LCA prototype tool for graphene (GRALCA)
Research Project, 2023
– 2024
Purpose and goal
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** The project aims to help Swedish companies in the graphene value chains to make more informed strategic and operational decisions regarding the environmental performance of their products. The goal is to provide a prototype tool for life cycle assessment (LCA) where users can make indicative comparisons regarding primarily the climate impact between their and alternative products, based on relevant generic but as current as possible.
Expected results and effects
** Denna text är maskinöversatt ** It is expected that Swedish companies in the graph´s value chains make more conscious strategic and operational decisions regarding the environmental performance of their products. concretely, the result should lead to all participating companies having access to a calculation tool that is relevant to their activities, and that they have the necessary knowledge to be able to use it.
