NEXT MEETING

March 24, 2016

Elsa Olivetti
MIT, Thomas Lord Assistant Professor of Materials Science & Engineering

Design of resource-effective materials, processes and systems

Global demand for materials is immense and rapidly growing: extraction and processing of materials counts for more than one-third of global carbon flows for human-related activities, on the order of 5.5 Gigatons/year. Direct materials production represents approximately 7% of total US energy consumption. This talk will describe the development of analytical and computational tools that consider the economic and environmental impacts of design, systems, and process choices relevant to materials use. The talk will specifically focus on a case of beneficial use of industrial byproducts in building materials.
