Introducing Our Keynote Speakers: Almudena Hospido – Universidad de Santiago de Compostela Get ready for an insightful session with Almudena Hospido, an expert in life cycle assessment and sustainability, as one of our keynote speakers! Almudena is a full professor full Professor and member of CRETUS, Cross-disciplinary Research in Environmental Technologies at the Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, specializing in life cycle-based decision-making tools for various sectors. Almudena will highlight the importance of life cycle-based tools in shaping the future of resource recovery, with a focus on prospective LCA for evaluating emerging technologies. She will discuss how combining LCA with material flow analysis (MFA) can address data gaps, uncertainty, and competition effects. Additionally, she will present several European initiatives working to harmonize metrics for high-quality, industrially relevant assessments, particularly in carbon recycling. We can’t wait to hear Almudena’s insightful perspective at the IWARR 2025! Co-hosted by Wetsus, European Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Water Technology, Wageningen University & Research, and Delft University of Technology. #IWA, #YWP, #resourcerecovery, #waterinnovation, #sustainability
