The HE projects LITHOS, EXCEED and XTRACT are co-organizing a capacity-building webinar on April 29 at 13:00 CET focusing on “Sustainability Assessment, (Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Social Life Cycle Assessment (S-LCA) and Techno Economical Assessment (TEA) in mining and processing activities for critical raw materials (CRMs) production”.
The agenda includes the following topics:
- “Introduction to LCA of CRMs: the case of battery-grade lithium production”
presented by Dr. Georgios Bartzas, LITHOS project
- “Sustainable and Cost-Effective Lithium Extraction from Li-bearing hard rock ores: Process Simulation and Techno-Economic Analysis using SUPERPRO Designer”
presented by Associate Professor Dimitrios Ipsakis, EXCEED project
- “From Environmental Thinking to Social Insight: Introducing Social-LCA”
presented by Mrs. Antonia Papadaki, Researcher, XTRACT project
The webinar is open to undergraduate and graduate students, early-stage researchers, and professionals interested in enhancing their knowledge in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Social Life Cycle Assessment, and Techno Economical Assessment (ΤΕΑ) in Mining and Processing Activities for CRMs Production.
This joint initiative aims to communicate the scientific achievements of each project, while strengthening collaboration and knowledge exchange among projects working towards sustainable and responsible mining of critical raw materials.
If you are interested please register here by 26 April 2026!
The registered participants will receive an email with the Capacity Building Seminar’s Zoom link.
