Featured image

Researchers Sultan Cetin (TU Delft), Catherine De Wolf (ETH Zurich) and Nancy Bocken (Maastricht University), have developed a novel framework combining Circular Economy principles and life cycle stages of buildings, and mapped ten potentially enabling digital technologies.

These include:

  1. Additive/robotic manufacturing;
  2. Artificial intelligence;
  3. Big data and analytics;
  4. Blockchain technology;
  5. Building information modelling;
  6. Digital platforms/marketplaces;
  7. Digital twins;
  8. The geographical information system;
  9. Material passports/databanks;
  10. The internet of things.

Their framework can be used to create roadmaps or map your value network in your circular operations.
