ProScale Suite Training @ SSbD26: From Concepts to Hands-On Web tool Testing
ProScale equips Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) practitioners with a way to integrate hazard and exposure data into environmental assessments. It draws on regulatory data to highlight chemical impact potentials across every stage of a product’s life cycle. Whether you are already using ProScale or discovering it for the first time at this SSbD26 side event, you will gain actionable insights and practical tools for incorporating these updates into your LCA, chemical footprint and SSbD practice.
This ProScale training session will give participants both a clear conceptual overview and hands-on experience with the ProScale Suite. The session will focus on two key elements:
- Understanding the core concepts behind the ProScale Suite modules,
- Exploring the ProScale web tool through interactive testing, including impact potential indicators for direct and indirect human health as well as ecotoxicity.
Join us for a chance to get familiar with ProScale’s key features, test them in practice, and provide valuable input for future web tool updates.
A light lunch is served during the training.
Speakers
Tomas Rydberg is a senior LCA- and SSbD Expert with M.Sc. in chemical engineering and PhD in Environmental Science. He has overarching responsibility at IVL for ProScale development since the initiation in 2016, supporting the team with profound experience from LCA including impact assessment modeling.
Pernilla Magnevill is an expert in Safe and Sustainable Chemistry at IVL. She has a background in chemical engineering and industrial ecology. Her current work mostly focuses on LCA, specifically chemical footprinting, and SSbD. She has been involved in the development of ProScale methodology and web tool since 2024.
