Company said a peer-reviewed life cycle assessment using real pilot production data found cultivated meat can match or beat conventional meat’s carbon footprint at industrial scale.
Czech biotechnology company, BeneMeat, and a university research team have published what they describe as one of the first life cycle assessments of cultivated meat based on primary production data rather than laboratory estimates.
BeneMeat and the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering at the Czech Technical University in Prague co-authored the study, published in The International Journal of Life Cycle Assessment. The research modeled an industrial plant designed for 400–600 kg of cultivated meat per day.
