The Airbus Lifecycle Services Centre (ALSC) unites Airbus and partners in Chengdu, China, to manage the entire aircraft lifecycle, aiming for recovery of up to 75% of stored aircraft at the facility.

Sustainability requirements are driving more companies to conduct LCAs to evaluate the environmental impact of their products and processes. Tools and research in this area continues to evolve.

The lifecycleValueCalculator is an example of how digitalization is supporting decarbonization for injection molding, extrusion and reaction process technologies by creating transparency about CO₂ emissions.

Facility will offer sustainable solutions to manage the entire lifecycle of aircraft, including maintenance, conversions, dismantling and recycling.

Novel digital framework to enable holistic and comprehensive data capture through the entire aircraft lifecycle, supporting composite component/structure manufacture optimization and maintenance.

Lifecycle assessment, starting at Toray’s Nijverdal site and then broadening to U.S. locations, will provide reliable emissions data to customers purchasing the range of thermoplastic composite materials.

CAMX 2023: Technical Fibre Products’ new nonwoven veil can be reused in composites, effectively closing the loop and providing a viable route for the recycling of fibers.

Cygnet Texkimp’s Multi Roll Stack and composite recycling technology catalyze ASCEND program’s mission to optimize aerospace, automotive hydrogen storage and CFRP sustainability.

Commercial production of recycled carbon fiber currently outpaces applications for it, but materials characterization and new technology demonstrations promise to close the gap.

A comprehensive lifecycle, cost and carbon emissions study on carbon fiber molds, produced for New York’s concrete Domino building, cites economic benefits over wood alternatives.
