Symposium on Circular Economy and Urban Mining Happening in Italy (May 21-23, 2025)

Event Description

Following the great success of the 2024 edition, we are excited to announce that from now on the SUM Symposium will be held every year! SUM 2025 - 8th Symposium on Circular Economy and Urban Mining will be held from 21 to 23 May 2025 in a wonderful location to be announced soon.

Saving and recovery of resources and increasing need of environmental sustainability have been the driving forces for the development of Circular Economy and Urban Mining strategies. These represent a real revolution in waste management as well in several other fields. In order to optimise them, a scientific approach is necessary, involving all the different disciplines (Engineering, Economy, Chemistry, etc.), all possible stakeholders (industries, researchers, waste management companies, citizens, decision makers, administrators, regulators, politicians, etc.) and considering all the implementation aspects including the most critical ones, such as quality of recycled products, sustainable management of residues, symbiosis between producers and recyclers, stability of markets, end of waste regulations, role of final sinks, etc.
