USEtox: The UNEP-SETAC consensus model for life-cycle impacts on human health and ecosystems
Life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) characterizes emissions for the life-cycle assessment (LCA) of a product by translating these emissions into their potential impacts on human health, ecosystems, global climate and other resources.

AI in chemical engineering: From promise to practice
Abstract Artificial intelligence (AI) in chemical engineering has moved from promise to practice: physics‐aware (gray‐box) models are gaining traction, reinforcement learning complements model predictive control (MPC), and generative AI powers documentation, digitization, and safety workflows.

Reported environmental impacts of shrimp aquaculture from life cycle assessments (LCAs) vary by over fiftyfold. These discrepancies stem from methodological inconsistencies, which often outweigh actual differences in farming practices. Furthermore, areas of environmental concern including land use change, biodiversity, and toxicity impacts are excluded

The critical parameters of the human health impact calculation [PDF]
There are many LCA methods and models (e.g. CML 1992, Eco-Indicator 95, IMPACT 2002+, TRACI, USEtox, etc.), used to characterize environmental impacts. Only four LCIA methods include spatial dimension at different geographical levels: Impact World+, LC ...

Recent Advances in Life Cycle Assessment and Other Sustainability Metrics
ABSTRACT This article is a review of advances in sustainability metric (SM), focusing on life cycle assessment (LCA) and material flow analysis (MFA), the most commonly used among all SMs. The presentations at the past 10 Society and Materials (SAM) conferences were used as a database.

This review synthesizes life cycle assessment and life cycle costing evidence on supercapacitors, highlighting common approaches and gaps. It explains how inconsistent boundaries and functional units limit comparability and propose practical reporting and scenario guidance is proposed to strengthen representativeness and support robust sustainability ...

Abstract The textile industry is under pressure to adopt sustainable production methods because its contribution to global warming is expected to rise by 50% by 2030. One solution is to increase the use of recycled raw material. The use of recycled raw material must be considered holistically, including its environmental and economic impacts.
