1. 26. Upcycle and Repurpose Driven Design : A case study at ReTuna Återbruksgalleria

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Produktrealisering

   Author : Moa Berglund; [2022]
   Keywords : Climate change; transition; transformation; circular economy; upcycle; furniture design; recycling; repurpose driven design; second hand; mall; circular design; consumption;

   Abstract : How can we use more of the materials and products that have already been produced? At the second hand shopping mall ReTuna in Eskilstuna, where circular flows are a reality, there are still many products going to waste. This master thesis project explores the possibilities of upcycle and repurpose driven design, and by that adding new value to existing products. READ MORE

3. 27. Evaluation of pollutant removal performance of stormwater biofilters in a Swedish climate : Comparison of three different filter media designs

   Abstract : Global consumption levels currently extend far beyond what planet Earth in terms of natural resources can regenerate in a sustainable manor and will by 2050 reach levels corresponding to what it would require three Earths to sustain. This overexploitation and unsustainable management of the Earth’s resources in combination with the necessity of mitigating climate change and reaching net zero CO2 emissions by 2050 require action across all sectors, not least the manufacturing industry.
