Description

This book explores sustainable manufacturing, from material extraction to processing and disposal, arguing that significant changes are needed for a more circular economy. It examines why certain materials have become prevalent in industry, such as plastics, and the unintended consequences of their use.

The book delves into specific materials, including plastics, metals, wood and paper products, glass, and novel materials, providing essential background on materials in the circular economy, chemicals, and waste. It also covers recycling and manufacturing processes, practical considerations, and how to translate knowledge into action.
