  1. 1. Safe, Sustainable Discharge of Electric Vehicle Batteries as a Pre-treatment Step to Crushing in the Recycling Process

    Master-uppsats, KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

    Författare :Nicole Nembhard; [2019]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, an increase in global temperature to above 1.5°C can be halted but would require immediate intervention to reach net zero emissions in the next 15 years. This intervention would have to make use of sustainable energy technologies such as net-zero carbon systems for automobiles. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Ökad plaståtervinning vs giftfria materialflöden - En analys av ändringen av POPs-förordningen

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

    Författare :Emilia Sevelius; [2019]
    Nyckelord :Circular economy; recycling; chemicals; WEEE; environmental-political goals; POPs recast; contradictions; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : To realize the transition from a linear to a circular economy within the EU, the union has developed environmental-political goals and implemented them through policies that take a product’s whole life cycle into account. Two important objectives that are expressed through these policies are increased recycling and the phasing out of hazardous chemicals such as persistent organic pollutants which have negative effects on human health and sensitive ecosystems.

  3. 3. Felsorterat farligt hushållsavfall i nordvästra Skåne - Innehåll, skillnader, trender samt förslag för framtida arbete

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildning

    Författare :Helena Sandmer; [2017]
    Nyckelord :Household hazardous waste HHW ; waste composition analyses; municipal residual waste; Sweden. Farligt hushållsavfall; plockanalyser; kommunalt restavfall; Sverige.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Annually, approximately 11 000 tons of hazardous waste ends up in the residual waste in Sweden, causing economic losses as well as negative environmental- and health impacts. This study examines the extent of incorrect sorting of household hazardous waste (HHW) in six municipalities in southern Sweden. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Ecolabelling. Criteria development for rechargeable batteries in ICT products

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Internationella miljöinstitutet

    Författare :Dmytro Kapotia; [2017]
    Nyckelord :lithium-ion battery Li-Ion battery ; Type I ecolabelling; rechargeable battery; product environmental properties; criteria development; sustainable development.; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : This research puts together two massive areas: voluntary certification programmes, specifically Type I ecolabelling (ISO 14024), aimed to incentivise and assist in providing customers with sustainable in all meanings products; and rechargeable batteries – inalienable element of portable electronic products. Moreover, the importance of batteries lifts up to an absolutely new level – with a rapid development of electric vehicles and energy storage systems, often used to accumulate energy from renewable energy sources.

  5. 5. Design requirement on recyclability under the Ecodesign Directive. A possible synergy between waste and product policies on electric and electronic equipment?

    Magister-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Juridiska institutionen

    Författare :Sahra Svensson; [2016-02-24]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The newly released 'New Circular Economy Package' puts emphasis on resource efficiency through increased recycling, as well as ecodesign of products to accomplish it. The waste stream of electronic and electronic equipment (WEEE) is increasing and since these types of products contain valuable material the material contained in them should be recycled. LÄS MER
