Arvid Svenson

I am employed as a PhD student at the Department of Industrial Economics and Management. My research focuses on the Circular Economy, with a particular emphasis on Swedish process industries. My research examines how circular business models and supply chains are developed and implemented in practice. A central aspect of this work is to analyse how established industrial processes and practices are related to and reinterpreted within the framework of the Circular Economy.

Currently, I am conducting data collection in two sectors: the Swedish steel industry and the pulp and paper industry. The work is primarily based on case studies and interviews with actors in these industries, with the aim of developing a deeper understanding of how circularity takes shape in industrial practice.

In addition, I teach in two courses: ME2003 Research Methodology and ME2085 Energy Transformation, where I am involved in both teaching and supervision.
