A framework of disruptive sustainable innovation: an example of the Finnish food system
(Taylor & Francis, 26.11.2018)Disruptive innovations are perceived necessary for accelerating sustainability transitions. However, it is not always clear what exactly is meant by it, what is to be disrupted, and by whom. Socio-technical transition ... -
A life cycle environmental sustainability analysis of microbial protein production via power-to-food approaches
(Springer, 21.09.2020)Purpose Renewable energy produced from wind turbines and solar photovoltaics (PV) has rapidly increased its share in global energy markets. At the same time, interest in producing hydrocarbons via power-to-X (PtX) ... -
Business strategies for managing legislative requirements: A case study of legislative sustainability requirements for biofuels in the EU
(Inderscience Publishers, 2018)Businesses employ different strategies to manage legislative requirements; however, there is little science-based understanding of the strategies that are in use. This study introduces a general legislation maturity model ... -
Carbon footprint evaluation of biofertilizers
(WIT Press, 2018)The prevailing large-scale use of chemical fertilizers has been affecting environmental degradation. a broken nutrient cycle has caused problems worldwide, which are related to the question of how to feed 9 billion people ... -
Carbon Handprint
(Springer, Cham, 13.05.2020)A carbon handprint is a new approach developed to quantify the positive climate impact of products and services. In contrast to carbon footprint, which refers to negative global warming potential as a consequence of ... -
Contribution of honeybees towards the net environmental benefits of food
(Elsevier, 03.12.2020)Beekeeping provides honey, protein-containing drone broods and pollen, and yield-increasing pollination services. This study tested the hypothesis that beekeeping can result in net-positive impacts, if pollination services ... -
Environmental Impact Assessment
(Springer, 04.06.2020)The premises of environmental impact assessment (EIA) lie in the Earth’s limited environmental carrying capacity (Mebratu 1998; Meadows et al. 2005; Rockström et al. 2009; Steffen et al. 2015), the concept of sustainable ... -
Environmental Impacts and Sustainability of Low-Value Roach Fish When Used as Food
(Elsevier, 10.12.2018)One of the major global environmental challenges is the overuse of nutrients and related eutrophication problems. Specifically in Finland, the roach fish population is rapidly increasing in eutrophic water systems. Currently ... -
Environmental sustainability assessment from planetary boundaries perspective – A case study of an organic sheep farm in Finland
(Elsevier, 08.06.2019)Food production processes may have both positive and negative environmental sustainability impacts. This makes decision-making challenging in the transition towards more sustainable food production systems. In this paper, ... -
Evaluation of methods for estimating energy performance of biogas production
(Elsevier, 2014)This study focused on identifying various system boundaries and evaluating methods of estimating energy performance of biogas production. First, the output-input ratio method used for evaluating energy performance from the ... -

(Elsevier, 2014)This study focused on identifying various system boundaries and evaluating methods of estimating energy performance of biogas production. First, the output-input ratio method used for evaluating energy performance from the ... -
Greenhouse gas reduction potential by producing electricity from biogas engine wate heat using organic Rankine cycle
(Elsevier, 2016)Organic Rankine cycles have been identified as a suitable technological option for converting low-grade heat into electricity with relatively high efficiency, and the organic Rankine cycle technology has been successfully ... -
Increasing positive climate impact by combining anti‐consumption and consumption changes with impact investing
(Wiley, 27.08.2020)Household consumption leads to global warming potential impacts, for example, via energy consumption, production processes, and transportation. About 72% of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are related to household ... -
Life Cycle Assessment
(Springer, Cham, 24.05.2020)Life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology is a standardized method for assessing the potential environmental impact of a product or service throughout its lifetime (ISO 14040). As such, it represents a valuable tool by which ... -
Meta-analysis of climate impact reduction potential of hydrogen usage in 9 Power-to-X pathways
(Elsevier, 03.02.2024)Owing to the ongoing energy crisis, increasing shares of renewables, and climate mitigation targets, a green hydrogen economy through water electrolysis has gained interest. Hydrogen can be directly utilised or converted ... -
Neutralizing global warming impacts of crop production using biochar from side flows and buffer zones: A case study of oat production in the boreal climate zone
(Elsevier, 16.04.2019)Rapid climate change mitigation requires carbon sequestration in addition to greenhouse gas emission reductions. Agriculture may have a high potential for carbon sequestration due to improved practices. However, it is not ... -
Regional material flow tools to promote circular economy
(Elsevier, 29.06.2019)Although the concept of circular economy is gaining increasing attention, there is a lack of tools or any agreed methodology for evaluating circularity. To date, circularity has been assessed mainly at product level, but ... -
Sustainability criteria and indicators of bioenergy systems from steering, research and Finnish bioenergy business operators’ perspectives
(Elsevier, 2016)This paper addresses the interface of steering, research, and business operators’ perspectives to bioenergy sustainability. Although bioenergy business operators are essential for sustainable development of bioenergy systems ...
