About
Nature-based Solutions and Sustainable Materials for Coastal Protection – CETIM’s Expertise
CETIM offers advanced capabilities in the development and assessment of nature-based solutions and sustainable materials aimed at enhancing coastal protection:
-
Aquifer Recharge: Strategies to manage saltwater intrusion and enhance CO₂ capture in coastal areas, leveraging innovative approaches for integrated water management.
-
Floodable Gardens: Design and implementation of stormwater management solutions, integrating nature-based infrastructure to mitigate flood risks and improve urban resilience.
-
Bio-based Coatings and Materials: Development of sustainable coatings for coastal infrastructure, enhancing durability against erosion and saline environments through bio-based innovations.
Sustainability and Impact Assessment
CETIM provides comprehensive environmental, economic, and social sustainability assessments of climate adaptation solutions through:
-
Life Cycle Approaches: Application of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Life Cycle Costing (LCC), and Social Life Cycle Assessment (s-LCA) to ensure the long-term feasibility and holistic impact evaluation of proposed measures.
-
Footprint and Certification Tools: Expertise in Carbon Footprint, Water Footprint, and Environmental Product Declarations to quantify and improve sustainability performance.
Proven Track Record
CETIM’s capabilities are reinforced by extensive experience gained in projects such as NICE-H2020, which provided advanced methodologies and best practices in nature-based solutions, LCA, LCC, and s-LCA. This ensures a solid foundation for the development and implementation of robust climate adaptation strategies.
