CWC and PMMI Collaborate to Sponsor Life Cycle Assessment Framework
The Consortium for Waste Circularity (CWC) and PMMI, The Association for Packaging and Processing Technologies, announced their sponsorship of a University of Florida–led research initiative to develop a standardized Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) framework for evaluating the environmental performance of Regenerative Robust Gasification (RRG) at landfills and incinerators.
The two-year research and development effort is led by Dr. Bruce Welt, professor of Packaging Engineering, and Dr. Ziynet Boz, assistant professor Circular Foods and Packaging Systems at the University of Florida. The research is focused on creating a rigorous, ISO-aligned, site-specific LCA template. Once completed, the framework will enable municipalities and landfill operators to quantify greenhouse gas emissions, material recovery, and circular product outputs using a consistent, science-based methodology.
