Zeeshan Z.

I am an independent Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) and Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) consultant helping companies, researchers, and product teams develop clear, compliant, and defensible environmental assessments. My work focuses on practical LCA modeling using openLCA and ecoinvent, with results suitable for EPDs, comparative studies, and sustainability reporting, without adding unnecessary workload to internal teams. 🔹 What I Do - Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) ISO 14040 / 14044-compliant modeling (Cradle-to-Gate, Cradle-to-Grave) - Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) EN 15804-aligned LCAs for construction products and industrial materials - openLCA & ecoinvent Transparent system modeling, scenario analysis, and documentation - Comparative & Scenario Analysis Materials, energy mixes, end-of-life options, circularity strategies 🔹 Sectors & Product Types Construction materials (cement, concrete, aggregates, insulation) Energy systems (wind energy, hydrogen technologies) Chemical and powder-based products Industrial and process-based systems 🔹 Selected Project Experience 1. Wind Energy & Circular Economy - LCA of 2–3 MW horizontal-axis wind turbines, covering production, operation, maintenance, and end-of-life. - Comparative assessment of blade materials (glass fiber, carbon fiber, natural fibers) and recycling / EoL scenarios. - Research support on wind turbine blade decomposition and circularity using openLCA. 2. Chemical Products & EPD-Ready LCAs - LCAs for chemical powder products (12+ materials) using openLCA and ecoinvent. - Dataset validation, system modeling, and documentation suitable for EPD development. - Knowledge transfer and technical support for internal teams. 3. Construction Products & Insulation - LCA modeling for insulation products using openLCA and ecoinvent. - Support for product-level environmental claims and EPD preparation. 4. Energy & Hydrogen Systems - Comparative LCA of green vs. blue hydrogen production (functional unit: 1 ton H₂). - Impact categories including GWP, water use, toxicity, and resource scarcity. - Results supporting technology selection and sustainability strategy. 5. Industrial Process & Sustainability Analysis - Material flow and energy analysis for mineral processing and industrial plants. - Sustainability and non-financial reporting analysis aligned with CSRD, ESRS, and EU disclosure frameworks.
