This document discusses implementing a green economy through industrial ecology and eco-efficiency. It provides definitions of key concepts from the United Nations like green economy and eco-efficiency. It also summarizes strategies like cleaner production, industrial symbiosis, and product service systems. Specific examples are given of initiatives in areas like water recycling, waste reduction, and expanded polystyrene recycling. Overall the document outlines an approach to transitioning industry to be more sustainable and resource efficient through industrial ecology principles.
Fly Ash represents, a major environmental problem. heavy metals can leach from stored fly ash into ground water and endangered the health of the surrounding population. Additionally, storage ponds can breach, causing a dangerous release of massive quantities of fly ash. In this project, we try to make eco friendly rubber using fly ash. #SciChallenge2017

The Confederation of European Paper Industries (CEPI) has published these illustrations showing resource efficiency examples in the pulp and paper industry.
We know that the world’s growing population is putting increasing pressure on global resources and that the world’s current consumption patterns are simply not sustainable in the longer term. As the world’s finite supply of fossil fuels diminishes, in direct contrast to the increasing demands of a larger population, we will need to move to a circular economy based on renewable resources and optimum efficiency. In contrast to the linear model of take, make, dispose, a circular economy is a framework that takes insights from living systems. It considers that our systems should work like organisms, processing nutrients that can be fed back into the cycle, whether biological or technical, which is where phrases such as “closed loop” or “regenerative” come in.
It’s also why we believe Europe’s paper industry has a very bright future – because it is already a benchmark model of resource efficiency and a perfect fit for the circular economy. It is inherently sustainable by nature: Based on renewable, recyclable raw materials, Europe’s paper industry can produce second-generation biofuels to replace crude oil as well as renewable bio-based products. It provides packaging solutions to avoid food waste and it uses residues from the woodworking industry as its raw materials.

Legislation over the last several years has greatly expanded the universe of energy tax incentives available to ordinary businesses. The bulk of these incentives are geared toward conservation, energy efficiency, and alternative and renewable fuels. Businesses can also take advantage of many of the energy tax incentives meant for consumers or the energy industry.

Among some of the world’s top corporate leaders, there’s a growing understanding that traditional business models—built on the presumption of unlimited and cheap natural resources—must be reworked for 21st century realities. The circular economy represents a markedly different way of doing business, replacing established practices like planned obsolescence with new approaches to generating profits. This report examines how brands from Puma and Ford to Ikea and Starbucks are becoming more circular, why this concept is gaining more adherents now and implications for brands. The circular economy is an important topic not only because the approach is far better for the planet but also because tapping into its principles may well be essential to long-term competitiveness.

On Monday 2nd March the Circular Economy Task Force co-hosted a conference with the Dutch Embassy in London on how to promote the trade in circular economy goods and services between the UK and the Netherlands. The Dutch ambassador Laetitia van den Assum welcomed an expert group of business, policy and academia representatives to a discussion organised around three issues: how policy can support a circular economy, how to deliver a ‘North Sea Resource Roundabout’, and what are the circular economy opportunities for plastics?

