1. 1. Development and Application of an End-of-Life Framework

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

   Författare :Daniel Blomberg; David Lorang; [2023]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : As the global climate crisis becomes more urgent, organizations are forced to find ways of reducing their environmental footprint to meet changing climate policies and consumer demands. As the automotive industry is adapting to the shift from internal combustion engines to electrification, as well as the shift from traditional linear business models to circular ones, there is a chance for new actors entering the market to adopt circular business models from their inception, giving them an edge over incumbent firms who have slower adaption times.

3. 2. A European Material Kuznets Curve

   Kandidat-uppsats, Stockholms universitet/Nationalekonomiska institutionen

   Författare :Pyry Järvinen; Emil Fernström; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Material Kuznets Curve; Environmental Kuznets Curve; Economic Growth; Economics Development; Material Footprint; Emissions; Sustainable Growth; Decoupling; Europe;

   Sammanfattning : This bachelor thesis investigates the correlation between 28 European countries’material footprints (MF), as proxied by their Raw Material Consumption (RMC)per capita, and the environmental impact indicated by their carbon dioxide (CO2)emissions per capita, respectively, with their economic development, measured bytheir purchase power parity adjusted gross domestic product (GDP) per capita,during the period of 2008 to 2019. Specifically, through the theoretical frameworkof the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) and by utilizing Fixed EffectsOrdinary Least Squares regression models as well as Pooled Mean Groupestimation, the thesis asks whether or not evidence can be found for the possibleexistence of an EKC, an inverted-U shaped relationship between environmentaldegradation and economic development, within this European context.

   Sammanfattning : Textilindustrin är en av de största förorenarna i världen, med en enorm miljöpåverkan från både produktion och avfallshantering. Tygrester är ett av de största avfallsproblemen inom textilindustrin, med miljontals ton av tyg som slängs varje år. LÄS MER

5. 4. Environmental impact assessment of construction materials in a battery factory

   Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbara byggnader

   Författare :Monica Angulo Diaz; [2023]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : This paper explores the environmental impact of construction materials in a battery factory, with a particular focus on their global warming potential, acidification, and eutrophication potential. The production of construction materials is found to contribute significantly to the overall environmental impact of a building, with steel and concrete identified as having the highest impact among the materials analyzed.

7. 5. JÄMFÖRELSE AV KLIMATPÅVERKANFÖR GLASULL OCH POLYURETAN : MPARISON OF CLIMATE IMPACT FOR GLASS WOOL AND POYURETHANE

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Örebro universitet/Institutionen för naturvetenskap och teknik

   Författare :Kaleb Abraham; Andreas Lust; [2023]
   Nyckelord :: Climate impact; Climate declaration; LCA; EPD; GWP; CO2e; glass wool; polyurethane; Klimatpåverkan; Klimatdeklaration; LCA; EPD; GWP; CO2e; glasull; polyuretan;

   Sammanfattning : This study examines the climate impact of the thermal insulation materials, glass wool and polyurethane. Two wall constructions with a size of one square meter are used in the study to compare their carbon footprints and determine which material has the lowest environmental impact. For the walls to be comparable, they need to have the same U-value. LÄS MER
