A pressing question lies at the heart of our current research: Can materials play a decisive role in either advancing or hindering our efforts to achieve the goals of climate change mitigation?
The Institute of Science and Innovation in Mechanical and Industrial Engineering (INEGI) has joined the CircEUlar project as of August 2023, using the new Hop-on facility offered by the European Research Executive Agency.
The 11th International Conference on Industrial Ecology was held in Leiden (Netherlands) from the 2nd to the 5th July, 2023. On the final day, CMCC team presented the work of CircEUlar’s Work Package 3.
NTNU hand IIASA have presented their latest advancements towards the integration of the value chains for electromobility into the MESSAGEix-Materials-Transport module at the ISIE 2023.
Experts from three EU projects, SUFFICCS, CircEUlar, and CircoMod are pooling their knowledge to compare methods for measuring building stocks and see how their results stack up.
The CircEUlar project has an emphasis on GHG reductions: Oxford islooking at how BIM can help. It is apparent that the benefits for small architects and constructors, working (for example) on single home projects with a single contractor, may be limited, and in addition they may not have the resources to devote to its implementation.
The 11th Biennial Conference of ISIE took place in Leiden between 2-5 July. Dr. Alessio Mastrucci presented a study conducted by IIASA’s researchers affiliated with the Energy, Climate, and Environment (ECE) program with the title: “Circularity strategies for China’s building sector: a scenario analysis”.
The 11th Biennial Conference of ISIE took place in Leiden between 2-5 July. IIASA presented the latest research on circularity in chemicals industry in the scope of CircEUlar in the special session: “Bringing Industrial Ecology and the circular economy into integrated assesment models”.
Empas Technology and Society Lab addresses the environmental benefits and potentials for repurposing materials and functions from current fossil stocks within the frame of the CircEUlar project.
CircEUlar has been included in the “Good Practice” section of the European Circular Economy Stakeholder Platform, marking it as an example of a successful circular economy project. This opens up valuable opportunities for increased visibility and stakeholder engagement.
