Resolving complexity: Material flow analysis of a national wood flow system integrating the versatility of wood

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 28, Issue 6, Page 1716-1729, December 2024.
Abstract A systemic understanding of the use of wood resources is required to defossilize society and promote bio‐based developments. This study provides a novel approach to represent a comprehensive material flow analysis (MFA) spanning the entire wood value chain; encompassing wood harvest to products, use in society, collection, reuse, recycle ...

Tracking Construction Material over Space and Time: Prospective and Geo‐referenced Modeling of Building Stocks and Construction Material Flows

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 23, Issue 1, Page 253-267, February 2019., 2019
Summary Construction material plays an increasingly important role in the environmental impacts of buildings. In order to investigate impacts of materials on a building level, we present a bottom‐up building stock model that uses three‐dimensional and geo‐referenced building data to determine volumetric information of material stocks in Swiss ...

Shifting wood between material and energy use: Modeling the effects of substitution

Journal of Industrial Ecology, Volume 28, Issue 5, Page 1198-1211, October 2024.
Abstract Wood as a renewable material is relevant for climate change mitigation: Carbon sequestration in forests and carbon storage in harvested wood products (HWPs) contribute to carbon reduction in the atmosphere, and the substitution of carbon‐intensive products with wood products can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.