Presently most electrical/electronic equipment (EEE) is not designed for recycling, let alone for circulation. Plastics in these products account for 20% of material use, and through better design, significant environmental and financial savings could be gained.
Technological solutions and circular design opportunities already exist, but they haven’t been implemented yet.
Some challenges, such as ease of disassembly, could be resolved through better communication and by sharing learnings across the value chain.
Instead of WEEE, we should focus on developing CEEE: Circular Electrical and Electronic Equipment.
The case examples of this report show how different stages of the lifecycle can be designed so that plastics circulation becomes possible and makes business sense.
greenLIFE nella riunione Plenaria del dialogo sociale “Concia” alla Commissione europea
Lo scorso 23 novembre 2016 a Bruxelles, organizzata dalle parti sociali, il sindacato europeo industriAll e Cotance, Confederazione delle associazioni nazionali dei conciatori europei
Il progetto greenLIFE che vede coinvolte cinque aziende della filiera conciaria vicentina, Acque del Chiampo, Conceria Dani, Gruppo Mastrotto, Ikem, Ilsa, sarà presentato al meeting plenario del Comitato sul dialogo sociale, sezione concia ospitato dalla Commissione europea il prossimo 23 novembre a Bruxelles. La riunione segue l’adozione dello scorso dicembre 2015 di un manifesto redatto dalle parti sociali e dai rappresentanti industriali che sintetizza gli obiettivi per il futuro della concia europea, identificando le maggiori sfide. Tra queste la riduzione dell’impatto ambientale della filiera, la necessità di sviluppo in un’ottica di economia circolare e sancisce l’identità del settore come una industria del riciclo, la cui materia prima è di fatto un sottoprodotto dell’industria alimentare. Se dovessero continuare i trend di consumo e di crescita della popolazione - si legge nel manifesto - nel 2050 saranno necessarie le risorse di due pianeti e mezzo per soddisfarli. Lo sviluppo verso una economia circolare è quindi ineludibile e la sfida per il settore conciario riguarda principalmente la riduzione dell’uso di acqua e di prodotti chimici ad alto impatto, sottolineando la necessità di innovazione in questi ambiti. Ecco che il progetto greenLIFE si presenta ai rappresentanti europei come esempio di una fruttuosa collaborazione tra aziende e pubblico ( greenLIFE è stato finanziato per circa la metà del suo costo attraverso il programma LIFE dell’Unione Europea), che ha portato tra l’altro alla identificazione di sistemi di depilazione che potranno consentire un risparmio di acqua e di prodotti chimici fino al 20% , ma anche la valorizzazione di sottoprodotti in agricoltura e una diminuzione consistente di rifiuto solido. Relatori saranno Guido Zilli di Conceria Dani, coordinatore del progetto, e Paolo Gurisatti, presidente della Stazione sperimentale per l’industria delle pelli. Nuovi concianti naturali, provenienti da polisaccaridi derivanti da risorse rinnovabili, il monitoraggio dell’impatto ambientale dei diversi sistemi di calcinaio e concia, uno studio LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) per valutare l'impatto sulla depurazione delle acque in una prospettiva di ciclo di vita, sono altri risultati che sono stati illustrati alle parti sociali presenti a Bruxelles lo scorso 23 novembre.

Building the circular economy: time to shift!Leonard
The construction sector - responsible for around a quarter of CO2 emissions and first waste producer in Europe - is called upon to accelerate its transition to an economy that is more sober in terms of natural resources and greenhouse gas emissions. This effort is all the more crucial at a time of new geopolitical instabilities and persistent tensions in the supply chain following the two-year pandemic, which make it more difficult to supply world markets. So how can we remove the obstacles to the development of the circular economy in construction and successfully transform the professions in cities and regions?

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

1) «Industrial metabolism» :
describes the flows of materials and energy
through the industrial system
2) Life Cycle Analysis (LCA):
quantifies the potential impacts of human activities
What is the aime of IS: reuse, reduce and avoid… With IS we are the top of the waste hierarchy. Which is even much more efficient than recycling or energy recovering. We change the way we treat the wastes.
PBP: payback period
5 industrial sectors: Textile, leather, metal plating, food, hotels
VOC: volatile organic compound
Coca-cola France
Conception d’une nouvelle boîte boisson (corps en aluminium ou en acier) munie du couvercle « 202 » en aluminium. Ce couvercle de diamètre 60 mm et réalise une économie de 1 g d’aluminium par boîte. La modification est rendue possible par l’amélioration des techniques de fabrication: capacité à restreindre le corps de boîte à un diamètre inférieur et à sertir le couvercle sur ce diamètre

Nestlé
La conception d’une nouvelle caisse de regroupement en substitution de la traditionnelle caisse américaine, a été menée en deux étapes: la caisse « à rabats courts » a permis une première réduction du carton utilisé. Puis la caisse dite « à trottoirs » a permis une nouvelle réduction. Au total l’économie atteint 57 % du carton ondulé utilisé pour la caisse américaine. Par ailleurs les plans de palettisation ont été améliorés.

Les modifications des techniques de remplissage permettent de réduire la hauteur de la boîte en PEHD de 225 mm à 205 mm, soit une économie de matière de 9 %. Cette modification autorise une réduction de la hauteur des caisses de regroupement en carton ondulé. Par ailleurs les boites sont regroupées par 12 au lieu de 6, ce qui entraîne des économies supplémentaires de carton.

IPSO has different types.
This figure is an example of well known explanation of a variety of IPSO.
The degree of value from services within the whole offering is different.
As you notice, this is also a difference of business models.
IPSO can adopt different types of business models.
A business model is represented by a contract between a provider and a customer.
La méthode consiste à considérer une industrie ou une branche X, et à déterminer combien de ressources elle utilise, quels produits et quels déchets sortent. Il peut se former des stocks si les entrants sont en plus grande quantité que les sortants.
Déterminer tous les flux du Canton de Genève dépasserait largement le budget en temps et en argent de cette étude, c‘est pour cela que le cahier des charges prévoit de se concentrer sur certaines ressources les plus importantes, qui sont nommées indicateurs-clé..
