EU LIFE+ GLUELESS ProjectMy work aims to demonstrate that environmental impacts of absorbent hygiene products, such as diapers, can be reduced significantly with appropriate technological solutions while at the same time improving cost competitiveness. Within this project, we are carrying out life cycle assessment and life cycle costing to estimate the potential environmental and economic savings.More info at: http://www.sustainable-systems.org.uk/project.php?item=30
