Circular Economy’s Potential to Satisfy the EU’s Critical Metals Demand for Green Transition KU Leuven
The Circular Economy as a requirement for smart information system designs KU Leuven
Information gaps significantly hinder the circular economy (CE). Smart information systems (IS) will play a central role in implementing the CE and the shift toward it. Therefore, implementers of future IS architectures and researchers developing new IS designs must know how CE objectives can be included in the system requirements. Requirements are the starting point of the design process of a smart system and are the basis for assessing the ...
Defining the goals of Product Passports by circular product strategies KU Leuven
Information gaps are one of the major obstacles identified for the realization of a circular economy. Therefore, so-called product passports (PPs) are presented as a solution in the literature. A PP should provide the necessary information to all stakeholders along the product’s value chain to act more circularly. In general, information systems (IS) close information gaps, and in this study, we identify PPs as an instance of green IS. Although ...
Integrated early-stage environmental and economic assessment of emerging technologies and its applicability to the case of plasma gasification KU Leuven University of Antwerp
How to measure a circular economy: A holistic method compiling policy monitors KU Leuven
To date, the methods of compiling policy monitors for the circular economy (CE) often focus on recycling heavily and neglect higher circular strategies and environmental and social impacts. With 17 stakeholders from different domains meeting in several workshops, we developed a holistic method to compile indicators for policymakers steering the CE transition. Our method derives from a societal needs perspective and describes the manufactured, ...
