Very sad to hear a few days ago that a TU Delft colleague, and friend, Professor Tillmann Klein passed away. https://t.co/Pu4KqQPVsS
Such a kind, generous, fun and important man. Heartfelt condolences to his family, friends and colleagues at @BKTUDelft

This is a useful article with quite a bit of information on how resources are beginning to be tracked through a products lifecycle

[Remy Le Moigne @remylemoigne]

To maintain the value of a product in the economy for as long as possible, information on the product design, composition and condition is critical. With this information, an end-of-life product can be converted back into a resource.
