Johan Berg Pettersen

About

I have for 20 years worked with application and development of life cycle assessment and life cycle engineering, in research and development for offshore energy systems, infrastructure engineering for rail and road transport, agriculture and aquaculture, space technology, metal processing and product manufacturing.

In these years I've been involved in business startup, innovation cluster development, and held adjunct positions at several universities in Norway.

My interests is what we call circular and life cycle engineering. How can we design and create an equitable, sustainable transition?

Successful transition depends on innovation in technology and organizations. It also means change in behaviour, culture and practice. To improve society we have to change it, and this is why my research divides between consumption and production systems.

I teach life cycle assessment, sustainable engineering and industrial ecology methods. I head studies in Energy and Sustainability at the Faculty of Engineering Science, and I am study program manager for MSc studies at Industrial Ecology Programme, including the International MSc in Industrial Ecology (MSINDECOL).

Research

Sustainable consumption and production is to "provide more and better with less. It is to increase utility and at the same time reduce environmental impacts, improve resource effectiveness, and promote more sustainable ways of living".

My research activity aims to evaluate and guide measures towards sustainable production and consumption. We make use of life cycle-based assessment methods to evaluate solutions at the level of technology or society. This can be called circular and life cycle engineering.

Within consumption we investigate household consumption of durable goods and possible ways to extend their lifetime, and how the waste management system for municipal solid waste needs to develop in a circular economy. This activity is together with Sintef Energy, and Consumption research Norway (SIFO).

Within production we work with sustainable metallurgy. We evaluate alternative metal process options for silicon, and waste valorization routes connected with metal and mineral wastes. This activity is a collaboration with the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and international partners, and for zero emission metal production in the FME ZeMe center.

We are part of the Industrial Ecology Programme, an interdisciplinary research programme specialized in environmental sustainability analysis.

Publications

Long-term lifetime trends of large appliances since the introduction in Norwegian households

Proof that there has been a shift in lifetime for some household appliances in the last few decades, and that some have stayed the same.

Incineration economy: Waste management policy failing the circular economy transition in Norway

How has recycling rate and life cycle environmental performance of household solid waste management in Norway changed from 2009 to 2019?

LCA of recycling aluminium in bottom ash, dross and shavings

Life cycle assessment of recovering hard-to-recycle aluminium waste/side-streams and two salt-slag management routes: valorisation or landfill.

Evaluating the current Norwegian clothing system and a circular alternative

Considering Norwegian households in 2018, we find that realizing in full consumer willingness to rent various garment types or buy them secondhand may reduce water, climate and energy demand by about 47-62%.

Life cycle assessment of pig iron production from bauxite residue

Simulation-based LCA shows that from bauxite residue (red mud) may in renewable energy scenarios reduce impacts on climate change, human health and ecosystem damages, at the cost of increased energy use compared to conventional production of pig iron.

Electronic Waste Treatment Flows in Norway: Investigating recycling rates and embodied emissions

We find that 68% of sorted WEEE sent to recycling treatments is recycled into reusable material, reduced to 58% if we include loss from the system. The recycling rate for precious metals is significant for the total CO2-eq footprint of WEEE EOL.

Circular economy and life cycle assessment of alumina production: Simulation-based comparison of Pedersen and Bayer processes

The Pedersen process is the simultaneous extraction of iron and alumina from bauxite ore. This study compares Pedersen with the conventional Bayer process, assessing a portfolio of life cycle impacts and resource indicators.

Teaching

Courses

I teach introduction to industrial ecology and sustainable engineering at undergraduate level, life cyle assessment as method and applied sustainability assessment in courses at graduate level.

The teaching in bachelor courses introduces concepts and methods for sustainability, sustainability assessment and sustainable engineering, climate mitigation and circular economy. It covers, at introduction level, material flow analysis, life cycle assessment, energy analysis, footprint methods and environmentally extended input-output analysis.

I teach the graduate course in life cycle assessment (LCA), and contribute lectures in master courses, on sustainability and environmental systems analysis applied to various engineering fields: marine resources, aquaculture, metal production, and process industry.

I am course administrator for the project (15 ECTS) and master thesis (30 ETCS) at the Industrial Ecology Programme.
