State-of-the-art environmental assessment of waste management systems rely on data for the physico-chemical composition of individual material fractions comprising the waste in question. To derive the necessary inventory data for different scopes and systems, literature data from different sources and backgrounds are consulted and combined. This study provides an overview of physico-chemical waste...
Sound waste management and optimisation of resource recovery require reliable data on solid waste generation and composition. In the absence of standardised and commonly accepted waste characterisation methodologies, various approaches have been reported in literature. This limits both comparability and applicability of the results. In this study, a waste sampling and sorting methodology for efficient...
One of the resilient strategies to assure a long term supply of critical metals is the implementation of closed loop management systems, in which the of end-of-life (EoL) recycling plays a central role. Since the major application of primary indium is liquid crystal displays (LCD), strategy development has to focus on their recycling and their use as secondary raw material. A literature survey, own...
Sustainability has become an urgent requirement and challenge for society as well as for decision makers in policy and economy, considering the limited resources and growing consumption. Sustainability is interpreted in ecological, economic and social dimensions. Ecologically, non-renewable resources must not be disposed anymore but regained in product and material cycles. Managing material cycles...
