Abstract

Attempts to track material flows and the calculation of efficiency for material systems go hand in hand. Questions of where materials come from, where materials go to, and how much material is lost along the way are embedded in human societies. This article reviews material flows, their analysis, and progress toward material efficiency. We focus first on material flow analysis (MFA) and the three key tenants of any MFA: presentation of materials, visualization of the flow structure, and insight derived from analysis. Reviewing recent literature, we explore how each of these concepts is described, organized, and presented in MFA studies. We go on to show the role of MFA in material efficiency calculations and what-if scenario analysis for informed decision-making. We investigate the origins and motivations behind the material efficiency paradigm and the key efficiency strategies and practices developed in recent years and conclude by suggesting priorities for a future research agenda. Expected final online publication date for the Annual Review of Materials Research, Volume 52 is July 2022. Please see http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates for revised estimates.

物料流动及效率

试图跟踪物料流动和计算物料系统的效率是齐头并进的。材料从哪里来，到哪里去，以及在这个过程中损失了多少材料，这些问题一直存在于人类社会中。这篇文章回顾了材料流，它们的分析，以及在材料效率方面的进展。我们首先关注材料流分析(MFA)和任何MFA的三个关键租户:材料的呈现，流结构的可视化，以及从分析中获得的洞察力。回顾最近的文献，我们探讨了这些概念是如何在MFA研究中被描述、组织和呈现的。我们继续展示MFA在材料效率计算中的作用，以及对知情决策的假设情景分析。我们调查了材料效率范式背后的起源和动机，以及近年来发展起来的关键效率策略和实践，并通过建议未来研究议程的优先事项来结束。预计《材料研究年度评论》第52卷的最终在线出版日期为2022年7月。修订后的估计数请参阅http://www.annualreviews.org/page/journal/pubdates。
