| description | Nanomaterials have emerged as versatile components revolutionizing diverse industries, yet their environmental and health impacts remain insufficiently explored. This paper delves into the latent hazards accompanying their evolution and integration, particularly within the construction sector. It addresses the critical gap in assessing their life-cycle impacts, emphasizing the necessity of explicit reporting on nanoparticle emissions. Employing a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) approach, this research evaluates the sustainability of nanomaterial applications. The absence of nanoparticle-specific data in existing product databases underscores the need for comprehensive life-cycle emission reporting. Since direct impact calculations remain unfeasible, incorporating predicted emissions and risk assessments into LCA studies is recommended. This study advocates for incorporating nanoparticle risk evaluations into LCA methodologies to enhance sustainability and environmental safety. By prioritizing precise emission data and predictive risk analysis, it advances nanomaterial environmental assessments, contributing to the responsible implementation of nanomaterials in construction. |
