Offer Description
The project will start with an analysis of the availability of excavation waste and mine tailings, with the purpose of simulating lunar regolith, with the aim of providing the supply chain framework for further sustainability assessment. Mineralogical characterization of selected raw materials will be first of all performed, and cementitious mix-designs, incorporating them and in case hydrogel, with a rheology targeted to additive manufacturing applications, will be formulated, to be validated in the framework of the Advanced Materials Additive Manufacturing Lab. Mixes will be characterized from the mechanical and durability point of view, also as a function of the printing process, to garner information to be employed in the framework of the sustainability assessment, performed through suitable software, encompassing engineering performance indicators, embodied carbon footprint and other environmental impact indicators as recommended in current international standards on the topic.
