The result consists of advanced methodologies for the logistics modeling and sustainability assessment of biomass supply chains, including forest, agricultural, and industrial sources. Specifically, it leverages knowledge in thermochemical processes—pyrolysis and gasification—to transform organic waste into energy and biogenic materials. The samples provided are a direct result of this work, representing the integration of these thermochemical by-products with the research group's expertise in materials science. This scientific base allows for the development of advanced ceramic materials and the decarbonization of intensive industrial thermal processes.
