📖LAUDS quotes aims to inform about sustainable urban manufacturing thanks to the extensive literature retrieved from our team📖 “Although circular economy has no unique definition, it is most commonly describing a system where circular processes are used to close the loop and improve resources efficiency. With concepts such as urban mining, urban factories have the ability to close material flows” Ijassi, W., Evrard, D., & Zwolinski, P. (2023). Proposal of a circularity design approach for urban factories based on local stakeholders’ engagement. Procedia CIRP, 116, 13–18.
