PhDTalks | Material Flow Analysis and Life Cycle Assessment in Policy Making for Waste Management: the Case Study of Textile Waste in Lombardy

Gennaio 21 @ 17:00 - 18:30

Il prossimo appuntamento con la serie di incontri PhDTalks si terrà Martedì 21 gennaio nell’aula Fassò (Edificio 4A), dalle 17:15 alle 18:30 CET.

PhDTalks è una serie di seminari e discussioni tra dottorandi. Gli eventi hanno lo scopo di fornire un luogo dove creare un network tra dottorandi ed entrare in contatto con i molti progetti sviluppati nel nostro dipartimento.

Lo speaker Samuele Abagnato condurrà un seminario dal titolo “Material Flow Analysis and Life Cycle Assessment in Policy Making for Waste Management: the Case Study of Textile Waste in Lombardy. 

Al termine dell’evento sarà disponibile un piccolo rinfresco finanziato dal dipartimento.

Sarà possibile seguire la conferenza anche online al seguente link.

Abstract

Proper planning of waste management systems for textiles is crucial to reduce the environmental impacts of textile sector. To support policy-making in Lombardy region, first, a Material Flow Analysis (MFA) of the region’s textile waste streams was conducted, and municipal textile waste generation data of the Lombardy’s municipalities were analysed. Then, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology is applied to the textile waste management system of Lombardy region to quantify its environmental impacts and assess whether increased circularity leads to reduced impacts. The feasibility of applying LCA to textile waste management was explored in scientific literature, and the current state of recycling technologies is discussed. LCA was applied to the management of post-consumer textile waste in Lombardy, and some preliminary results are shown.

Speaker’s bio

Samuele obtained the master’s degree in environmental engineering at the University of Bologna in 2021, with a thesis about the application of life cycle assessment to carbon capture from flue gas. Then he spent one year as research fellow focusing on flue gas treatments for waste to energy plants. In 2022 he started his phd journey at Politecnico di Milano (38th cycle). His research project, in collaboration with Regione Lombardia, is focused on textile waste management in the context of Lombardy region, with the aim to develop analyses to support policy making and public policies at the regional scale about waste management.

In his free time, he loves playing (and watching) basketball, he is interested in culture and politics, and in a lot of other things that we do not have the time to list here.
