Umsetzung von Ressourceneffizienz - Ressourceneffizienz auf betrieblicher Eben unter besonderer Betrachtung von kritischen Rohstoffen

On social and enterprise level resource efficiency gains higher perception. In this master thesis, the importance of resource efficiency and in particular of critical raw materials is shown. Thus the method of capturing criticality will be explained. From an operational perspective, critical raw materials are more capital intensive than non-critical raw materials. If they are lost in the production processes, there is the question, how these losses can be avoided. The material flow cost accounting enables the detection of resource efficiency potentials, the reduction of waste and the successful implementation of measures. The increase in efficiency leads to cost advantages over competitors. A categorization of case studies shows the weaknesses and measures of the processes based on a classification into the respective industry and company size. A final example summarizes the findings of the case studies and shows the value of the material flow cost accounting for a critical raw material.
