Thailand, like many countries around the world, is in the midst of a significant plastic waste crisis. In 2019, the government of Thailand released the Roadmap for Plastic Waste Management 2018-2030 and is developing the National action plan on Marine plastic debris to alleviate the current...

Die derzeitige Nutzung natürlicher Ressourcen überschreitet die planetaren Grenzen und gefährdet so die Widerstandsfähigkeit des Ökosystems Erde. Der wachsende Rohstoffverbrauch und die daraus resultierenden ebenfalls wachsenden Abfallmengen und Emissionen bedrohen die Umwelt und somit die...

Steel is of extraordinary importance for the European economy as well as society, but is responsible for enormous energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, steel flows are an obvious subject for the European climate protection. The quantification of steel stocks and flows is...

The Nd doped LaB6 and La doped NdB6 was successfully synthesized from La2O3–B2O3–Mg blends by mechanochemical method. The Nd doped affects on crystal structure and electronic features were studied employing DFT. The high-energy ball milling carried out the synthesis reaction. The process...

A novel structure of Li/Na hybrid-ion batteries is proposed, using nonstoichiometric Li 2.7 V 2 .1 (PO 4 ) 3 /C nanocomposites as cathode and Na foil as anode with lithium-ion electrolyte (NSLVP-L). The discharge specific capacity of 132.99 mAh·g -1 is delivered at a current density of 100...

During the last decade, digitalization has borne tremendous changes on the way we live and do business. Industry 4.0, the new industrial revolution, is merging the physical, digital and virtual worlds through emerging technologies that collide with each other and create a distinctive paradigm...

El objetivo del estudio es analizar las tendencias entre 1970 y 2017 en la balanza comercial física, el uso y eficiencia de materiales de América Latina y el Caribe. La metodología es la contabilidad de los flujos de materiales que compila las entradas de materiales (biomasa, combustibles...

The construction industry contributes around 18% of greenhouse gas emissions, 40% of depletion of natural resources, and 25% of wastes globally. To reduce these impacts, construction industries can adopt low-carbon alternatives for construction materials and waste minimisation strategies,...

Remanufacturing is recognized as a major circular economy option to recover and upgrade functions from post-use products. However, the inefficiencies associated with operations, mainly due to the uncertainty and variability of material flows and product conditions, undermine the growth of...

This paper discusses the consequences of product return and circular material flow on a supply chain as well as on production planning and control. Furthermore, this paper presents an approach to incorporate the ideas of product return and circular material flow into the Hanoverian Supply Chain...

This paper sheds light on the increase in generation of non-metallic mineral wastes and the decrease in demand for construction by investigating the material flow resulting from and the economic influence of changes in the supply and demand for wastes, focusing on the period from the near future...

Lean Production als Weltstandard für Serienfertigung -- Lean Warehouse -- Integrierte Bewertung variantenreicher Einzel- und Kleinserienfertigung in den Bereichen Lean Management und Industrie 4.0 -- Konsequenzen von Industrie 4.0 für das Produktionsmanagement -- Quick Response Manufacturing...

After the Paris Climate Agreement, it is anticipated that carbon prices will differ across regions for some time. If countries use free allowance allocation as carbon leakage protection, only a fraction of carbon prices are passed through to consumers particularly by carbon intensive materials...

The aim of this study is to use material flow cost accounting (MFCA) to assess the level at which cleaner production (CP) can improve both environmental and economic performance of an organization. Higher energy and raw material prices are causing CP to grow in relevance and importance. The...

The relevance of the research problem is conditioned on the need to justify the use of the logistics methodologies in the quality parameters control process of material flows. The goal of the article is to develop theoretical principles and practical recommendations for logistical system control...
