“We are very pleased to have Kishore join our team,” says Mark Thimons, vice president of sustainability at the Steel Recycling Institute. “Kishore’s education and experience will help us achieve our aggressive plans for 2017 relative to documenting the sustainability advantages of steel in all markets.”
In his new role, Mahbubani will be involved in several projects, including the assessment of competitive materials, evaluation of recycling methodologies, life cycle assessment projects and the collection and aggregation of life cycle inventory data.
