  1. Material Cycle Science Concept Nik Meriam Nik Sulaiman Sustainability Science Research Cluster Universiti Malaya 30 April 2014, Intercontinental Hotel, KL

  2. Is waste a “dirty” word? 1 Start – Waste End – Waste Can we go beyond zero waste? 3 Material Cycle Science Concept Is this new? 2 Circular Economy Linear vs circular ?

  3. Linear vs Circular Economy From linear to circular economy? • Restorative or regenerative by intention and design • Elimination of waste through the superior design of materials, products, systems, and business models Limits of linear consumption DISPOSE TAKE MAKE • In 2010, 65 billion tonnes raw materials enter the system • 82 billion tonnes in 2020 • Global trends driving transition to the circular economy: • Resource constraints • Increasing demand • Employment • A new type of consumer • Shift in socio-demographics • Enabling technology • Legislation Ref: World Economic Forum Report :Towards the Circular Economy: Jan 2014

  4. Flagship projects for material sector well-established high volume recycled waste purity (PET, glass, and steel) high volume but lack systemic reuse (polymer) large volume by-products (CO₂ and food waste) innovative materials with breakthrough potential (bio-based materials) • ‘Golden oldies’: • ‘High potentials’: • ‘Rough diamonds’: • ‘Future blockbusters’:
