What is she best known for?
The fields of study she is best known for:
- Ecology
- Agriculture
- Sustainability
Life-cycle assessment, Environmental impact assessment, Environmental engineering, Waste management and Biomass are her primary areas of study. Her study in Life-cycle assessment is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Greenhouse, Compost, Agriculture, Municipal solid waste and Biodegradable waste. Her Environmental impact assessment research incorporates elements of Sustainability, Urban planning and Environmental planning.
The Environmental engineering study combines topics in areas such as Rainwater tank, Rainwater harvesting and Flooding. In her study, which falls under the umbrella issue of Waste management, Waste disposal is strongly linked to Fertilizer. Her Bioenergy study in the realm of Biomass connects with subjects such as Energy source.
Her most cited work include:
- Roof selection for rainwater harvesting: quantity and quality assessments in Spain. (164 citations)
- Recovery of organic wastes in the Spanish wine industry. Technical, economic and environmental analyses of the composting process. (160 citations)
- Application challenges for the social Life Cycle Assessment of fertilizers within life cycle sustainability assessment (145 citations)
What are the main themes of her work throughout her whole career to date?
Her scientific interests lie mostly in Life-cycle assessment, Environmental impact assessment, Environmental engineering, Sustainability and Waste management. The various areas that Joan Rieradevall examines in her Life-cycle assessment study include Greenhouse, Agriculture, Urban agriculture, Environmental protection and Greenhouse gas. While the research belongs to areas of Environmental impact assessment, Joan Rieradevall spends her time largely on the problem of Industrial ecology, intersecting her research to questions surrounding Tertiary sector of the economy.
Her Environmental engineering study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Energy balance, Carbon footprint, Rainwater harvesting, Biomass and Biofuel. Her Sustainability study incorporates themes from Environmental planning, Environmental resource management, Ecodesign, Environmental economics and Civil engineering. Her Waste management research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Resource efficiency and Raw material.
