Description

This record contains the consolidated workshop presentations on the application of the UN Framework Classification for Resources (UNFC) to anthropogenic resources at the project level. The slides comprise three integrated parts: (1) a general introduction to UNFC and its extension to secondary raw materials; (2) an introduction to SARA4UNFC (the Structured Anthropogenic Resource Assessment for UNFC) developed within the Horizon Europe project FutuRaM including a demonstration of the associated webtool; and (3) highlights from selected case studies that illustrate the application of SARA4UNFC across a range of waste streams. The materials were prepared for a workshop addressed to practitioners, regulators and researchers concerned with the structured, transparent and comparable classification of secondary raw material recovery projects. For more details, please look at the FutuRaM D5.1 report (https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17945112)
