Blockchain Implementation Challenges for Sustainable Supply Chains
Blockchain technology (BT) has attracted a lot of interest and buzz as a revolutionary innovation. Organizations are now thinking about implementing this technology because of its upsides. Cost reductions, improved accountability and traceability, and increased sustainability are some possible advantages that have been highlighted. Even though most fortune businesses have considered blockchain, the investment has significantly decreased. While blockchain technology has generated considerable interest and promise, the significant drop in investment among large firms can be attributed to several factors, including the technology’s complexity and uncertainty, evolving regulatory challenges, the need for a clear return on investment, and competing priorities within organizations. As technology matures and demonstrates its usefulness in specific use cases, we may see an expansion of giant corporations’ investment in blockchain, yet more measured and strategic.

Life Cycle Thinking for a Circular Bioeconomy
The circular bioeconomy (CBE) is an increasingly popular method used to add value to bio-based products. However, these products entail impacts on sustainability that can be assessed by life cycle thinking (LCT). LCT is an approach to assess the impacts of products throughout their life cycles by using different tools, namely: (environmental) life cycle assessment (LCA), life cycle costing (LCC), social life cycle assessment (SLCA) and life cycle sustainability assessment (LCSA), which is a combination of the three and aims to assess the impacts of all of the three dimensions of sustainability.

Modelling Freight Last Mile
The transport of freight involves numerous intermediate steps, such as freight consolidation, truck allocation, and routing, all of which exhibit high day-to-day variability. On the delivery side, drivers usually cover specific geographic regions, also known as clusters, to optimise operational efficiency. A crucial aspect of this process is the effective allocation of resources to match business requirements. The discrete-event simulation (DES) technique excels in replicating intricate real-world operations and can integrate a multitude of stochastic variables, thereby enhancing its utility for decision making.
