Biography
Dr. Anna Garfí is an internationally recognized expert in sustainability assessment, particularly life cycle assessment (LCA), as well as in low-tech and nature-based technologies for waste, water, and wastewater treatment, management, and resource recovery.
She obtained an MSc in Environmental Engineering from the University of Bologna (Italy) in 2005 and defended her PhD thesis at the same university in 2009. Following her PhD, she joined the Group of Environmental Engineering and Microbiology (GEMMA) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC). Since 2023, she has been an Associate Professor at UPC.
Currently, Dr. Anna Garfí leads the research line on the sustainability assessment of low-tech and nature-based technologies for the treatment, management, and resource recovery of waste, water, and wastewater, including the production of bioenergy and bio-based products. Her research focuses on advancing low-tech and nature-based technologies in the field of environmental engineering by considering technical, socio-economic, and environmental aspects.
Her research also addresses human development and international development cooperation, with a focus on applying sustainable, low-tech, and nature-based solutions in resource-constrained contexts.
