Vita

Jule Jeschonowski-Papstein, born in Nettetal in 1995, has been a scholarship holder at the INZIN Institute in cooperation with Veolia since October 2021. Previously, she worked as a research assistant at the University of Wuppertal in the teaching and research area of construction management and construction industry in the field of modern construction management as well as the digitization and optimization of processes within the framework of BIM. She studied industrial engineering with a specialization in production/logistics and manufacturing at the HS Niederrhein and HS Hamm-Lippstadt. During her master’s degree, she taught statistics as a lecturer and also gained practical experience at Daimler, Deutsche Bahn and Andritz Küsters in the areas of project management and process optimization.

Research topic

In contrast to the linear product life cycle, a material or object in a circular economy becomes the starting product for a new object or material at the end of its useful life. A central aspect of this circular economy is ecodesign. Through a systematic and comprehensive approach to product design, eco-design reduces the environmental impact over the entire life cycle and is therefore one of the measures that attempt to decouple economic growth from resource consumption. There is a great need for research in this area, as previous political and legal efforts have mainly focused on the energy efficiency of energy-related products, but ecodesign also includes many different components (e.g. reparability, recyclability, minimum service life, etc.) that have received little attention to date.
