Fostering global dialogue on sustainability: ARMS at ISIE2025
Representatives of SDU’s Center for Life Cycle Engineering at the 12th ISIE Conference
Project ARMS consortium partners from the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), Ciprian Cipman and Suiting Ding, represented our project at the 12th International Conference on Industrial Ecology (ISIE2025), held from July 1-4, 2025, at the National University of Singapore.
ARMS was actively present at ISIE2025, where Ciprian Cipman delivered a presentation on our latest work applying Safe and Sustainable by Design (SSbD) principles to the development of next-generation electrochemical energy storage devices. The SSbD framework can help researchers and industry integrate safety, life cycle thinking, and circularity into next-gen battery and supercapacitor development, ensuring responsible solutions from lab to market.
Our representatives were proud to contribute to the global dialogue on industrial ecology. The conference featured a wealth of inspiring presentations, engaging discussions, and valuable networking opportunities—both with long-standing collaborators and new connections.

The theme of the conference, Interconnectivity—recognizing mutual dependencies—highlighted the relationships between industry, society, governance, and the environment; the various scales of human settlements; and the circular material and political relations that are central to the worldview of industrial ecology. The event brought together professionals, academics, and students from around the world to share ideas, insights, innovations, and methods related to industrial ecology.
As the flagship conference on Industrial Ecology, ISIE2025 emphasized our interconnectedness and addressed the challenges facing the world today. The conference explored necessary changes to stay within planetary boundaries and discussed technical, behavioral, and organizational solutions to meet these challenges.
