växthusgasutsläpp; fjärrvärme; energieffektivitet; system för miljöcertifiering av byggnader; energianvändning; byggnadsuppvärmning; livscykelanalys; livscykelkostnader; återbetalning; scenariosimulering; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development; Reesbe företagsforskarskola;

    Sammanfattning : Energy use in the European Union is increasing. At the same time, it is estimated that by the year 2050 most of the EU population will be living in currently existing buildings. Some of these buildings are or will be in need of renovation, and they have identified a target to reduce overall energy use. LÄS MER
