The core task of the CE-Assistant is to evaluate and select an R-Strategy - namely Reuse, Remanufacturing, Recycling, and Recovery. + +Based on the principles of Catena-X, the CE Assistant is aligned with a comprehensive assessment process that guides its functionality. This process is anchored in the Catena-X Digital Twin Framework, which combines the virtual representation and real-world insights. + +The CE Assistant; a set of standards, aspect models, APIs, system architectures, and decision logics; fosters the development of data-centric, Catena-X compliant decision support system for circular economy strategies. The core circularity lies in the flow of technical information in a collaborative effort involving entities across the automotive value chain. + +The concept of a Digital Twin (DT) builds the basis by providing a holistic virtual counterpart of products. The DT includes a set of unique identifiers, an evolving spectrum of aspects, connections to multiple data sources, and the capacity to track the entire lifecycle of assets and capture both individual and fleet-level knowledge. + +In accordance with IDSA and Gaia-X principles, interconnectivity and data sovereignty, the CE-Assistant bases on the principles of interoperability, realized by the Connector KIT (EDC) and Data Chain KIT (Item Relation Ship, IRS). + +The selection of circular economy strategies requires a comprehensive evaluation of emissions, natural resource preservation, energy management, and waste reduction. However, the effectiveness of such evaluations depends on access to detailed data covering the vehicle’s history, components, materials, and condition + +This is where the CE Assistant can help by supporting a user-centered approach that bridges the gap between data availability and informed decision-making. By offering transparency into the environmental implications of diverse circular economy strategies, the CE Assistant facilitates a faster, information based, and efficient decision rooted in the digital twin's insights. + +### Business Context + +The CE Assistant provides decision support and circular strategies, enabling several key features for businesses: + +1. **Component-level decision support:** The KIT provides decision support for selecting circular strategies at the component level. +2. **Efficient data-driven decisions:** Users can make faster and more efficient decisions based on data analysis. +3. **Enhanced circularity:** The KIT contributes to increasing the circularity of products and meeting reuse quotas. +4. **Sustainability milestones:** It helps achieve sustainability indicators and goals. +5. **Transparency on secondary materials:** The KIT offers transparency regarding the availability of secondary materials. +6. **Streamlined vehicle dismantling:** It optimizes the process of vehicle dismantling for improved resource recovery. + +### User Journey and Architecture Overview + +The user journey describes the system interaction of the CE Assistant with the user, the dismantling lead, with the aim of providing a recommendation for a component-level circular strategy for end-of-life vehicles. This involves breaking down the process of holistic decision-making into individual process steps and identifying the interaction with the user/system at each process step. + +#### Figure 5 + +![User Journey - CE Assistant ](resources/adoption-view/CE_assistant_user_journey.svg) + +The following figure shows how the CE Assistant is embedded in the overall architecture: + +##### Figure 6 + +![Architecture View - CE Assistant ](resources/adoption-view/CE_assistant_architecture_view.svg) + +### Logic / Schema + +To assess the appropriate R-Strategy for individual components, it's essential to have various types of EoL data available at different decision-making stages within the logic. This involves distinguishing between process-related, product type-specific, and instance-specific information. + +Process-related data encompasses details derived from the processes and operations of the executing company, such as the CO2 footprint of processes, energy consumption, and waste streams. Product type-specific data is rooted in the planning and development phase of the evaluated component and is influenced by the vehicle type and its design. This category includes information like weight, dimensions, installation requirements, and the bill of materials as built. Instance-specific data reflects the usage and maintenance conditions of individual components (e.g. mileage, quality status). This information is collected throughout the product's lifecycle using DT technology. + +The decision support regarding the best R-Strategy is a multi-stage process, starting with the logic for the technical feasibility assessment. Because only when the R-Strategy is technically feasible, it must be checked for other indicators afterwards. + +The outcome of the technical feasibility assessment will be analyzed to determine if an R-Strategy has to be excluded at the beginning based on regulatory requirements regarding an R-Strategy or a defect in functionality of specific components. + +As shown in Figure 7, the process is started by entering the vehicle identification number (VIN) into the system, thereby requesting the corresponding Catena-X data. The registered companies in the Catena-X network act as data providers for this vehicle-specific data, as they register respective assets and sub-models. Catena-X Shared Services handle existing data models, contracts, usage and access control policies, and