Horizontal wastewater heat recovery heat exchanger, a model

open access: yes, 2019
The residential and service sector amounts to approximately 40 percent of Sweden’s entire energy demand. In which 90 percent of that is used by households and non-residential buildings. All in all about 80 TWh are used for heating and the provision of hot water in households and non-residential buildings. Since heating has always been such a large part

Circular Economy Pathways for Airport Climate Change Mitigation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Airport operators face growing climate‐change pressures; the circular economy offers pathways to reduce impacts and recover resources. We examine how airport operators apply the circular economy in practice. We use an exploratory qualitative multicase design based on practitioner‐generated documents (e.g., press releases and sustainability ...

Steam Saving by Waste-Heat Recovery from Pulping Wastewater

open access: yesJAPAN TAPPI JOURNAL, 2007
三菱製紙(株八戸工場では,当社のフェニックスプランに掲げるコストダウンテーマに則り省エネルギー推進を緊急課題として進めている。運用体制として,工場エネルギー活用委員会及びISO14001幹事会の会議委員を共通化して取組を連係させることにより,リアルタイムに省エネ効果を把握しながらエネルギー原単位の向上に取り組んでいる。今回は,平成18年11月に運転開始した排水廃熱回収設備の省エネ効果について紹介する。冬期の水温低下によって抄紙工程における蒸気使用量の増加を抑制することを目的として,従来パルプ系排水の冷却塔から大気放出していた廃熱を回収利用することによって,抄紙工程の清水温度をアップさせた。これにより,工程蒸気原単位が大幅に向上した。

Operational Performance Implications of Circular Economy Implementation: An Empirical Exploration in the Manufacturing Sector

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global manufacturing sector has increasingly adopted circular economy (CE) practices to address sustainability challenges and improve operational efficiency. This study explores the impact of five CE practices—reduce, reuse, remanufacture, recycle, and recover—on key operational performance dimensions: quality, speed, dependability ...

Measuring Corporate Alignment With the Circular Economy: a Text‐Based Circularity Index From Mandatory Non‐Financial Disclosures

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition to a circular economy (CE) has become a strategic priority for firms, yet empirical assessments of corporate circularity remain fragmented and heavily dependent on structured indicators or self‐reported metrics. This paper proposes a novel, text‐based circularity index derived from mandatory non‐financial statements of large ...

An Indicator‐Based Decision Framework for Circular Bioeconomy Transition in the Steel Industry: Integrating Multiphase Learning and Cooperative Game Modelling

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing attention to the circular bioeconomy (CBE), the steel industry currently lacks a standardised, sectoral measurement framework to facilitate a low‐carbon transition. In this study, a decision‐support framework for evaluating CBE performance in the steel industry is proposed.

Integrating Products, Processes, and Sourcing for Eco‐Innovation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐innovation research has often examined regulatory or technological drivers but has paid limited attention to how long‐term organizational change shapes eco‐innovation in mature, resource‐intensive industries. This study addresses that gap by investigating how two leading Finnish pulp and paper firms integrated product, process, and ...
