  1. 1. Circular Business Model Design : Business Opportunities from Retaining Value of Products and Materials

    Författare :Julia L.K. Nußholz; Internationella miljöinstitutet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Circular Economy; business model innovation; circular business model; Resource efficiency; Reuse; Life cycle management; Value creation; sustainability assessment; Circular business model tools;

    Sammanfattning : Today our economy is largely based on linear material flows, and many products, such as electronics, furniture,building materials and textiles, are discarded even when they could still be used. Without urgent action, globalwaste is expected to increase by 70% by 2060 and global materials use is expected to more than double. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Unpacking Employer Branding in the Information Technology Industry

    Författare :Amir Dabirian; Terrence E. Brown; John Ford; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Employer branding; employer branding value propositions; employer attractiveness; human resources management; recruitment; retention; psychological contract; IT industry; IBM Watson; artificial intelligence; Industrial Economics and Management; Industriell ekonomi och organisation;

    Sammanfattning : Attracting and retaining the best talent is a concern, particularly for knowledge-based firms in high-turnover industries, which rely on a limited supply of highly qualified individuals (Ewing, Pitt, De Bussy, & Berthon, 2002). In 2014, 36% of global employers criticized talent shortages, and in a 2015 study, 73% of CEOs reported being concerned about the availability of workers with key skills (Mosley, 2015). LÄS MER

  4. 3. Long-term development, modeling and management of nutrient loading to inland and coastal waters

    Författare :Amelie Darracq; Georgia Destouni; Andrea Rinaldo; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Nutrients; catchments; environmental management; climate change; population and lifestyle development; subsurface-surface water interactions; long-term simulations; nutrient retention; modeling; hydrology; transport processes; biogeochemistry; scaling; transport and reaction rates; Physical Geography; geografi med naturgeografisk inriktning;

    Sammanfattning : Environmental and water system protection and restoration require accurate knowledge and quantification of waterborne pollutant transport, retention-release and transformation processes taking place in the subsurface, river, lake and sea water systems, and at the interfaces between these systems. This thesis investigates the importance of spatial model resolution for such quantification and the possible long-term nutrient load development under different human perturbations and nutrient source management scenarios in the Swedish Norrström drainage basin, based on simulations with the GIS-based dynamic nutrient transport-attenuation model POLFLOW.

  5. 4. Renewable Energy and Nutrient Valorization from Anaerobic Digestion : Resource-Efficient Solutions

    Författare :Sandra Carlos-Pinedo; Zhao Wang; Ola Eriksson; Shveta Soam; Henrik Wenzel; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solid-state anaerobic digestion; methane yield; digestate; systems analysis; modelling; life cycle assessment; Torrötning; metanutbyte; biogödsel; systemanalys; modellering; livscykelanalys;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents a comprehensive analysis aimed at understanding process performance, methane yield, and key influencing factors within the context of solid-state anaerobic digestion (SS-AD). SS-AD is used to treat organic material with high solids content, which can be challenging to address by alternative methods. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Identifying Strategic Initiatives to Promote Urban Sustainability

    Författare :Carina Weingaertner; Örjan Svane; Karolina Isaksson; Dag Kittang; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; sustainable urban development; transformative change; research methodology development; situations of opportunity; field of options; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP;

    Sammanfattning : is thesis explores the overarching topic of the capacity of strategic urban development decisions and initiatives (including planning initiatives) to positively and powerfully influence the ability of a city to promote sustainable patterns of development. The work is presented in six scientific papers, the first four of which focus on the development of an inter-disciplinary conceptual framework and research methodology. LÄS MER
