Resource efficiency for closed-loop circularity of building insulation materials in Europe
Insulation materials play a central role in improving the energy performance of Europe's largely inefficient building stock, of which about 75% still requires renovation. As demand for insulation increases, the sector faces growing pressure to reduce dependence on primary raw materials. In this study, we develop the first comprehensive sector-wide static Material Flow Analysis (MFA) for the year 2016 covering the five major insulation materials u…
Bud-Mi
Mapping construction material stocks is essential for understanding socioeconomic metabolism and informing the circular economy. However, spatial material stock studies often produce coarse results owing to challenges in material intensity development. This paper introduces BUD-MI (Bottom-Up Data: Material Intensity), a material intensity data collection template designed with three core objectives: streamlining the data collection process during…
Environmental benefits of using hempcrete walls in residential construction
Uncovering the Carbon Emission Intensity and Reduction Potentials of the Metro Operation Phase
The huge energy consumption of metro operations has become a significant challenge faced by the urban public transportation sector to achieve low-carbon development. Using Shenzhen as an example, this study has made efforts to quantify the metro's energy consumption and carbon emission intensity during the operation phase by using the Life Cycle Assessment approach. Furthermore, this study evaluates the actions that can be taken to reduce energy …
Global urban subway development, construction material stocks, and embodied carbon emissions
Urban subway system, as an important type of urban transportation infrastructure, can provide mass mobility service and help address urban sustainability challenges such as traffic congestion and air pollution. The continuous construction of subways, however, causes large amounts of construction materials and embodied greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. In this study, we characterized the patterns of subway development, construction material stocks, …
