International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI)
This document discusses the circular economy in cities and regions. It notes that a circular economy can benefit society through better resource use, businesses through new markets and cost savings, and the public sector through meeting policy goals and cost efficiency. A circular economy involves activities across the whole value chain from collection and separation to reuse, repair, reprocessing, extraction, and disposal. It notes that national approaches often lack pilots and specific initiatives. Barriers include awareness, resources, and competing demands on cities. The document recommends starting small, finding champions, piloting projects, working with the private sector, and monitoring progress to embed circular approaches over the long term.
European Investment Bank
The EIB supports circular economy projects in cities through various financing and advisory programs. From 2013-2017, the largest shares of EIB circular economy lending went to industry/services (33%), water management (26%), and agriculture/bioeconomy (17%). Examples of EIB circular city initiatives include the Green Metropole Fund in Amsterdam and advisory support for Kolding Municipality in Denmark to develop circular economy strategies and projects. The EIB categorizes circular economy projects as circular design/production, circular use/life extension, circular value recovery, and circular support.
City of Valladolid
Valladolid is transitioning towards a circular economy with 3000 employees committed. The city signed the Seville Declaration in 2017 to promote circular economy among cities. Valladolid created a roadmap with 5 steps - define approach, make a diagnosis, raise awareness, promote circular businesses, and position the city as circular. It offers subsidies up to 25,000 euros for circular economy projects in areas like training, awareness, research, and new products. Over 50 projects have received funding. Valladolid also hosts a Circular Weekend event and will have a Circular Lab entrepreneurship hub. The city is a case study for the OECD programme on circular economies in cities.
Climate-KIC
The document discusses the social benefits of moving towards a circular economy. It notes that a circular economy could address social challenges like jobs, poverty, and inequality by creating new employment opportunities through labor-intensive reuse, repair, recycling, and services. Studies show a circular economy could reduce carbon emissions by 2/3 and create many local, decentralized jobs while boosting local economies and improving standards of living through increased disposable income and wealth creation. A circular economy also promotes social cohesion through sharing economies and improved environmental quality. While some new jobs may be in waste management, a focus on both human and artificial intelligence could help ensure high quality employment.
City of Paris
The document outlines Paris' circular economy strategy from 2014-2020. It began with developing the first roadmap in 2017 which identified 5 priority themes and 15 actions to improve the urban metabolism. In 2018, a second roadmap expanded on these themes and identified new areas like exemplary administration, culture, and education. Key results included Les Canaux, a support center for circular economy actors, and an analysis estimating jobs created in Paris by the circular economy.
European Commission
Circular economy initiatives are well-suited for implementation at the regional and urban levels for several reasons:
1) Regional value chains often involve heavy/bulky or low-value materials and products, and make use of region-specific resources.
2) There is a high density of economic actors within regions that can more easily collaborate in circular systems.
3) Regional authorities can help de-risk circular economy projects by providing local financial incentives, creating markets through public procurement, facilitating collaboration between actors, and establishing a public operator to connect different parts of the value chain.
OECD
The document summarizes key points from an OECD survey on circular economies in cities and regions. It finds that while most cities and regions have emerging or in-progress circular economy initiatives, fully adopting circular economies requires a holistic and systemic approach across all sectors of cities. Common tools used by cities include pilots and experimentations, capacity building, sustainable public procurement, and dedicated budgets. Top priorities for cities include overcoming obstacles to transitioning and further developing circular economy plans and policies over the long term through the OECD's circular economy program.
Agustín Castillo Martínez (City of Granada, Spain)
Granada is a city of 232,000 people located in southern Spain with a metropolitan area of 530,000. It has an aged population and high unemployment of 23.9%, with its economy based on tourism and services. Granada contains many UNESCO World Heritage sites and has a large student population from its University. To advance its circular economy, Granada is converting its main wastewater plant into a biofactory, promoting digital technologies, and collaborating with the OECD and other municipalities. It also aims to encourage cooperation between economic actors, involve academia, coordinate circular actions, and publicize results of projects to transition to a more circular model.

