Spatial configurations of urban waste management systems considering local uses of recovered products

Session TU.2.B || Future Sustainable Lifestyles – Urban Structure Authors Tanguy, Audrey; Laforest, Valérie; Glaus, Mathias Abstract The transition to a circular economy in Western countries calls for a return to fine-scale management of urban flows. While our current linear economy relies on centralized and mostly external urban metabolisms, a higher degree of circularity implies [...]

Plastic leakage of packaging in LCA – a theoretical framework

Session MO.3.D || Addressing Marine Litter Within Life Cycle Assessment and Management Authors Scagnetti, Carla; Lorenz, Manuel Abstract The proposed theoretical framework explores how packaging could be assessed from gate-to-grave including the probability to become litter. A growing number of studies have confirmed the omnipresence of plastic pollution. Likewise, it has been revealed that marine [...]
