Life Cycle Assessment

The development of sustainable strategies for the preparation of innovative, highly efficient, reusable and regenerable advanced materials for energy conversion and water remediation is a growing necessity.
We carry out analyses of their entire life cycle (Life Cycle Assessment) with advanced software with the final aim to evaluate their actual sustainability. We represent an expert support for companies in the life cycle analysis of products and processes (ecodesign) and preparation of sustainable report.

Thesis proposals are also available for Master’s students!!


Tools

SimaPro is a comprehensive LCA software tool. It is designed to assist users in conducting detailed Life Cycle Assessments for products, processes, and services.

Ecoinvent is a widely used life cycle inventory (LCI) database. It provides a vast and regularly updated collection of data on the environmental impacts associated with various processes and products.

 

Sustainability report

A Sustainability Report, or ESG report (Environment, Social, Governance), is a crucial tool for companies aiming to demonstrate their commitment to responsible practices. It provides an overview of a company’s activities and impacts beyond financial considerations, encompassing aspects such as resource management, environmental impact, social policies, and community involvement.
The transparency offered by the sustainability report not only meets the expectations of consumers and investors but also helps define the company’s long-term strategy, contributing to building a sustainable and responsible future.
