Carla Silva - Energy in Transports- Energy Management OUTLINE Industrial ecology and LCA Life cycle notion ISO norms steps Goal, boundaries, allocation, functional unit? What assessments to choose? Impact assessment calculation Softwares/databases Examples
Carla Silva - Energy in Transports- Energy Management Inputs/Outputs Sustainability “closed loop system where wastes can become inputs for new processes” “Industrial metabolism” study of material and energy flows through industrial systems. Energy Emissions Zero waste Impact
Carla Silva - Energy in Transports- Energy Management LCA – Life Cycle Analysis Methodology to assess environmental impacts associated with all the stages of a product's life from cradle-to-grave Raw material extraction Materials processing Manufacture Distribution Use Maintenance Disposal or recycling Steps as in ISO 14040:2006 and 14044:2006
Carla Silva - Energy in Transports- Energy Management Life Cycle – Goal and scope definition *defines what precisely is being studied and quantifies the service delivered by the product system, providing a reference to which the inputs and outputs can be related; important basis that enables the product to be compared and analyzed **used to partition the environmental load of a process when several products or functions share the same process mass and economic Functional unit* System boundaries; Assumptions and limitations; Allocation methods**; and Impact categories Cradle-to-Grave (CTG) Cradle-to-Gate (CTG) Cradle-to-Cradle (CTC) Gate-to-Gate (GTG) Well-to-Wheel (WTW)

Carla Silva - Energy in Transports- Energy Management Life Cycle – Inventory
Carla Silva - Energy in Transports- Energy Management Life Cycle – Impact Assessment Selection of impact categories, category indicators, and characterization models; Classification stage, where the inventory parameters are sorted and assigned to specific impact categories; Impact measurement, where the categorized LCI flows are characterized, using one of many possible LCIA methodologies, into common equivalence units that are then summed to provide an overall impact category total.
