Feedstock characteristics
Scenari Scenario Scenario
Metric Unit o1 2 3
Mass of product, M kg 0.9 0.9 0.9
Mass of raw materials, M' kg 1 1 1
Mass of feedstock from recycled sources, MR kg 0 0 0
Mass of feedstock from reused sources, MU kg 0 0 0
Fraction of feedstock from recycled sources, FR =
MR/M' - 0 0 0
Fraction of feedstock from reused sources, FU = MU/M' - 0 0 0
Mass of virgin feedstock, V' = M'*(1-F R-FU) kg 1 1 1
(Check: mass of virgin feedstock, V = M-M R -M U ) kg 1 1 1

Non-recovered waste
characteristics
Scenario Scenario Scenario
Metric Unit 1 2 3
Mass of waste from recycling of feedstock not in final
product, W'F kg 0 0 0
Mass of waste from recycling manufacturing waste,
W'C kg 0 0 0
Mass of non-recovered waste from manufacturing,
W'O kg 0.1 0.1 0.1
Mass of waste from recycling feedstock in final
product, WF kg 0 0 0
Mass of waste from recycling at EoL, WC kg 0 0 0
Mass of non-recovered waste at EoL, WO kg 0.9 0.9 0.9
Total mass of non-recovered waste, W' = W+W' O+
(W' F+W' c )/2 kg 1 1 1

Linear Flow Index

Scenario Scenario Scenario
Metric Unit 1 2 3
Linear Flow Index, LFI' = (V'+W')/(2M+(W F-WC)/2+
(W' F-W' C)/2) - 1 1 1

Utility
Scenario Scenario Scenari
Metric Unit 1 2 o3
unit of
Product lifetime, L time 1 1 1
unit of
Industry average lifetime, LAV time 1 1 1
Product intensity, U - 1 1 1
Industry average intensity, UAV - 1 1 1
Utility, X = L/LAV*U/UAV - 1 1 1
Factor, F(X) = 0.9/X - 0.9 0.9 0.9

Material Circularity Indicator