ultimately the final data exchange. + +The system presents the information, such as corresponding vehicle, component and material based on DT data. This data is provided for the first overall manual inspection and evaluation. After that, the user selects the most relevant components for the R-Strategy decision. The decision logic is applied for this component and the possible R-Strategies are identified. + +The following criteria are evaluated in a chronological order: the basic reuse-potential, material composition and remaining lifetime in comparison with the specific thresholds and the disassembly capability. + +If one or more of these criteria are not fulfilled, the component will only be assigned to recovery or recycling. If the component qualifies for disassembly, a manual visual inspection and a functional check are conducted. For components, where the visual condition is relevant, such as body parts and interior components, the visual inspection is conducted first. In contrast, components, for which the technical condition is of significant relevance, such as engines and gearboxes, are first subjected to a functional test. Here, the data can also be provided in the Catena-X network as an update of the DT. Thereafter, a quality comparison of the component condition with threshold values takes place. When the quality is insufficient for reuse, the technical check for remanufacturing is carried out chronologically: assemblability, cleanability and restorability / upgradability. Finally, a possible strategy is given to the user as an intermediate result before further environmental assessment. + +#### Figure 7 + +![Decision logic regarding technical feasibility](resources/adoption-view/CE_assistant_technical_feasibility_logic.svg) + +After assessing the technical feasibility, the environmental impact of the previously selected component is calculated and evaluated using the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, following ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 standards. R-strategies that are not technically feasible are excluded from the subsequent decision logic, as depicted in Figure 8. + +First, to obtain LCA-relevant activity data for EoL processes, process-related data of the dismantling and different R-Strategy processes needs to be entered into the decision support system by the user or retrieved from internal or external data collections. Examples for essential process-related data are: Use of process flows, operating resources, such as energy and material consumption, and location factors (e.g. distance to the nearest remanufacturer). + +With the help of the process-related data in combination with product type-specific data requested from the Catena-X network, a subsequent input and output analysis of the dismantling process and remaining R-strategies leads to the collection of parameters in a Life Cycle Inventory (LCI): material consumption, energy consumption (electricity and fuels) and direct emission release (e.g. in CO2, SO2, NOx). Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA) methods are then used to transfer the LCI results into a quantifiable environmental impact, such as global warming potential, of the corresponding R-Strategy in addition to the previous dismantling. To note that the resulting impact values are a pure process view of the EoL, the intermediate results are referred to as "relative total environmental impact" of the assessed R-strategies. + +In order to decide for the best R-Strategy, the respective R-Strategy can be compared with each other and a comparison with production can also be made. + +Finally, all absolute environmental impacts of the R-strategies are compared, and the most environmentally friendly strategy is recommended as a decision support for the dismantling lead. Moreover, the results of the CE Assistant can also be made available to other stakeholders via the Catena-X network to enable, for example, feedback-to-design for product development. + +In the future research, consideration should also be given to the extent to which the use of a reused or remanufactured component causes emissions compared to a new component. Modern technological components can achieve a much higher level of efficiency in use, so that despite high emissions, it may make more sense to produce a new component than to extend the life cycle of the old component, which may have a significantly higher utilization cost. + +##### Figure 8 + +![Decision logic regarding environmental assessment](resources/adoption-view/CE_assistant_environmental_assessment.svg) + +### Whitepapers + +If you are eager to dive deeper into the world of the CE Assistant, including its data provision via the Digital Twin and expert insights on technically feasible circular strategies and environmentally friendly choices, we invite you to explore our informative publications. + +#### End-of-life decision support to enable circular economy in the automotive industry based on digital twin data + +- **Abstract**: With the EU Green Deal and the UN Sustainable Developments Goals, the vision of a greenhouse gas-neutral and resource-efficient economy is already firmly anchored in world politics. In this context, the automotive industry faces many challenges including the increasing scarcity of natural resources, a rising demand in terms of sustainable vehicle design, production and materials sourcing. Due to all this, end-of-life decisions regarding dismantling have become increasingly important. A high proportion of secondary