Sustainable water purification: life cycle trade-offs in carbon-based catalyst design

ASA. Sofia G.G. SantosVFVictor F. FerreiraCOCarla A. Orge

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the environmental impact of different synthesis methods for macrostructured catalysts used in water purification.
  • Conducted a life cycle assessment (LCA) of macrostructured catalysts for water treatment.
  • Compared different synthesis routes.
  • Applied a Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design framework.
  • Produced insights into environmental trade-offs associated with the synthesis of carbon-based catalysts.
  • Identified more sustainable synthesis methods for water purification applications.

Abstract

The first integrated LCA of macrostructured catalysts for water treatment, comparing synthesis routes within a Safe-and-Sustainable-by-Design framework.
