Chemical Engineering and Biogeochemical Cycles
A Techno-Ecological Approach to Industry Sustainability
Abstract
Chemical sectors have a huge reliance on ecological systems, specifically biogeochemical cycles. This is because of the crucial role that biogeochemical cycles play in the provisioning of resources and dissipation of emissions. However, these natural cycles have been hugely disrupted because of anthropogenic activities, and sustainable growth of industrial activities requires inclusion of dependence on these natural cycles. The ecologically based life cycle analysis (Eco-LCA) model captures ...
