6. Värdeflödesanalys med en kompletterande informationsflödesanalys : En fallstudie inom Tillverkning-Mot-Order
Master-uppsats, Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknikSammanfattning : Med ständiga förändringar i produktefterfrågan och mix samt ökande antal nya produkter på global nivå växer behovet av att tillverka produkter som är anpassade till varje kunds egna behov. Företag som tillämpar tillverkningstypen Tillverkning-Mot-Order (TMO) har därför stigit i antal samtidigt som tillverkningsprocesserna blir mindre repetitiva och produktionssystemen allt mer komplexare.

7. Strategic targets and KPIs for improved value chain circularity and sustainability performance : A case study of a large manufacturing enterprise within the energy sector
Master-uppsats, Linköpings universitet/Industriell miljöteknikSammanfattning : Global consumption levels currently extend far beyond what planet Earth in terms of natural resources can regenerate in a sustainable manor and will by 2050 reach levels corresponding to what it would require three Earths to sustain. This overexploitation and unsustainable management of the Earth’s resources in combination with the necessity of mitigating climate change and reaching net zero CO2 emissions by 2050 require action across all sectors, not least the manufacturing industry.

8. Coupling of Material Flow Analysis and Life Cycle Assessment to Analyze the Urban Metabolism of a Swedish City
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Cities are responsible for an increasingly large share of environmental impacts linked to their resource consumption and production of waste. Understanding how the flows of materials and energy in urban systems contribute to environmental impacts is fundamental for urban sustainability. LÄS MER
9. Exploring the role of business intermediaries to advance circular bioeconomy : multi case study on plant-essential nutrient recycling firms and users in Sweden
Master-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of EconomicsSammanfattning : Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are key biological nutrients for global crop production and are directly linked to global food security. Despite the enormous agricultural expansion in the past century, excessive use of these elements is causing biochemical imbalances that lead to overstepping the ‘planetary boundaries’ beyond what the earth can hold.

10. Swedish Nitrogen Flows : A national budget of anthropogenically induced reactive nitrogen
Master-uppsats, KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknikSammanfattning : Nitrogen is a fundamental element in all forms of life and a crucial component of our agricultural productivity and global food security. However, excess nitrogen caused by human activity poses a serious threat to the environment and human health. LÄS MER
