Life cycle assessment
The European Strategy for Plastics in a Circular Economy (COM(2018 28 final) proposes a vision where innovative materials and alternative feedstocks to fossil resources are developed and used...
Life cycle assessment of pasture-based suckler steer weanling-to-beef production systems: Effect of breed and slaughter age
Demand for beef produced from pasture-based diets is rising as it is perceived to be healthier, animal friendly and good for the environment. Animals reared on a solely grass forage diet...
Innovative agrivoltaic systems to produce sustainable energy: An economic and environmental assessment
Agrivoltaic systems are photovoltaic (PV) technologies in which PV panels are mounted at a sufficient height from the ground to enable conventional cultivation practices underneath. Agrivoltaic...
Access a whole set of resources related to LCA: guidance, network, projects, tools and data.
Purpose: A circular (bio)economy is sustained through use of secondary raw material and biomass feedstock. In life cycle assessment (LCA), the approach applied to address the impact of these...
This paper examines the rationale for pursuing environmental objectives by reducing food loss and waste (FLW). The main thrust of the literature on this issue is that FLW reduction can make a major...
The objective of this work was to assess the environmental performances of advanced biofuels produced from perennial energy crops (miscanthus and willow) grown in bioenergy buffer strips (BBS) and compare...
Sustainable healthy diets are high on the research and policy agendas. One of the crucial resources to provide such diets are water resources. This paper provides a brief...
Food Waste because of its composition is considered as a promising feedstock for the production of biofuels and in particular bioethanol. From a technical point of view, the production of bioethanol from lignocellulosic materials is a well-studied...
