Beatriz Pérez Horno

I am a last year PhD student at KTH Royal Institute of Technology researching how the Circular Economy unfolds in practice, with a particular focus on recycling. My work examines the complexity and heterogeneity of recycling practices, and their role and limitations in contributing to a Circular Economy. Empirically, my work has been looking into Steel Recycling (mostly in Sweden) and Solar Panel Decommissioning in Sweden, where in the later I have been the main researcher in CircSolar project – which focus has been to develop a proposal for a new national system for the circular management of solar panels in Sweden.
