1. 1. An Analysis of E-Waste Collection Across Countries

   Kandidat-uppsats, Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för nationalekonomi med statistik

   Författare :Felix Liljhagen; Aron Rehnberg; [2024-02-12]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : In line with technological development, electronic waste has become the world's fastest-growing waste category, increasing three times faster than the world's population. Although e-waste legislation covers about 66% of the world's population, the global recycling rate for e-waste is only 20%. LÄS MER

3. 2. Prospects for standardisation of industrial PET plastics to support the transition towards a circular economy

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Lunds universitet/Miljö- och energisystem

   Författare :Agnes Ström; [2024]
   Nyckelord :Standard; standardisation; industrial PET; polyethylene terephthalate; circular economy; plastic; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : Plastkonsumtionen har ökat markant över tid och har utvecklats till ett viktigt material i dagens samhälle, men med utmaningen att råvaran främst kommer från fossila källor. Användningen av plast är i linje med den linjära ekonomin och den så kallade slit-och-släng-kulturen, vilket bidrar till felaktig hantering av plastavfall och en ineffektiv användning av resurser.

4. 3. Relationship between waste management in student accommodation and students' knowledge of waste management in relation to energy transition

   Kandidat-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Författare :Yong Lin; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Sustainable Development; Energy Transition; Waste Management; Waste Sorting; Pearson’s correlation coefficient; Student Accommodation;

   Sammanfattning : In the context of the current energy transition and sustainable development, the promotion of waste separation and waste management is a good means of promoting the energy transition. Waste, when recycled, can contribute to the energy transition in many ways, for example by generating electricity, heating, recycling into raw materials for reuse and producing biofuels. LÄS MER

5. 4. The effects of weight-based waste tariff on recycling quantities

   Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Umeå universitet/Nationalekonomi

   Författare :Klara Holmgren; [2023]
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : In this paper, I investigate households’ participation in recycling schemes given the pricing policy applied by the municipal waste management organisation. This study aims to provide insights into the effect financial incentive policy has on the recycling quantities of packaging materials. LÄS MER

7. 5. Modelling the chemical recycling of plastic waste via pyrolysis and analysing integration with existing refinery infrastructure

   Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Kemiteknik (CI)

   Författare :Simon Dahl; [2023]
   Nyckelord :Pyrolysis; Recycling; Integration; Modelling; Simulation; Techno-economic; Plastic; Chemical engineering; Technology and Engineering;

   Sammanfattning : Current plastic management is unsustainable as large amounts of plastic end up landfilled or in the ocean, necessitating an expansion of waste management infrastructure. Pyrolysis is a viable chemical recycling option, and in this report a pyrolysis model is constructed in Aspen Plus. LÄS MER
