Physics: LifeCycle Assessment (In Person Face To Face, June) NewSpecialExtra run
- This is the In Person version of the Live Online Event instructor led course.
This workshop will introduce the technique of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to Physical Sciences researchers who are keen to evaluate the use of this technique for their work. With the increasing emphasis on sustainability from all fronts, researchers are now expected to reflect on the sustainability impact of their work, and understand the choices that might be available to them. This half day workshop will introduce the use of EcoInvent software for conducting LCA analyses. The workshop will be held in hybrid format - the in person attendees will have a room reserved in the Maxwell Centre, with refreshments available during the break. Online attendees will attend via zoom. When making your booking please make sure you are booking for the correct format i.e. in person or online.
The workshop will be led by NanoDTC alumnus Dr Taylor Uekert, who is currently at the Circular Economy for Energy Materials Team at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Colorado.
