Operationalizing BioSSbD: A safe‐and‐sustainable‐by‐design framework for biorefineries

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biorefineries are central to the transition toward a circular bioeconomy; however, their increasing scale and technological heterogeneity, and the integration of biological, chemical, and thermochemical processes introduce complex challenges related to safety, sustainability, and operational reliability. Existing Safe‐and‐Sustainable‐by‐Design

Evaluation of sensitivity and specificity of Kato-Katz and circulating cathodic antigen in terms of Schistosoma japonicum using latent class analysis

Scientific Reports
Schistosoma japonicum is endemic in the Philippines. The Kato-Katz (KK) method was used to diagnose S. japonicum. This is impractical, particularly when the sample size is limited.

Využití S-LCA v kontextu CSR

, 2016
Očekávání společnosti, aby firmy převzali širší zodpovědnost za dopad svých obchodních aktivit, představuje výzvu, přijímanou firmami, které si přejí vést své aktivity zodpovědným způsobem. Sociální posuzování životního cyklu (S-LCA) lze definovat jako metodu, jež se používá k hodnocení dopadů v rámci celého životního cyklu výrobku.

Unveiling opportunities and challenges for a circular approach to macaúba biorefining: a technological roadmap

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The macaúba fruit, native to tropical and subtropical regions, has received considerable attention in recent years as a promising raw material for the production of advanced biofuels in Brazil. However, the development of large‐scale biomass requires overcoming significant challenges, such as designing circular biorefineries.

Extending social life cycle assessment to capture technological change: A case study in AI-driven laser manufacturing for the aerospace sector

Cleaner and Responsible Consumption
This study addresses a limitation in Social Life Cycle Assessment (S-LCA): its reliance on value chain actors, which limits the detection of social impacts from technological changes in the core processes when supply chains are largely intact. We propose