materials will be required in the vehicles of the future. To response to these challenges, companies have turned their focus towards the circular economy as a central approach to close material loops. In the German research project “Catena-X” a new data ecosystem with digital twins is one enabler that is being developed. The digital twins represent a promising approach to the circular economy by ensuring transparent, product-specific and end-to-end data exchange throughout the entire product lifecycle, from the material sourcing to the eventual dismantling and recycling. As one particular and unique solution, a decision framework that facilitates the best circular strategy at the end of a vehicle's life is developed and presented in this paper. The underlying data-driven decision support framework is based on circular economy KPIs. This includes material, components and specific vehicle KPIs to best identify the most suitable circular strategy. The framework was methodologically developed by an interdisciplinary team of partners, who are stakeholders throughout the value chain and participants in the Catena-X project. An integrated approach of user-centered design, an adapted version of the V-model and the Scaled Agile Framework were used for the methodology in the development of the solution. The paper presents the concept of a digital twin for a decision support system, that includes a central decision logic that also includes the relevant KPIs and a survey for evaluating the decision logic utilized with a chosen dismantling company. +- **Link**: [End-of-life decision support to enable circular economy in the automotive industry based on digital twin data - ScienceDirect](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212827123006091) + +##### Empowering End-of-Life Vehicle Decision Making with Cross-Company Data Exchange and Data Sovereignty via Catena-X + +- **Abstract:** The mobility sector is the world’s second-largest producer of energy-related CO2 emissions, and it is facing a global resource shortage. The demand for circular products, the use of secondary materials in future vehicles, and the need for sustainable business models in the mobility sector is increasing. However, a transparent and end-to-end data exchange throughout the entire value network is missing, which is hindering an efficient circular economy. Relevant information on the vehicle, its components and materials at the end of the product life cycle are often missing. In this context, this paper presents a decision support system based on Digital Twin data for a circular economy solution as a software application. It was developed within the German research project Catena-X following an integrated approach of user-centered design, the V-model, and within the Scaled Agile Framework. By combining these methodological approaches, customer-oriented solutions were developed and continuously improved at each stage of development to shorten the time-to-market. Catena-X is based on Gaia-X principles. In Gaia-X, necessary core services are developed, and contraction negotiation for data exchange and usage policies is enabled and implemented. The decision support system provides important information about the exact composition and condition of the vehicle, its components, and its materials. Thus, it helps to improve efficiency, sustainability, and the implementation of the circular economy. The decision support system was tested and validated with a use case that provided Digital Twin data on the end-of-life vehicle. +- **Link**: [Sustainability | Free Full-Text | Empowering End-of-Life Vehicle Decision Making with Cross-Company Data Exchange and Data Sovereignty via Catena-X (mdpi.com)](https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/15/9/7187) + +##### Digital Twins for Circular Economy - Enabling Decision Support for R-Strategies + +- **Abstract:** Digital twins (DT) for circular economy (CE) offer a promising approach as part of digital data ecosystems for more sustainable value creation.

Digital platforms offering marketplace services are essential to enable trading of secondary materials and components, provide transparency into supply and demand that potential buyers and sellers can expect. + +The main goals of the Marketplace are: (1) to match the demand and the supply of available components and secondary raw materials and (2) to provide transparency on sales opportunities for used components which can be, for example, reused or re-manufactured. + +If offered, additional services such as grading, certifications for the offered listings (components or secondary materials) and transport handling and logistics could support trading processes. + +### Business Context + +A secondary marketplace enables closing the loop on economical and physical layers. Following the logic described in the previous chapter, there could be multiple scenarios related to R-strategies on how secondary marketplaces enable a circular economy. + +Potential sales scenarios: + +- Dismantling companies selling old components and material/scrap; +- Automotive manufacturers selling old unused components; +- Automotive manufacturers selling production waste and scrap; +- and others. + +Potential purchase scenarios: + +- Automotive companies buying components for re-manufacturing; +- Workshops buying components for re-use; +- Recyclers buying production waste and scrap; +- and others. + +In all of those cases, having additional information (e.g. product carbon footprint or digital product passport