Parametric Environmental and Economic Assessment (LCA – TEA) of End-of-Life Pathways for Biodegradable Food Packaging
UMR SayFood, Université Paris Saclay, INRAE, AgroParisTechJob Description
Description
Context :
The transition towards a sustainable food system requires rethinking the packaging of perishable food products. These packages face a threefold challenge:
Technical performance: Ensuring the optimal protection and preservation of the food.
Eco-responsibility: Eliminating plastic pollution by guaranteeing an end-of-life stage with no environmental impact.
Economic viability: Maintaining a competitive production cost so as not to affect the final price of the food product.
Modified Atmosphere Packaging, or MAP, is a key technology for extending the shelf life of perishable foods and reducing food waste. However, designing sustainable MAP packaging represents a highly complex systemic challenge. Improving technical performance(physical/chemical) in order to guarantee barrier properties, has a direct impact on end-of-life management, which may compromise the system’s eco...
