It is based on a system in which materials and energy are continuously reused. Developing this model requires new organizational approaches, greater producer responsibility, and the creation of new technologies and economic frameworks. Our vision demonstrates that waste is not only a source of pollution but also an opportunity to create value through its recovery and reuse.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n    \n            <\/div>\n                                        <div class=\"grid_media grid_media-image\">\n                                <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/mines-urbaines.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/deco-expertise-1.webp\" alt=\"\">\n    \n                <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n\n<section    \n        class=\"block-listing block-listing-4-cmu\"\n        data-dark-bg=\"true\">\n    <div class=\"container\">\n        <div class=\"grid\">\n            <div class=\"grid_title\">\n                            <div class=\"uppertitle\">\n            <div class=\"uppertitle_content\">\n                Our Research\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    \n                                \n                                \n                                        \n                        \n                    \n            <h2\n        class=\"title title-section\"\n                        >From Electronic Waste to Valuable Resources<\/h2>\n    \n                            <div class=\"editor\"><p>The MINES Paris team examines how the circular economy can be structured, managed, and optimized through the economic, managerial, and governance dimensions of urban mining, in connection with the circular economy.