LWARB's vision is for London to become a circular city that capitalizes on opportunities to be more resilient, efficient, and competitive for the future. They work to reinvigorate recycling through behavior change campaigns, improving food waste capture, and restricting non-recyclable waste. LWARB also accelerates the transition to a circular economy by investing in and supporting businesses, building partnerships, and raising awareness. Their circular business support program helps small circular businesses grow and linear businesses transition through their portfolio of over 150 businesses that have created 30 jobs and launched 20 new products.
Anne Helbig (City of Groningen, Netherlands)
The city of Groningen in the Netherlands developed a roadmap for a circular economy from 2018-2020 following its participation in the OECD Circular Economy in Cities and Regions initiative. The roadmap focuses on five focal areas - energy, water, biomass/food, waste, and construction/demolition - and is guided by six principles including enabling residents and businesses to develop circular solutions, acting as a role model, and closing material cycles. An action plan was also created based on OECD recommendations to implement strategies, engage stakeholders, promote training and competition, and facilitate coordination across sectors to transition Groningen to a circular economy.
Oriana Romano (OECD)
This document discusses the circular economy in cities and regions. It provides an overview of a survey of 43 cities and 3 regions on their circular economy initiatives. The top drivers for cities transitioning to a circular economy are climate change and creating new business models. Cities' initiatives mainly focus on waste management and pilot projects. The main obstacles are lack of coordination across levels of government and private sector engagement. A checklist is proposed to help cities develop circular economy visions and transition strategies.
Håkon Jenthoft (City of Oslo, Norway)
The document discusses strategies for transitioning Oslo, Norway to a circular economy by 2030. It outlines goals such as reduced material consumption, green public procurement, and resource management. The city aims to develop a circular economy strategy that supports existing zero-emission targets and involves suppliers, citizens, industry, and other stakeholders. The strategy would also position the greater Oslo region as a metropolitan area committed to sustainability.
Eveline Jonkhoff (City of Amsterdam)
The City of Amsterdam has ambitious goals to become more circular and sustainable, aiming for a 50% reduction in primary resource use by 2030 and to be fully circular and climate neutral by 2050. To achieve these goals, Amsterdam has been implementing circular economy programs since 2015, conducting research on value chains and funding over 70 projects in 2016 and over 116 projects in 2019. On April 8th, Amsterdam will publish updated plans that translate value chains into specific ambitions and actions, drawing from lessons learned through over 200 related circular economy projects within the city. The city is also developing a "City Doughnut" framework to assess progress from multiple perspectives.
Janet Ågren (City of Umeå, Sweden)
Umeå, Sweden has a vision of growing to 200,000 inhabitants by 2050 in a sustainable way that considers social, ecological, economic and cultural factors. Over 120 stakeholders participated in an OECD study on how Umeå can transition to a circular economy. Umeå aims to become a logistic hub in the region and develop a circular and sustainable food system, while integrating social sustainability into its climate action and circular economy plans. The OECD recommends Umeå facilitate coordination among initiatives, promote circular practices to businesses and organizations, and enable circular procurement and policies to transition the city.
Rosa Huertas Gonzalez (City of Valladolid, Spain)
Valladolid, Spain has been working to transition to a circular economy through various policies and initiatives since 2015. Key drivers included the EU Circular Economy Action Plan, declarations of commitment from Spanish cities, and reports on the circular economy in Spain. Valladolid developed a roadmap in 2017 and provided subsidies to support the circular economy. An OECD review mission in 2019 provided recommendations to further Valladolid's circular transition by engaging stakeholders, aligning policies to provide regulatory support for innovation, and strengthening governance through actions like developing a monitoring framework.
Bernie Kiely (Ireland)
Ireland is participating in an OECD project on circular economies in cities and regions. The circular economy is not widely recognized in mainstream Irish policy and sectors currently. Some initiatives exist like the Rediscovery Centre, a reuse social enterprise, and Circuléire, a public-private partnership developing circular economy projects. Ireland's participation in 2020 coincides with a review of national waste policy and development of a circular economy strategy. The OECD project will provide insight and recommendations to Ireland through interviews in March 2020.
Elís Benediktsson (Nordic innovation)
The Nordic countries are global leaders in climate change initiatives and circular economy efforts. They have historically focused on reducing energy emissions but are now also targeting material production emissions. Key initiatives include industrial symbiosis, green construction, and public procurement programs. Most have set carbon neutrality goals for 2040-2050. Finland was the first country to release a circular economy roadmap in 2016. Denmark, Sweden, and Norway have also released national circular economy strategies or roadmaps. Iceland focuses on renewable energy and carbon capture. The Nordic Council of Ministers promotes circular economy collaboration and projects across sectors through the Nordic Cooperation program.
The OECD Blue Cities Project
The OECD Blue Cities Project aims to build a sustainable blue economy in cities through an integrated risk-informed and climate-smart (RISC-proof) approach. Coastal cities face risks from sea level rise and water pollution that threaten jobs and economic growth reliant on ocean resources. The traditional approach to the blue economy lacks a local perspective. The project will take a systemic, territorial approach linking water management to local economic development and climate change adaptation through good water governance, sharing knowledge between cities, and measuring project outcomes over multiple phases of research, implementation and result sharing by 2023.
City of Oslo
The document outlines an EU monitoring framework for the Circular Economy. It describes several indicators organized by thematic area and category to measure progress. The indicators include the share of major public procurement that includes environmental requirements, annual solid waste generation, waste electrical and electronic equipment generation, and food waste generation. The framework is intended to track self-sufficiency of raw materials, input of virgin materials, water usage, environmental management systems, and public awareness of circular economy issues. Next steps include testing the indicators in cities, identifying related projects, and holding a workshop to further develop the framework.
Ashima Sukhdev (Ellen MacArthur Foundation)
Circulytics is a free online tool developed by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation that provides businesses with a comprehensive way to measure their performance and progress towards a circular economy. It assesses a company's adoption of circularity across its operations through indicators related to enablers of the circular transition, outcomes like material flows, and an overall score. Nearly 500 companies have already used Circulytics to help develop circular economy strategies and track their performance over time.

