Description

The aim of this project is to improve the robustness of material flow analysis (MFA) by taking stock of existing knowledge on this tool. This includes identifying the scale and scope of MFA, the types of data mobilized, data acquisition methods, technologies used and analysis methods. The project plans to document these various aspects, without claiming to be exhaustive, in order to provide an overview of current AFM-related practices.