details) on the products offered on the marketplace is beneficial. + +### User Journey and Architecture Overview + +In general, there are several goals that buyers and sellers pursue on a secondary marketplace: + +- As a (Core) Purchaser, I want to search and filter for market supply on OE number level to match the market offers towards my demand. +- As a (Core) Purchaser, I want to reach as many possible sellers as possible to purchase parts that I cannot procure today. This includes brokers I don't buy from today. +- As a (Core) Seller, I want to place offers on the marketplace with standard upload tools and manually. +- As a (Core) Seller, I want to reach as many possible customers as possible to maximize my turnover. This includes customers I don't sell to today. + +The key user journey relevant in Catena-X circular economy area relates to the need of a buyer to have full reliable information on a product that he is intending to purchase. This is especially important given that many buyers are looking for parts for re-manufacturing or re-use, where product quality plays a vital role. Furthermore, in case of recycling, recyclers are interested to know material composition and additional information that would influence their purchasing decision. + +Some information could be provided by a variety of data models, but the highest value lies within the generic digital product passport (and by extension, battery passport, sealant passport, transmission passport). When a seller is publishing a listing with a product that he is willing to sell, there is only a limited amount of information he can provide with it, mostly the one available from the visual inspection or on-board data (such as mileage, OE-number, brand) as well as logistical/ sales information (such as location or price). When a potential buyer views the listing, he should have a possibility to request additional details from a data provider of the generic digital product passport (if available) for that product (see diagram below). More information on the digital product passport can be found in the [Ecopass KIT](https://eclipse-tractusx.github.io/docs-kits/kits/Eco_Pass_KIT/page-adoption-view/). + +#### Figure 9 + +![User Journey - Secondary Marketplace](resources/adoption-view/user_journey_secondary_marketplace.svg) + +This process is reflected in the architecture for communicating with the Catena-X network and data providers of the battery passport data model, as presented below. + +#### Figure 10 + +![Communication Architecture](resources/adoption-view/communication_architecture.svg) + +When it comes to the data exchange schema and other details, see the [Triangle for Secondary Marketplace](https://catena-x.net/de/standard-library) document for more information on how such a request could be realized within Catena-X environment and according to applicable guidelines (e.g. on interoperability and data sovereignty). In a decentral environment, such attributes as manufacturer part ID and OE number play a vital role in order to get access to the right component and the right data model at data provider’s side. + +### Semantic Models + +In the following, relevant semantic models for the secondary marketplace are listed. For further information about the listed data models please refer to the Catena-X standards library for the respective data model, marked as “CX-“, which contains the standardized data models with further descriptions and explanations. The standards library can be founded here: [Catena-X Standard-Library](https://catena-x.net/de/standard-library) + +The Marketplace Offer is an aspect model that is complementary to the concept of a secondary marketplace. It described a product (e.g. a used, dismantled component) that is placed for sale onto the marketplace, with key supporting information such as quantity, quality, or price.

In this context, the automotive industry faces many challenges including the increasing scarcity of natural resources, a rising demand in terms of sustainable vehicle design, production and materials sourcing. Due to all this, end-of-life decisions regarding dismantling have become increasingly important. A high proportion of secondary materials will be required in the vehicles of the future. To response to these challenges, companies have turned their focus towards the circular economy as a central approach to close material loops. In the German research project “Catena-X” a new data ecosystem with digital twins is one enabler that is being developed. The digital twins represent a promising approach to the circular economy by ensuring transparent, product-specific and end-to-end data exchange throughout the entire product lifecycle, from the material sourcing to the eventual dismantling and recycling. As one particular and unique solution, a decision framework that facilitates the best circular strategy at the end of a vehicle's life is developed and presented in this paper. The underlying data-driven decision support framework is based on circular economy KPIs. This includes material, components and specific vehicle KPIs to best identify the most suitable circular strategy. The framework was methodologically developed by an interdisciplinary team of partners, who are stakeholders throughout the value chain and participants in the Catena-X project. An integrated approach of user-centered design, an adapted version of the V-model and the Scaled Agile Framework were used for the methodology in the development of the solution. The paper presents the concept of a digital