The shortage of agricultural water from freshwater sources is a growing concern because the relatively large amounts needed to sustain food production for an increasing population. In this context, impact assessment methodology indispensable identification and potential consequences consumption in relation scarcity. This paper reports on consistent development midpoint endpoint characterisation factors (CFs) assessing these impacts. Midpoint focus specifically shortages resulting These were...
The social impacts of products and service life cycles are increasingly interest among policy makers stakeholders. Workers’ issues considered to be a source key inventory data assess impacts, crucial in moving towards sustainability. There is need develop database for evaluating services. This study aimed at the development intensity dataset using an input–output analysis framework. 2005 Asian International table used this work. Six considered: total employment, paid workers, vulnerable...
Paper can be reused to efficiently manage biomass consumption, meaning that it has potential as an environmentally friendly material. On the other hand, because of high energy usage during recycling process and transportation inefficiencies, there is a call for development technologies mitigate this environmental burden. This study evaluated, from lifecycle perspective, new technology collect recycle paper within office. reduce by over 90% amount water used compared with conventional...
Interest in the impacts of water use life cycle products and services are increasing among various stakeholders. The footprint is a tool to identify critical effective points for reducing impact through entire products, services, organizations. purpose this study was develop consumption inventory database that focused on identifying Asian using an input-output (IO) framework. An Asia International Input-Output table (AIIO) applied study. amount required agricultural estimated by modeling;...
All relevant effects on water must be assessed in footprinting for identifying hotspots and managing the impacts of products, processes, services throughout life cycle. Although several studies have focused physical scarcity degradation quality, relevance land use has not been widely addressed. Here, we aimed to verify extent land-use effect context footprinting. Intensity factors regarding loss freshwater availability are modeled by calculating balance at grid scale Japan. A footprint...
Abstract It is important to identify virtual water for crop production ( P vw ) and consumption C analyse the flow among regions a better understanding of resource use. The estimation in basin or between can contribute finding options water‐saving strategies, such as changing cropping pattern land objective this study was by using , content (VWC). VWC product amount fresh required produce product, expressed m 3 t − 1 . rate defined / which indicates extent shortage self‐sufficiency use...
물발자국은 제품과 서비스를 생산하는데 전과정 혹은 전체 공급망에서 사용된 담수의 양을 나타낸다. 물발자국 평가는 인간의 활동과 관련된 물의 희소성 및 오염과 정보를 파악하는데 보다 많은 주기 때문에 물소비관점에서 지속가능한 물관리에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 제도의 도입을 위해서 데이터베이스/물계정이 필수적인데 국내에서 전 산업부분에 적용할 있는 DB가 전무하다. 따라서 이 연구의 목적은 산업연관분석법을 이용해 국내의 403개 산업분야에 대한 인벤토리를 개발하는 것이다. 주요 연구결과로는 농업분야의 물사용량이 직접수의 79%를 차지하며, 공업분야는 간접수의 사용량이 82%로 주를 이루는 분석되었다. 물사용량은 벼가 가장 많지만, 다음은 수산양식과 과일 생산으로 조사되었고, 물사용강도(<TEX>$m^3$</TEX>/원)가 높은 것은 비식용작물(103,263 <TEX>$m^3$</TEX>/백만원)로 분석되었고, 이와 같은 결과는 비식용작물(초지생산등)의 직접수는 많지만...
Objective. Water Footprint (WF) can be expressed as total amount of water consumed through entire life cycle products. The principle and procedure for footprint have been discussed in the process making draft international standard. According to draft, various elementary flows like, quantity used, type resource, form use, geographical location withdrawal return flow are mentioned considered inventory. In particular, resource use not distinguished most existing LCI database. purpose this...
Objective. A Water Footprint (WF) can be expressed as the potential impacts calculated based on consumed amount of water or quality degraded through entire life cycle products/services/organizations. The principles, requirements and guidelines footprinting have been established an international standard. According to draft standard, various elementary flows such quantity used, type resource, appropriation, water, geographical location withdrawal return are required considered in a inventory....
All fungal polyketide synthase (PKS) genes so far cloned code for iterative type I PKSs that are different from bacterial modular and II PKSs. In order to clarify how control their reactions produce specific product compounds, such as Aspergillus terreus ATX, nidulans WA, Colletotrichum lagenarium PKS1, fumagatus Alb1p derivatives, were expressed under α-amylase promoter in heterologous host oryzae. Chemical identification of products confirmed functions gave some insights into controlled.
本研究の目的は国内の海水淡水化施設を対象にCO2や水消費、ライフサイクルコストを評価すること、さらに計画値と実測値を基に両者の差異を測定することである。評価の結果、環境負荷とコストは計画値よりも実測値の方が1m3あたりの負荷は大きいことがわかった。ライフサイクルCO2の大部分は電気に由来し、水消費では化学製品による間接的な負荷が全体に大きな影響(CO2:95 - 99%, 水消費:50 95%)を与えていることがわかった。これは沖縄における電気が石炭火力、福岡が天然ガスを用いた火力電力を用いている影響に由来し、水消費は逆浸透膜洗浄のための化学製品による影響に由来する。また、稼働率の低い(8%)沖縄における機能単位あたりの実測値のライフサイクルコストは計画値の5.5倍となることがわかった。最後に既存研究との比較及び感度分析の結果から本研究と既存研究との整合性が見られ、電源構成の変更によりCO2の削減が可能であることが示された。
Objective. Potential environmental impacts related to water has drawn much attention in recent year. The rapid increase of interests leads the publication international standard（ISO14046）on footprint at August, 2014. Many impact assessment methods applicable footprinting have been developed. However, targets and characteristics existing are various due diversity potential water. In addition, footprinting（water assessment）can be classified into four types（water scarcity footprint,...
