Published:
Role: Sustainability Analysis Lead
Program: EU LIFE Programme
Project reference: LIFE22-ENV-IT-LIFE-GREENAPI; Grant Agreement 101114152
Partner: Angelini Pharma
Official project page: LIFE-GREENAPI
The project compares pharmaceutical synthesis routes, evaluates carbon hotspots, and develops environmental KPIs for greener drug development. The work covers solvent use, process energy, waste, transition from batch to flow chemistry, circular economy options, and machine-learning-supported API impact factors.
The project supported a PNAS publication on sustainable synthesis pathways for antiviral drugs through LCA and process modelling.
