Exploring the feasibility of construction and demolition waste recycling in an emerging Indian city using a dynamic modeling approach
In emerging economies like India, infrastructure development is expected to grow in the coming decades. Buildings, an important infrastructural asset and anthropogenic material source, need adequate exploration as potential raw material repositories. This study introduces a novel “ Ma terial F L ow and market B ehavior A ssessment (MaLBA)” model to evaluate building material circularity prospects while integrating dynamic stock modeling for mater…
Localising vulnerability assessment to urban floods
Prioritization of strategies for urban water circular economy using water circularity indicator
Global water scarcity is aggravating with increasing urbanization and inappropriate urban water management. Implementing Circular Economy (CE) strategies in the water sector followed by their assessment can prove to be beneficial. Recently, the Water Circularity Indicator (WCI) has been developed to measure, monitor, improve and promote urban water circularity using the 5Rs (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Reclaim, Restore). Apprehending the role and sco…
Development of building stock model for an emerging city in India
This study explores the prospects of urban mining for a steadily developing city “Thane,” located in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region of India, through building material stock accounting (BMSA). A novel bottom‐up approach for stock accounting was developed for the cities with limited data availability, through the integration of geodata spatial analysis, archetype identification through statistical modeling, and regional building design assessment …
Need to adopt scaled decentralized systems in the water infrastructure to achieve sustainability and build resilience
Urban water infrastructure (UWI) in cities faces enormous pressure to cope with increased water demands, handle extreme events and improve the service with minimum resource consumption and environmental impacts. The current study presents an approach for addressing the challenges in UWI, specifically in water supply and sewerage. The article argues a need for a paradigm shift that simultaneously includes the sustainability and resilience aspects …
Role of non-motorized transportation and buses in meeting climate targets of urban regions
Pursuing necessary reductions in embedded GHG emissions of developed nations
GIS coupled multiple criteria decision making approach for classifying urban coastal areas in India
Response to Comment on “Weighting and Aggregation in Life Cycle Assessment
We are pleased to take this opportunity to respond to Mr. Seager's and Ms. Prado's comment on our article “Weighting and Aggregation in Life Cycle Assessment: Do Present Aggregated Single Scores Provide Correct Decision Support?” (Kalbar et al. 2016). This will provide us an obviously needed opportunity to further clarify our thoughts and points of view on the issue of weighting and aggregation in life cycle assessment (LCA) and some of the conce…
Weighting and Aggregation in Life Cycle Assessment
This study investigates the prevailing practice of obtaining single scores in life cycle assessment (LCA) and identifies potential lacunas in impact assessment methodology related to the results of aggregation into endpoints and single scores. In order to conduct this investigation, a detailed approach was adopted to facilitate identification of three main problems related to the single‐score calculation approach. The prevailing ReCiPe single‐sco…
