Life cycle assessment (LCA) was conducted to evaluate the environmental impacts and health risks associated with four thermochemical conversion technologies: incineration, gasification, pyrolytic liquefaction, hydrothermal liquefaction. Results revealed that all processes yielded positive net benefits (3.8–8.2 kg CO2-eq/kg AR reduction), liquefaction exhibiting lowest emissions (GWP-5.71 CO2-eq/kg). However, its widespread application has been hindered by process limitations, enhancing catalytic efficiency identified as a critical area for future research. Incineration ranked second in terms of remains most favorable method according existing studies. In contrast, gasification did not demonstrate significant advantages, primarily due high energy consumption required drying. Consequently, optimizing drying highlighted key focus research efforts. This study provided valuable insights safe disposal resource recovery antibiotic residue.
