A container terminal is a high energy demanding organization. Giving priority to the investments that have better impact on minimization of consumption prime concern management board Port Authority and terminals. This study presents tool for classification processes take place in port. The Relevant Use Energy (RUE) index described applied case study, Valencia, which main port Mediterranean traffic. Three different functional units been discussed assessment: Twenty-foot Equivalent Units...

Agricultural packaging has a direct impact on the environmental performance of food. The carbon footprint (CF) two most used systems for international transport by road fruit and vegetables is assessed compared. Corrugated cardboard boxes (CCB) polypropylene foldable (PPB) in different sizes are object this study. For reusable boxes, three scenarios considered regarding number uses each box (20, 50, 100 uses). Product CF ISO 14067:2018 standard applied, requirements 14026:2017 14044:2006 met...

Maritime transport is responsible for 13% of the Greenhouse Gases (GHG) emissions sector. Port authorities, terminals, shipping companies, and other stakeholders have joined efforts to improve this sector’s environmental performance. In Spain, Ministry Ecological Transition Demographic Challenge has developed a methodology assess carbon footprint. This been adapted ports applied processes under Authority Valencia’s umbrella achieving scopes 1, 2, 3. The results highlight that ship traffic,...

Circular economy (CE) has been identified as a key strategy to contribute sustainable development and the achievement of Sustainable Development Goals 2030 Agenda. In this context, organisations have started demand methods measure monitor their level circularity. To facilitate task, several CE tools developed in recent years, which automatically measure, track communicate circularity based on answers qualitative questions. particular, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs), engaged education,...

A common recommendation when designing for disassembly is to develop more modular products. The belief that an increase in modularity will systematically reduce the time required order disassemble product, reducing cost of process. This paper studies statistical relationship between these two concepts by comparing 15 different electrical Modularity and performance are assessed indicators each their correlation analyzed. results show aforementioned cannot be statistically proven and, some...

The aim of this work was to analyse consumers’ attitudes economic, environmental, and social information on shoe labels, in particular sustainable consumption, also examine the importance source information. Three steps were followed develop an appropriate method extracting, analysing, interpreting contained questionnaire used survey: Exploratory Factorial Analysis (EFA) evaluate reliability dimensionality questionnaire; a Cluster (CA) Variance (ANOVA) test ability identify different...

Estimating the duration of a project is important in management. The dependency structure matrix has been used to estimate projects, and it proven be useful especially complex for example with activity overlapping. This based on activities, their interrelationships permitted level overlap. However, these variables have uncertainty that generate project. methods global sensitivity analysis Morris Sobol' are this study identify key activities affect It shown adequate control significantly...
