Sustainability Assessments are interwoven and integrated with technical and theoretical breakthroughs from across work packages.

Research will include:

  • Cradle-to-grave life-cycle assessments
  • Whole life value commercial analyses
  • Responsible innovation and product commercialisation
  • Environmental systems analyses
  • Environmental economics and legal frameworks

 

International partnerships provide wider context and facilitate access to specialized US and EU chemical manufacturing sustainability databases to deliver global calibration and validation of SCHEMA outputs.

Our industry partners are widely committed to sharing to sharing sustainability data to ensure our analyses are specific, industry relevant, and anticipate changes in regulation, legislation, and economics.
