CO2 utilisation is gaining interest as a potential element towards sustainable economy. can be used feedstock in the synthesis of fuels, chemicals and polymers. This study presents prospective assessment carbon capture from hydrogen unit at refinery, where either stored, or partly stored utilised for polyols production. A methodology integrating technical, economic environmental models with uncertainty analysis to assess performance storage refinery. Results show that only 10% captured an...
Electric vehicles are a key technology for achieving significant reduction of greenhouse gas directly emitted by the fleet light duty vehicles. In past, production impacts alternative vehicle technologies have been widely assessed within life cycle assessment framework, with large uncertainties regarding fuel cell electric (FCEVs). FCEVs allow an almost double driving range single charge or refill tank and more than ten times fueling/charging rate compared to batteries. However, currently...
Calcium looping CO2 capture is a promising technology to reduce emissions from cement production. Coal has been seen as logical choice of fuel drive the calcium process coal already primary used produce cement. This study assesses impact using different fuels, namely coal, natural gas, woody biomass and mix (50% 25% animal meal), on environmental performance tail-end applied clinker production at plant in North-western Europe. Process modelling was determine fuels mass energy balance which...
The climate mitigation benefits of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) relative to internal combustion engine (ICEVs) are highly dependent on the carbon intensity electricity consumed during their production and use-phase. A consistent dynamic approach grid-mix regionalization BEV life-cycle assessments in Europe is therefore necessary offer accurate guidance consumers policy makers. To this end, we present ReDyFEV, a simple open-source software tool that can be used calculate attributional,...
Summary While life cycle assessment (LCA) is a tool often used to evaluate the environmental impacts of products and technologies, amount data required perform such studies make evaluation emerging technologies using conventional LCA approach challenging. The development paradox that inputs from comprehensive has greatest effect early in phase, yet an are generally lacking until it too late. Previous attempts formalize strategies for performing streamlined or screening LCAs were made late...
Abstract Electrification of transport is an important option to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Although many studies have analyzed emission implications electric vehicle charging, time‐specific effects charging are inadequately understood. Here, we combine climate protection scenarios for Europe the year 2050, detailed power system simulation at hourly time steps, and life cycle assessment electricity in order explore influence on emissions associated with representative days. We consider...
This work presents the results of a comparative life cycle assessment study for three CCS technologies applied to coal-fired power plant: post-combustion capture with MEA, post combustion AMP/PZ and cryogenic oxy-fuel. has been performed in context EDDiCCUT project, which aims develop an environmental due diligence framework assessing novel CCUS technologies. The research shows that there are no significant differences climate change potential (CCP) under study. In cases reduction is about...
Abstract Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a method to evaluate the environmental impacts of technologies from cradle grave. However, LCAs are commonly defined in terms consumption single unit product and thus ignore scaling issues large‐scale deployment technologies. Such product‐level often do not consider capital manufacturing capacity supply chain bottlenecks that may hinder rapid, widespread uptake emerging entering market; require expansion existing chains or development entirely new...
Five scenarios for organic household waste treatment from the municipality of Trondheim were studied. Combustion and anaerobic digestion in three potential locations considered. The results show a negligible climate benefit biogas production these scenarios, although is much more pronounced other environmental impact categories such as photochemical oxidation (smog production) fossil resource depletion. A sensitivity analysis demonstrates strong dependence on assumed values lower heating...
Abstract The general focus in environmental evaluation of offshore drilling is the discharge cuttings and chemicals to local marine environment, some cases including emissions air from turbines engines. However, significant impacts occur as a result processes upstream downstream operations, manufacture materials, supply transport treatment wastes. Life-cycle assessment (LCA) structuring, aggregation cradle-to-grave scope. We present an LCA model developed through series case studies for...
