Thesis - Smart Quality (m / f / d)

Thesis / final thesis : Conception and creation of a key performance indicator system for evaluating the recyclability of materials

Your options in the Smart Quality Lab

The aim of this thesis is to a) design and b) develop a material evaluation system in terms of recyclability. Thematically, this thesis is in the area of ​​the digital product passport, which will be mandatory for all products across the EU in the future and is considered a core element of the circular economy. As part of a research project, we analyze and optimize the material composition of a product with regard to its recyclability and, on this basis, create a digital sustainability passport as transparent proof of the product's recyclability. Against this background, this thesis first identifies the parameters relevant to the recyclability of a material (. theoretical chemical suitability for recycling, contaminating additives, sortability, reusability, and then develops an evaluation scheme (quantitative key figure system). For this purpose, the scientific state of the art in the area of ​​material recycling must be viewed and taken into account. Building on this, the relevant parameters must finally be developed for the materials used in the product (research & interviews with recycling companies) in order to validate and fill the evaluation system developed.
