Open lectureSustainability and materials
On Monday 12 December 2022 from 15.00-16.30 (CET) Design School Kolding and Lifestyle and Design Cluster invite you to an open lecture by Luca Alessandrini. As PhD candidate, Luca Alessandrini will share the background for and insights from his ongoing project. With a point of departure in the concept ‘industrial symbioses’, he investigates the relationship between sustainability and materials to support circular resource streams and process paths.
In the lecture, Luca will elaborate on the overall methodology used in the project, bring in material-based case studies from all over the world, elaborate on Italian-based potential industrial symbioses based on existing waste resources and how to potentially be able to transfer this to other cultural and geographical areas.
What can you as company gain from participating?
As a company, you can for instance gain insights into potential new resource streams and get inspiration from case studies to explore possible new materials, processes or applications in relation to your company. After the event, it will be possible to continue dialogue with Luca on possible resources used or produced in your company.
What can you as student gain from participating?
As a student, you can for instance gain knowledge into how to build a bridge between research and industry, get valuable insights from case studies and become inspired on how to apply analytical and synthesis-driven methods.