Prezentare Hidro Tarnita - Energy Forum 2015
BusinessMark a organizat Energy Forum 2015, eveniment dedicat sectorului energetic, pe 28 mai, la Bucuresti, Hotel Radisson Blu. Ovidiu Demetrescu - Energy Forum 2015Conferinta a fost un prilej de analiza si dezbatere a sectorului energetic, si a reunit reprezentanti ai managementului celor mai importante companii energetice prezente pe piata romaneasca, ai autoritatilor si ai asociatiilor din energie.
Dl. Ovidiu Demetrescu a participat in calitate de speaker- prezentand o vedere de ansamblu asupra sectorului energetic si al investitiilor in energie, accentuand importanta investitiei pentru proiectul hidrocentralei Tarnita.
Ovidiu Demetrescu, Director General, Hidro Tarnița, a subliniat ca in Romania, avem forta de munca foarte buna.
”Incercam sa retinem aici oamenii valorosi, dar aceasta forta de munca nu trebuie sa fie ieftina ci platita corect. Pana la urma, banii cu care ii platim se intorc in economie pentru ca sunt cheltuiti tot aici. De asemenea, trebuie sa le oferim investitorilor un mediu in care sa poata sa isi planfice business-ul. Este adevarat ca in Romania s-au modificat regulile in timpul jocului, dar era de asteptat sa se schimbe, avand in vedere schemele respective. De altfel, astfel de schimbari s-au intamplat in multe alte tari”, a afirmat Ovidiu Demetrescu.

FDI and Superstar Spillovers: Evidence from Firm-to-Firm Transactions
Mary AMITI (FED New York, United States)
Despite competition concerns over the increasing dominance of global corporations, many argue that productivity spillovers from multinationals to domestic firms justify pro-FDI policies. For the first time, we use firm-to-firm transaction data in a developed country to examine the impact of forming a new relationship with a multinational, and find a TFP increase of about 8% three or more years after the event. Sales to other buyers, trade and customer quality also increase. However, we also document that starting to supply other “superstar firms” such as those who heavily export or are very large also increases performance by similar amounts, even if the superstar is a non-multinational. Placebos on starting relationships with smaller firms and novel identification strategies relying solely on demand shocks to superstar firms support a causal interpretation. In addition to productivity spillovers, we document the transmission of “relationship capabilities” and “dating agency” effects as the increase in new buyers is particularly strong within the superstar firm’s existing network. These results suggest an important role for raising productivity through the supply chains of superstar firms regardless of their multinational status.

