LCA researcher at Lund University assessing circular organic-waste systems with GIS-assisted life cycle assessment.
ItalyWhat I'm looking for
At Lund University’s BioCircularR, I’m conducting thesis research on a GIS-assisted life cycle assessment of decentralized organic-waste systems in Bengaluru, comparing composting, anaerobic digestion, and centralized treatment.
I develop life cycle inventories from literature, technical sources, and company information, reconciling incomplete datasets and checking mass-balance consistency. I model scenarios in SimaPro and Excel, assess hotspots and sensitivity, and document sources and assumptions.
In a university project, I compared plastic and paper food packaging in openLCA to interpret environmental trade-offs. I’ve also completed EPD and Construction LCA bootcamps with One Click LCA, and I’m interested in applying LCA, circularity, and eco-design methods to product and packaging sustainability.
