Résumé

Sustainability assessment using a life-cycle approach is indispensable to contemporary bioprocess development. This assessment is particularly important for early-stage bioprocess development. As early-stage investigations of bioprocesses involve the evaluation of their ecological and socioeconomic effects, they can be adjusted more effectively and improved towards sustainability, thereby reducing environmental risk and production costs. Early-stage sustainability assessment is an important precautionary practice and, despite limited data, a unique opportunity to determine the primary impacts of bioprocess development. To this end, a simple and robust method was applied based on the standardized life-cycle sustainability assessment methodology and commercially available datasets. In our study, we elaborated on the yeast-based citric acid production process with