Mapping location and co-location of industries at the neighborhood level
Alessandro ALASIA, Dennis HUYNH (Statistics Canada)
In Canada, there is limited analysis on industry locations at the neighbourhood level; location and co-location of industries have been assessed primarily at the regional scale which results in an information gap for businesses. Recent evidence suggests that businesses do not just choose a city for their location, they choose specific business districts within a metropolitan area. Recent improvements in the geolocation of business microdata allow to address the information gap. This work, undertaken as part of the Business Data Lab and in collaboration with the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, is a first attempt to map industry locations at the neighbourhood level in major metropolitan areas of Canada. Using establishment-level microdata from the Business Register, we apply spatial kernel density estimations to identify neighbourhoods with high employment/revenue density for selected industries (2-digit NAICS) and industry clusters (grouping of 6-digits NAICS). The geographic delineation of business districts within metropolitan areas is the first step in understanding the evolution of industry location and co-location over time, and assessing local business dynamics at the neighbourhood level. Ultimately, these business districts can be analyzed in combination with additional data sources (e.g., mobility and road traffic) to derive further economic insights.

Advancing and democratizing business data in Canada- Patrick Gill & Stephen Tapp
Democratizing data through innovative data governance and visualizations
Patrick GILL, Stephen TAPP (Chambers of Commerce, Canada)
Small organizations in Canada struggle with accessing and leveraging data on business conditions and trends. These organizations have expressed difficulty in knowing what is available, accessing it and converting this information into actionable insights. To empower small organizations with more business-related information and insights, the Canadian Chamber of Commerce has built a suite of free tools that merge and visualize traditional statistics with powerful high-frequency data sets (e.g. payments and mobility). This work is enabled by innovate data governance (e.g. a data trust) and a collaborative partnership with Statistics Canada. The Canadian Chamber of Commerce is continuing work with Statistics Canada to release more local business information available through the agency’s Business Register (e.g. the mapping of local business districts), and is exploring how Generative AI can support small organizations’ navigation and understanding of the business information it has curated.

Horizon 2020 - research networks across borders - Rupert Kawka
Involvement of rural regions in European research networks
Rupert KAWKA, Torsten SCHUNDER (Federal Office for Building and regional Planning, Germany)
This study investigates the distribution of the European Union's Horizon 2020 funding programme on rural and urban regions between 2014 and 2020 and the resulting urban-rural links. Leveraging the Horizon 2020-database covering the 2014-20 programming period, which encompasses data on approximately 35,000 funded projects involving nearly 180,000 partners, the paper explores the participation of rural firms and organisations in the broader European research framework. By integrating the urban-rural classification of NUTS 3 regions, the research addresses key questions concerning the involvement of rural regions in Horizon 2020 projects, the structural differences in projects with and without rural participation, and the dynamics of urban-rural collaboration in research. The study further aims to identify potential clusters of rural innovation hubs across Europe and assess spatial disparities.

Improving the viability of probiotics by encapsulation methods for developmen...Open Access Research Paper
The popularity of functional foods among scientists and common people has been increasing day by day. Awareness and modernization make the consumer think better regarding food and nutrition. Now a day’s individual knows very well about the relation between food consumption and disease prevalence. Humans have a diversity of microbes in the gut that together form the gut microflora. Probiotics are the health-promoting live microbial cells improve host health through gut and brain connection and fighting against harmful bacteria. Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus are the two bacterial genera which are considered to be probiotic. These good bacteria are facing challenges of viability. There are so many factors such as sensitivity to heat, pH, acidity, osmotic effect, mechanical shear, chemical components, freezing and storage time as well which affects the viability of probiotics in the dairy food matrix as well as in the gut. Multiple efforts have been done in the past and ongoing in present for these beneficial microbial population stability until their destination in the gut. One of a useful technique known as microencapsulation makes the probiotic effective in the diversified conditions and maintain these microbe’s community to the optimum level for achieving targeted benefits. Dairy products are found to be an ideal vehicle for probiotic incorporation. It has been seen that the encapsulated microbial cells show higher viability than the free cells in different processing and storage conditions as well as against bile salts in the gut. They make the food functional when incorporated, without affecting the product sensory characteristics.
Optimizing Post Remediation Groundwater Performance with Enhanced Microbiolog...
Results of geophysics and pneumatic injection pilot tests during 2003 – 2007 yielded significant positive results for injection delivery design and contaminant mass treatment, resulting in permanent shut-down of an existing groundwater Pump & Treat system.
Accessible source areas were subsequently removed (2011) by soil excavation and treated with the placement of Emulsified Vegetable Oil EVO and zero-valent iron ZVI to accelerate treatment of impacted groundwater in overburden and weathered fractured bedrock. Post pilot test and post remediation groundwater monitoring has included analyses of CVOCs, organic fatty acids, dissolved gases and QuantArray® -Chlor to quantify key microorganisms (e.g., Dehalococcoides, Dehalobacter, etc.) and functional genes (e.g., vinyl chloride reductase, methane monooxygenase, etc.) to assess potential for reductive dechlorination and aerobic cometabolism of CVOCs.
In 2022, the first commercial application of MetaArray™ was performed at the site. MetaArray™ utilizes statistical analysis, such as principal component analysis and multivariate analysis to provide evidence that reductive dechlorination is active or even that it is slowing. This creates actionable data allowing users to save money by making important site management decisions earlier.
The results of the MetaArray™ analysis’ support vector machine (SVM) identified groundwater monitoring wells with a 80% confidence that were characterized as either Limited for Reductive Decholorination or had a High Reductive Reduction Dechlorination potential. The results of MetaArray™ will be used to further optimize the site’s post remediation monitoring program for monitored natural attenuation.

