Sustainability fundamentals and their application in aviation/aerospace. Environmental effects from aviation/aerospace operations. Aviation sustainability schemes and standards (ie ICAO CORSIA CERT tool, ISO 14001). Environmental risk assessment methods in aviation facilities; CSR and social sustainability for aviation. New technologies' impact in aviation sustainability.
Investigate sustainable operations of aviation and aerospace organizations. Analyze how the distinctive operations of aviation and aerospace organizations could move along with sustainability practices. Sustainable strategies must be a core element within aviation and aerospace organizations; the development of a sustainable strategy should consider the distinctive characteristics of the industry and the interactions among its stakeholders.
Examine the role of sustainability in airport operations. Assess schemes to reduce airport's environmental footprint, net zero emission schemes; energy efficiency plans, renewable energy technologies, noise performance evaluation, waste and water management programs. Techniques for airports as healthier facilities for employers, employees, users and the community; economic and social sustainability factors for airports.
The role of Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) in aviation; SAF's economic, social and environmental benefits to aviation industry and society; environmental assessment of SAF and conventional aviation fuels using life cycle assessment software tools; assess market trends and supply chain challenges; the role of SAF in carbon offsetting emission schemes.
Distinguish the applicable sustainability policies, regulations and initiatives for aviation operations. Assess the National and international agencies and their goals and schemes for emissions, operations, design and fuel use. International treaties, the Paris Agreement, Pathways to Net Zero initiatives, ICAO's sustainability guidance, and national and global sustainability schemes in aviation and aerospace.
Design and development of technologies that form the new, sustainable era of aviation. Electric Vehicles, Hydrogen fuel cells, Drones and Urban Air mobility vehicles, space operations and their role in aviation/aerospace sustainability are assessed, along with aerodynamic designs and structures for fuel-efficient aircraft with reduced noise and emissions generation.
Techniques and tools for sustainability in aviation and aerospace operations. Lean management, Six Sigma and ISO standards, sustainability guiding principles, risk management standards, and result-oriented quality tools are necessary for auditing processes of a sustainable system.
Aircraft decommissioning for aviation sustainability. Aircraft decommissioning stages, define spare parts that can be used in other aircraft, explore what can be reused in different industrial sectors, and what parts/materials can be recycled or end up as waste. Stages and processes of aircraft decommissioning. Assess environmental and social impacts of aircraft decommissioning and role in aviation's economic circularity.
Evaluate necessary components of aviation corporate sustainability management. Create and evaluate indicators measuring aviation and aerospace sustainability activities. Address factors that leadership in aviation organizations must consider in meeting sustainability goals. Creation of corporate sustainability strategies including investment tools for applying sustainability initiatives in the industry.
