Abstract Building stock growth around the world drives extensive material consumption and environmental impacts. Future impacts will be dependent on level rate of socioeconomic development, along with use supply strategies. Here we evaluate material-related greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions for residential commercial buildings their reduction potentials in 26 global regions by 2060. For a middle-of-the-road baseline scenario, building see an increase 3.5 to 4.6 Gt CO2eq yr-1 between 2020–2060....
The potential impacts on gross domestic product, employment, and carbon emissions of implementing a circular economy have been modelled at the national multiregional levels using multiple scenarios. However, there is still no consensus magnitude transition to whether it will generate 'win-win-win' situation in terms macroeconomic, social environmental benefits. In this paper, we review more than 300 scenarios time frame from 2020 2050. We classify each scenario according degree intervention...
A circular economy is an industrial system that restorative or regenerative by intention design. During the last decade, became attractive paradigm to increase global welfare while minimizing environmental impacts of economic activities. Although several studies concerning potential benefits and drawbacks policies implement new have been performed, there currently no standardized theoretical model software execute such assessment. In order fill this gap, in present paper we show how perform...
Due to increased policy attention on circular economy strategies, many studies have quantified material use and recovery at national global scales. However, there has been no quantitative analysis of the unrecovered waste that can be potentially reintegrated into as materials or products. This interpreted gap circularity. In this paper we define circularity a country generated waste, plus old removed from stocks durable products disposed (i.e. stock depletion), minus recovered waste. We...
To conserve resources and enhance the environmental performance, China has launched "Zero waste" concept, focused on reutilization of solid waste recovery materials, including copper. Although several studies have assessed copper demand recycling, there is a lack understanding how different management options would potentially reduce primary associated impacts in context energy transition. This study addresses this gap view transition to low-carbon system optimization combining MFA LCA...
Abstract Circular business models (CBMs) and their potential environmental benefits have been widely assessed by using life cycle assessment (LCA). However, most LCA studies consider static systems assume instant full technology adoption, limiting the analysis of implications circular transitions. Considering diffusion in may bring a better understanding adoption CBMs. Nevertheless, is also related to stock dynamics, which are difficult represent classic models. To overcome these issues, we...
Around 40% of global raw materials that are extracted every year accumulate as in-use stocks in the form buildings, infrastructure, transport equipment, and other durable goods.Material inflows to a key component circularity transition, since reintegration those back into economy, at end stock's life cycle, means less extraction is required.Thus, understanding geographical, material, sectoral distribution material globally crucial for circular economy policies.Here we quantify distributions...
El concepto de sustentabilidad ha sido utilizado en un extenso número áreas estudio, lo cual implicado múltiples interpretaciones sobre la definición sustentabilidad. Este documento desarrolló manera crítica marco conceptual para general a partir propiedades termodinámicas que son aplicadas sistemas adaptivos complejos. Primeramente, se hizo referenica los orígenes percepción desarrollo sustentable y limitación su aplicación poder analizar interacción entre sistema entorno. Posteriormente,...
