Blue Circular Economy held a free online research seminar on 4 March 2021. The seminar featured presentations from researchers at Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), and Technical University of Denmark (DTU). Copies of the slides used as part of these presentations can be found by clicking the links below:
-
- Circular Business Model – An exploratory study of the logistics processes and sustainable supply chain management of SMEs and Micro- enterprises in Norway | Sardar Wasi Uddin Al Ahmed (Masters Student, NTNU)
-
- Possible applications for waste fishing nets in construction material | Ida Maria Gieysztor Bertelsen (Post-Doc, DTU)
-
- Earth-based adobe bricks from Greenlandic sediments reinforcement with discharged fishing nets | Kira Jensen (MSc, DTU)
In addition to their presentations, the speakers also took questions from attendees about various aspects of their research. This led to further discussion about the definition of open-loop supply chains, the challenges associated with correct documentation for companies attempting to use waste nets in their products, and the results of tests performed on adobe bricks reinforced with waste nets and the prospects for their future use in construction projects.
