Collaborative, Digitized and Integral Processes to Achieve Circular and Emission-Free Renovation

Researcher: Li Jiang
Project Duration:  01 June 2023 – 31 May 2027
Project Partner: TU Eindhoven, Utrecht University, Zuyd University of Applied Sciences, Eigen Haard, Madaster, Dusseldorp, Lagemaat BV

Project Description:

Renovation projects are complex and multi-objective design challenges characterised by intensive decision-making and organisational activities concerning a building’s future. Such projects uniquely connect a variety of otherwise fragmented disciplines. Crucial for fostering more circular renovation practices with lower emissions is the availability of accurate, timely and concise information on supply chains and material flows and optimal design strategies, considering multiple value-creation perspectives from different stakeholders. PACER will provide collaborative, digitised, integral processes, tools, and legal and economic frameworks to achieve circular and emission-free renovation practices. As partner in this project, we will work on the development of a new integrated data-driven process for identifying, inventorying, harvesting, and distributing recovered materials in renovation projects via reverse logistics.
