This paper addresses the need for a globally regionalized method life cycle impact assessment (LCIA), integrating multiple state-of-the-art developments as well damages on water and carbon areas of concern within consistent LCIA framework. method, named IMPACT World+, is update 2002+, LUCAS, EDIP methods. first presents World+ novelties results then analyzes spatial variability each category. With we propose midpoint-damage framework with four distinct complementary viewpoints to present an...
Life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) is a lively field of research, and data models are continuously improved in terms pathways covered, reliability, spatial detail. However, many these advancements scattered throughout the scientific literature, making it difficult for practitioners to apply new models. Here, we present LC-IMPACT method that provides characterization factors at damage level 11 categories related three areas protection (human health, ecosystem quality, natural resources)....
This paper presents a novel life cycle impact assessment (LCIA) approach to derive spatially explicit soil sensitivity indicators for terrestrial acidification. global is compatible with subsequent damage assessment, making it possible consistently link the developed midpoint later endpoint along cause-effect chain-a prerequisite in LCIA. Four different chemical were preselected evaluate factors (SFs) regional receiving environments at scale, namely base cations aluminum ratio, calcium pH,...
This study evaluates the potential environmental benefits of using an electric over a conventional vehicle in province Québec, Canada; characterised with grid mix mostly based on hydroelectricity. To do so, we applied life cycle assessment approach whose results suggest that use should be promoted Québec but only if lifetime is optimised.