Microbial characterisation and identification, and potability of River Kuywa ...Open Access Research Paper
Water contamination is one of the major causes of water borne diseases worldwide. In Kenya, approximately 43% of people lack access to potable water due to human contamination. River Kuywa water is currently experiencing contamination due to human activities. Its water is widely used for domestic, agricultural, industrial and recreational purposes. This study aimed at characterizing bacteria and fungi in river Kuywa water. Water samples were randomly collected from four sites of the river: site A (Matisi), site B (Ngwelo), site C (Nzoia water pump) and site D (Chalicha), during the dry season (January-March 2018) and wet season (April-July 2018) and were transported to Maseno University Microbiology and plant pathology laboratory for analysis. The characterization and identification of bacteria and fungi were carried out using standard microbiological techniques. Nine bacterial genera and three fungi were identified from Kuywa river water. Clostridium spp., Staphylococcus spp., Enterobacter spp., Streptococcus spp., E. coli, Klebsiella spp., Shigella spp., Proteus spp. and Salmonella spp. Fungi were Fusarium oxysporum, Aspergillus flavus complex and Penicillium species. Wet season recorded highest bacterial and fungal counts (6.61-7.66 and 3.83-6.75cfu/ml) respectively. The results indicated that the river Kuywa water is polluted and therefore unsafe for human consumption before treatment. It is therefore recommended that the communities to ensure that they boil water especially for drinking.

Evolving Lifecycles with High Resolution Site Characterization (HRSC) and 3-D...
The incorporation of a 3DCSM and completion of HRSC provided a tool for enhanced, data-driven, decisions to support a change in remediation closure strategies. Currently, an approved pilot study has been obtained to shut-down the remediation systems (ISCO, P&T) and conduct a hydraulic study under non-pumping conditions. A separate micro-biological bench scale treatability study was competed that yielded positive results for an emerging innovative technology.

Kinetic studies on malachite green dye adsorption from aqueous solutions by A...Open Access Research Paper
Water polluted by dyestuffs compounds is a global threat to health and the environment; accordingly, we prepared a green novel sorbent chemical and Physical system from an algae, chitosan and chitosan nanoparticle and impregnated with algae with chitosan nanocomposite for the sorption of Malachite green dye from water. The algae with chitosan nanocomposite by a simple method and used as a recyclable and effective adsorbent for the removal of malachite green dye from aqueous solutions. Algae, chitosan, chitosan nanoparticle and algae with chitosan nanocomposite were characterized using different physicochemical methods. The functional groups and chemical compounds found in algae, chitosan, chitosan algae, chitosan nanoparticle, and chitosan nanoparticle with algae were identified using FTIR, SEM, and TGADTA/DTG techniques. The optimal adsorption conditions, different dosages, pH and Temperature the amount of algae with chitosan nanocomposite were determined. At optimized conditions and the batch equilibrium studies more than 99% of the dye was removed. The adsorption process data matched well kinetics showed that the reaction order for dye varied with pseudo-first order and pseudo-second order. Furthermore, the maximum adsorption capacity of the algae with chitosan nanocomposite toward malachite green dye reached as high as 15.5mg/g, respectively. Finally, multiple times reusing of algae with chitosan nanocomposite and removing dye from a real wastewater has made it a promising and attractive option for further practical applications.
