- Developing new products and/or processes for the use of waste in construction
- New scenarios of utilisation and new waste streams (e.g. sediments)
- Environmental and health impacts
- Avoided impacts (depletion of natural resources, GHG emissions, products with high energy consumption)
- Economy recycling
- Industrial Ecology-waste recycling and territorial metabolism
- Multicreteria analysis and decision support tools (of Life Cycle Analysis, Material Analysis, Cost-Benefit Analysis,...)
- Barriers and incentives to recycling (regulations, markets, eco-tax, conflict of interest between different industrial sectors, status and specifications of recycled materials (waste versus no-waste), social acceptance, producer liability)
