Sustainable Industrial Systems Group

Quote

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:

  • Life Cycle Assessment (LCA)
  • Carbon Footprinting
  • Sustainable Production and Consumption
  • Sustainability Assessment
  • Sustainable Technologies
  • Sustainable Cities
  • Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
  • Multicriteria Decision Analysis (MCDA)

The group is funded by UK Research Councils, the European Commission and industry.