twin for a decision support system, that includes a central decision logic that also includes the relevant KPIs and a survey for evaluating the decision logic utilized with a chosen dismantling company. -- **Link**: [End-of-life decision support to enable circular economy in the automotive industry based on digital twin data - ScienceDirect](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212827123006091) - -##### Empowering End-of-Life Vehicle Decision Making with Cross-Company Data Exchange and Data Sovereignty via Catena-X - -- **Abstract:** The mobility sector is the world’s second-largest producer of energy-related CO2 emissions, and it is facing a global resource shortage. The demand for circular products, the use of secondary materials in future vehicles, and the need for sustainable business models in the mobility sector is increasing. However, a transparent and end-to-end data exchange throughout the entire value network is missing, which is hindering an efficient circular economy. Relevant information on the vehicle, its components and materials at the end of the product life cycle are often missing. In this context, this paper presents a decision support system based on Digital Twin data for a circular economy solution as a software application. It was developed within the German research project Catena-X following an integrated approach of user-centered design, the V-model, and within the Scaled Agile Framework. By combining these methodological approaches, customer-oriented solutions were developed and continuously improved at each stage of development to shorten the time-to-market. Catena-X is based on Gaia-X principles. In Gaia-X, necessary core services are developed, and contraction negotiation for data exchange and usage policies is enabled and implemented. The decision support system provides important information about the exact composition and condition of the vehicle, its components, and its materials. Thus, it helps to improve efficiency, sustainability, and the implementation of the circular economy. The decision support system was tested and validated with a use case that provided Digital Twin data on the end-of-life vehicle. -- **Link**: [Sustainability | Free Full-Text | Empowering End-of-Life Vehicle Decision Making with Cross-Company Data Exchange and Data Sovereignty via Catena-X (mdpi.com)](https://www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/15/9/7187) - -##### Digital Twins for Circular Economy - Enabling Decision Support for R-Strategies - -- **Abstract:** Digital twins (DT) for circular economy (CE) offer a promising approach as part of digital data ecosystems for more sustainable value creation. By mapping and analyzing product, component and material specific data along the lifecycle, it is possible to address current challenges such as climate change and resource scarcity. Within Catena-X, specific solutions based on this cross-company exchanged data and information are developed. Here, the “CE-Assistant” is presented. It is an application, which identifies the best CE-Strategy based on DT data at the end of a vehicle's life. -- **Link:** [OA_Mügge_6-2022 | INDUSTRIE-MANAGEMENT](https://www.industrie-management.de/node/556) - -#### Logic / Schema - -In order to evaluate which R-Strategy can be applied to individual components, instance-specific data must be available. This is ensured using DT data throughout the product lifecycle. Such an DT enables the collection of instance-specific data on the product, and thus provides the missing EoL data for vehicle disassembly. - -Depending on the decision-making step, instance specific data for the vehicle disassembly is partly necessary or product specific data is sufficient. Decision support regarding the best R-Strategy is preceded by the logic for the technical feasibility. Thus, only when the R-Strategy is technically feasible, it must be checked for other indicators. - -The outcome of the technical feasibility is to analyze if an R-Strategy has to be excluded at the beginning based on regulatory requirements regarding an R-Strategy or a defect in functionality of specific components. - -The process is started by entering the vehicle identification number (VIN) into the system, thereby requesting the corresponding Catena-X data. The registered companies in the Catena-X network act as data providers for this vehicle-specific data, as they register respective assets and sub-models. Catena-X Shared Services handle existing data models, contract, usage and access control policies, and ultimately the final data exchange. - -The system shows the first information, such as corresponding vehicle, component and material based on data from the DT. This data is provided for the first overall manual inspection and evaluation. After that, the user selects the most relevant components for the R-Strategy decision. The decision logic is applied for this component and the possible R-Strategies are identified. - -The core process means in a chronological order: The basic reuse-potential, material composition and remaining lifetime in comparison with the specific thresholds and the disassembly capability. - -If one or more of these criteria are not fulfilled, the component will only be assigned to recovery or recycling. If the component qualifies for disassembly, a manual visual inspection and a functional check are conducted. For components, where the visual condition is relevant, such as body parts and interior components, the visual inspection is conducted first. In