The following files are part of the following publication: Title: High-Resolution Dynamic Material Flow Analysis to Elucidate Plastic Flows in Waste Management Systems Authors: Yiwen Zhang, Zhanyun Wang, Masahiro Oguchi, Haruhisa Yamamoto, Bernd Nowack DPMFA_Plastic_JP_inclExport_base.db. SQLite database for base model between 1990 and 2023. DPMFA_Plastic_JP_inclExport_BC_extended.db. SQLite database for extended model for the building and construction sector between 1950 and 1989. runner_{polymer type}.ps1, runner_{polymer type}_extended.ps1. Powershell script to execute the simulation of base and extended model. TruncatingFunctions.py, setup_model_new.py, script_plot.py. Python scripts to initialize the Dynamic Probabilistic Material Flow Analysis (DPMFA) model. Scripts are based on “Kawecki et al. (2021): Polymer-specific dynamic probabilistic material flow analysis of seven polymers in Europe from 1950 to 2016” and adopted to use powershell script for execution. SensitivityAnalysis_Scripts.zip. Python scripts for generate databases for sensitivity analysis and conduct sensitivity analysis. figures_paper.ipynb. Jupyter notebook for data visualization. res_csv.zip. Raw model outputs saved as .csv files. Files are organized by flow/process type (inflow, outflow, stock or sink), polymer type, corresponding flow/process. SensitivityAnalysis_ResSummary.zip. Summarized sensitivity analysis results as csv.
