Figure 3
The table comprises three columns: "Low-value waste items," "Material flows in a waste-to-resource SC," and "Resulting types of waste-to-resource SC." The first column categorizes waste items into two groups: low-value and high-value, with examples provided. The second column illustrates flow processes of waste, showing pathways like recycling, reuse, repair, and remanufacturing, particularly for high-value items. The third column describes the nature of resulting waste-to-resource supply chains, indicating homogeneity or heterogeneity depending on the waste item's classification. The table retains a structured layout with two distinct row groupings for low-value and high-value waste items. There are directional arrows indicating material flows between waste and processes, emphasizing the transition of materials throughout the supply chain. The design effectively facilitates navigation through the hierarchical relationship between waste types and their respective transformations.