contrast, components, for which the technical condition is of significant relevance, such as engines and gearboxes, are first subjected to a functional test. Here, the data can also be provided in the Catena-X network as an update of the DT. Thereafter, a quality comparison of the component condition with threshold values takes place. When the quality is insufficient for reuse, the technical check for remanufacturing is carried out chronologically: Assimilability, cleanability and restorability/upgradability. Finally, a possible strategy is given to the user as a result. - -##### Figure 12 - -![user story flowchart](resources/adoption-view/figure11.svg) - -## Secondary Marketplace - -### Introduction - -A secondary marketplace is fundamental to establish a circular economy where components and materials are available and offered to the interested users creating new value chains and extending the life of the parts and the materials before becoming waste. Digital platforms offering marketplace services are essential to enable trading of secondary materials and components, provide transparency into supply and demand that potential buyers and sellers can expect. - -The main goals of the Marketplace are: (1) to match the demand and the supply of available components and secondary raw materials and (2) to provide transparency on sales opportunities for used components which can be, for example, reused or re-manufactured. - -If offered, additional services such as grading, certifications for the offered listings (components or secondary materials) and transport handling and logistics could support trading processes. - -### Business Context - -A secondary marketplace enables closing the loop on economical and physical layers. Following the logic described in the previous chapter, there could be multiple scenarios related to R-strategies on how secondary marketplaces enable a circular economy. - -Potential sales scenarios: - -- Dismantling companies selling old components and material/scrap; -- Automotive manufacturers selling old unused components; -- Automotive manufacturers selling production waste and scrap; -- and others. - -Potential purchase scenarios: - -- Automotive companies buying components for re-manufacturing; -- Workshops buying components for re-use; -- Recyclers buying production waste and scrap; -- and others. - -In all of those cases, having additional information (e.g. product carbon footprint or digital product passport details) on the products offered on the marketplace is beneficial. - -### User Journey and Architecture Overview - -In general, there are several goals that buyers and sellers pursue on a secondary marketplace: - -- As a (Core) Purchaser, I want to search and filter for market supply on OE number level to match the market offers towards my demand. -- As a (Core) Purchaser, I want to reach as many possible sellers as possible to purchase parts that I cannot procure today. This includes brokers I don't buy from today. -- As a (Core) Seller, I want to place offers on the marketplace with standard upload tools and manually. -- As a (Core) Seller, I want to reach as many possible customers as possible to maximize my turnover. This includes customers I don't sell to today. - -The key user journey relevant in Catena-X circular economy area relates to the need of a buyer to have full reliable information on a product that he is intending to purchase. This is especially important given that many buyers are looking for parts for re-manufacturing or re-use, where product quality plays a vital role. Furthermore, in case of recycling, recyclers are interested to know material composition and additional information that would influence their purchasing decision. - -Some information could be provided by a variety of data models, but the highest value lies within the generic digital product passport (and by extension, battery passport, sealant passport, transmission passport). When a seller is publishing a listing with a product that he is willing to sell, there is only a limited amount of information he can provide with it, mostly the one available from the visual inspection or on-board data (such as mileage, OE-number, brand) as well as logistical/ sales information (such as location or price). When a potential buyer views the listing, he should have a possibility to request additional details from a data provider of the generic digital product passport (if available) for that product (see diagram below). More information on the digital product passport can be found in the [Ecopass KIT](https://eclipse-tractusx.github.io/docs-kits/kits/Eco_Pass_KIT/page-adoption-view/). - -#### Figure 13 - -![User Journey - Secondary Marketplace](resources/adoption-view/user_journey_secondary_marketplace.svg) - -This process is reflected in the architecture for communicating with the Catena-X network and data providers of the battery passport data model, as presented below. - -#### Figure 14 - -![Communication Architecture](resources/adoption-view/communication_architecture.svg) - -When it comes to the data exchange schema and other details, see the [Triangle for Secondary Marketplace](https://catena-x.net/de/standard-library) document for more information on how such a request could be realized within Catena-X environment and according to applicable guidelines (e.g. on interoperability and data sovereignty). In a decentral environment, such attributes as manufacturer part ID and OE number play a vital role in order to get access to the right component and the right data