Project description
Development of new indicators to measure the decrease of the use of natural resources and the increase of the efficiency of use of waste streams are envisioned. Databases will be a starting point to perform Material, Energy and Exergy Flow Analysis, which will be used to elaborate the indicators. They will be tested and validated in different case studies.
