As part of our ongoing commitment to advancing sustainability in industrial processes, ISQ had the opportunity to participate in the 12th International Conference on Sustainable Solid Waste Management – Cyprus ’25, held in June 2025. In collaboration with LIST, we presented a poster outlining a key deliverable of the TransZeroWaste project: the circularity indicators framework developed within Task 5.1 of WP5.
This framework is designed to assess how efficiently steel-producing partners manage their material flows, both under current operating conditions and in future scenarios involving new recycling pathways under development by the project. By quantifying circularity performance, the framework aims to highlight strengths, identify bottlenecks, and uncover synergies that could drive more effective waste valorisation strategies within the steel industry.
Beyond its immediate application in TransZeroWaste, the framework offers a replicable model for researchers and professionals working across industrial sectors. As the EU and global community continue to raise the bar on environmental targets, such tools will be essential to ensure that technological innovation translates into real, measurable sustainability gains.
The poster (no. 127), along with a short oral presentation, is available through the official conference website: https://cyprus2025.uest.gr/poster.html