model at data provider’s side. - -### Semantic Models - -In the following, relevant semantic models for the secondary marketplace are listed. For further information about the listed data models please refer to the Catena-X standards library for the respective data model, marked as “CX-“, which contains the standardized data models with further descriptions and explanations. The standards library can be founded here: [Catena-X Standard-Library](https://catena-x.net/de/standard-library) - -The Marketplace Offer is an aspect model that is complementary to the concept of a secondary marketplace. It described a product (e.g. a used, dismantled component) that is placed for sale onto the marketplace, with key supporting information such as quantity, quality, or price. It provides essential information for potential buyers and could be used in the future to exchange product information between multiple marketplaces. This model can therefore be used to exchange offers between multiple marketplaces. As there is no exchange scenario defined yet, the Marketplace Offer is a recommendation and non-normative, since it is so far concerning the business application-internal data structure only. More information on this aspect model can be found under CX-0035 in the standards library or under the following link: [Marketplace Offer](https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/sldt-semantic-models/tree/main/io.catenax.market_place_offer) - -Additionally, two other aspect models could play a supporting role for secondary marketplaces. - -The Return Request aspect model could be used to flag a vehicle or product to indicate that there is a demand or a request for return. It specifies the aspect of the recall of a vehicle part and thus provides the information whether and why a return request exists for a product. More information on this aspect model can be found under CX-0033 in the standards library or under the following link: [Return Request](https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/sldt-semantic-models/tree/main/io.catenax.return_request) - -The Product Passport aspect model could provide reliable details on the product characteristics or lifecycle information, therefore complementing the basic Marketplace Offer information. More information on this aspect model can be found under CX-0103 in the standards library or under the following link: [Digital Product Passport](https://github.com/eclipse-tractusx/sldt-semantic-models/tree/main/io.catenax.generic.digital_product_passport) - ## NOTICE This work is licensed under the [CC-BY-4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode). diff --git a/docs-kits/kits/Circularity_KIT/page-glossary.md b/docs-kits/kits/Circularity_KIT/page-glossary.md index d9f79eb6880..3a0266e9cd1 100644 --- a/docs-kits/kits/Circularity_KIT/page-glossary.md +++ b/docs-kits/kits/Circularity_KIT/page-glossary.md @@ -2,283 +2,100 @@ title: Glossary --- - -| Term | Definition | Source | -| ------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -| Allocation | Partitioning the input or output flows of a process or a product system between the product system under study and one or more other product systems | DIN EN ISO 14040 | -| Attributable process | Those processes that consists of all service, material and energy flows that become, make and carry a product throughout its life cycle. | WBCSD Pathfinder | -| Bio-based Materials | Material of biological origin (biomass excluding material embededded in geological formations and / or fossilised) | European Commission, Categorisation System for the Circular Economy, doi:10.2777/172132, P. 9 | -| Bio-based products | wholly or partly derived from materials of biological origin, excluding materials embedded in geological formations and/or fossilised. | | -| Biomass | Material of biological origin, excluding material embedded in geological formations or transformed material of biological origin, excluding material embedded in geological formations or transformed to fossilized material and excluding peat | DIN ISO 14021 | -| By-Product | Substance or object, resulting from a production process, the primary aim of which is not the production of that item, and does not constitute waste (as defined in Directive 2008/98/E on waste) | Art. 5 No. 1 WFD (Waste framework directive 2008/98/EC) | -| Biodiversity | Biological diversity means the variability among living organisms from all sources including, inter alia, terrestrial, marine and other aquatic ecosystems and the ecological complexes of which they are part: diversity in species, between species and of ecosystems. | Art. 2 UN Convention on biological diversity; ESRS E4 (COM(2023) 5303 final | -| Carbon offsetting | Mechanism for compensatingfor a full PCF or a partial PCF through the prevention of the release of,reduction in, or removal of an amount of GHG emissions in a process outside the product system under study | DIN EN ISO 14067 | -| CAS Number | a unique numerical identifier assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) to every chemical substance described in the open scientific literature. / Except for a small selection of most common substances released under CCBY-NC license the CAS numbers are a proprietary identification scheme to be licensed from CAS (USA) | [CAS REGISTRY / CAS](https://www.cas.org/cas-data/cas-registry) | -| Certificate of Decstruction | An official document issued in accordance with the minimum requirements set out by the European Commission's Decision of February 19, 2002.
