About me
PhD, Lecturer in Industrial Ecology and Strategies for Sustainable Development.
He teaches in the field of Industrial Ecology (IE), with a particular focus on waste and resource management. His research interests include urban and socio-economic metabolism, material cycles and criticality, waste and resource management across diverse systems and scales. He primarily employs Material Flow Analysis (MFA) and environmental systems modelling as core methods in his research on water and the built environment, food systems, and transport sectors, complemented by a range of IE principles and methodologies, including Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Input–Output Analysis, integrated modelling, and other systematic approaches.
