Bedarf und Verfügbarkeit von Steine-Erden-Rohstoffen
This article, published in Chapter 6 of the anthology “Handbuch Rohstoffwirtschaft” (Handbook of Raw Materials Management), examines the long-term demand for and availability of primary and secondary mineral raw materials in the stone and earth sector, based on various scenarios with regard to overall economic development. By projecting GDP, construction volume, the development of economic sectors that demand raw materials, and raw material productivity, the expected demand for raw materials up to 2045 is determined and the extent to which domestically produced primary raw materials will be substituted by secondary raw materials in the future is presented.
