  1. 1. Developing a closed-loop supply chain to eliminate Single Use Plastic products : Implementing Circular Economy practices driven by EU commission directives

    Master-uppsats, Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

    Författare :Elsa Ottosson; Rania Oweini; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Circular Economy; Circular Business Models; Closed Loop Supply Chain; Single Use Plastic; EU-directive; Small and medium sized enterprise; Post Consumer Plastic Waste;

    Sammanfattning : Single use plastic products (SUPs) are a primary cause of plastic pollution causing significant environmental harm. These products have little to no value after use and are challenging to recycle cost efficiently. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Recycling methods for glass fibre-reinforced plastic polymers : Glass fibre composites in a circular economy?

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Centrum för analys och syntes

    Författare :Hanna Karlsson; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Composites; Glass; Fibre; Reinforced; Recycling; Circular economy; Circularity; Reinforcement; Plastic; Polymer; End-of-life; Reuse; Waste; Materials Chemistry; Chemistry;

    Sammanfattning : The reinforced composite industry is expanding. This raises the need for more sustainable resource use and waste management. A concept to combat both is circularity, creating a loop between the raw resources and the waste. Two important parts of circularity are recycling and reusing. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Mineral wool : From landfill to a sustaianble polymer composite

    Master-uppsats, Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Författare :Noéll Sjöbeck; [2022]
    Nyckelord :recycling; sustainability; waste management; circular economy; mineral wool; construction and demolition industry; composites; polymers; återvinning; hållbarhet; avfallshantering; cirkulär ekonomi; mineralull; bygg- och rivningsindustri; kompositer; polymerer;

    Sammanfattning : The focus of the project is recycling of the insulation material mineral wool. The aim is to investigate the potential of using post-consumer wool from landfill as fiber reinforcement in a polymer matrix. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Towards a More Circular Post-Consumer Textile Waste Management

    Magister-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ekonomisk-historiska institutionen

    Författare :Jeni Jasmin Särmäkari; [2021]
    Nyckelord :Circular Economy; Post-Consumer Textile Waste; Reuse; Recycling; Clothing Industry; Business and Economics;

    Sammanfattning : There has been a substantial increase in demand for textile and clothing with huge implications for post-consumer textile waste management systems. The current ‘buy-and-throw-away’ culture has led to larger quantities of textile and clothing ending up in landfills and incineration than before. LÄS MER

  7. 5. A novel and feasible material recycling technique for end-of-life textiles as All-Cellulose Composites (ACCs)

    Master-uppsats, Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Författare :Belinda Johansson; [2021]
    Nyckelord :all-cellulose composites; end-of-life textiles; denim fabrics; ionic liquid; mechanical properties; sustainability;

    Sammanfattning : Today’s consumption of textiles generates a large volume of textile waste. Therefore, it is needed to find solutions to re-use the textile waste rather recycling fibers into new fibers. Research using pre- and post-consumer textiles in composites is ongoing and an interesting direction. LÄS MER
