Title Social Attitudes Towards Electronic Waste And The Implementation Of Circular Economy Principles
Year 2022
Published Ekonomia I Srodowisko-Economics And Environment, 83.0, 4
Abstract The article aims to evaluate criteria that should be considered when deciding on the adaptive reuse of existing buildings. Reusing a building by means of renovation is in line with the concept of sus-tainability, as it makes it possible to extend the useful life of a building without incurring significant finan- cial expenses. The concept is related to the theory of the circular economy, which maintains that by designing a system of closed-loop processes - in which waste from one process is used as raw ma-terial for another - the consumption of raw materials, the amount of waste and energy losses can be mini-mised. The article discusses criteria that local governments, municipalities, architects, and de-signers should consider when deciding whether to reuse a building. The criteria were classified as technical, economic, social, spatial and environmental. To achieve the main objective, we looked into the prefer-ences of current and potential practitioners who might be involved in the adaptive reuse of buildings with regard to the criteria. The most significant criteria were validated using a survey method.
