20.500.12556/DiRROS-22203 The carbon footprint of different construction and demolition waste management methods End-of-life management with three CDW fractions are considered in this study: wood, steel, and broken concrete. The goal of the study is to evaluate the Global Warming Potential (GWP) of different end-of-life management approaches and to benchmark the circular approaches versus the linear approaches. In the case of waste wood, the circular scenario refers to wood recycling and the production of recycled particle board or glue-laminated timber. Waste wood landfilling and the production of particle board/glue-laminated timber from primary wood are considered in the linear scenario. Considering the production of particle board, the circular scenario shows 4 times lower GWP than the linear scenario. Considering the production of glue-laminated timber, the circular scenario shows comparable GWP as the linear scenario. In the case of waste steel, the GWP of two circular scenarios were compared; recycling versus reuse. The reuse scenario shows around 8 times lower GWP than the recycling. In the case of waste concrete, the circular scenario refers to the recycling of broken concrete into recycled aggregate. The linear scenario includes the landfilling of waste concrete and the production of natural aggregate. LCA results show around 2 times lower impact on GWP in the case of the circular scenario. construction gradbeništvo true false true University of Maribor, University Press Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik © 2025 Univerza v Mariboru, Univerzitetna založba Neznano 2025-05-09 08:51:04 2025-05-09 08:56:28 2025-10-24 03:50:48 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2025 0 0 Str. 161-168 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2025-03-03 620.1/.2 230991619 227616771 https://doi.org/10.18690/um.fkkt.1.2025.14 0 fbd75453-2ca1-11f0-963a-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=32137 RAZ_Turk_Janez_2025.pdf RAZ_Turk_Janez_2025.pdf 1 5BFCF49D6B9F76FE7129CB67FDB4CEBF 12f52f6a8440ef72e7ab045ecb92780932a197bbdef437164ba7ad1767357077 b725dee5-2ca2-11f0-963a-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=32138 Zavod za gradbeništvo Slovenije 0 0 0
