LiSUM project, Erasmus Mundus External Cooperation Window

The fellowship is aimed to contribute in a research program at University of Nanjing, for both the purposes of teaching and research in the field of application of the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to civil/industrial process analysis and to input/output stream optimization aimed to environmental impact minimization, with particular attention to economic valuation of environmental damage. It is an original approach in its application, which may open new and important research horizons. The proposed methodology can be applied both to optimize industrial processes (for good or service production) and to analyze alternative scenarios for decision-making in environmental policy. . Furthermore, the fellowship is aimed to stimulate NJU staff’s interest in environmental issues, to encourage cultural and educational transformation of China and to improve the international cooperation between universities.
