Sustainable Industrial Systems is a research group at The University of Manchester led by Professor Adisa Azapagic.
The main aim of our research is to help identify sustainable solutions for industrial systems on a life cycle basis, taking into account economic, environmental and social aspects. We work across different sectors and supply chains including chemicals, construction, food & drink, energy and transport. In addition to industrial organisations, we collaborate with government, NGO and other organisations.
We specialise in the following areas:
Currently, the group has 29 researchers and is funded at the level of £8m, mainly by EPSRC, ESRC, NERC, The Carbon Trust and industry.
