Context Method Results Conclusions

Research scale

  • at city/region level
  • economy/system-wide
  • → political decision-making

Application fields

  • Waste management/CE
  • Transport, energy system
  • Household consumption

Data framework/method

  • Input-output (IO)data
  • (EE)- IOA

Data requirement

  • Physical waste flows

Material flows & environmental impacts?

Access to

  • Regional IO data
  • National physical IO data
  • Waste statistical data
  • Waste composition data
  • Waste treatment

statistics

Conclusions

  • Development of WIO model feasible at

city/regional level

  • → High data requirements
  • →Integration into MRIO model
  • Environmental impacts & waste performance
  • f Brussels deviate from other regions
  • →city/region scale is needed
  • Powerful, because flexible tool (MFA &

impacts)
