Life cycle assessment of polyols for polyurethane production using CO2 as feedstock: insights from an industrial case study†
Polyethercarbonate polyols from carbon dioxide (CO2) are starting to be synthesized on industrial scale. These polyols can be further processed into polyurethanes enabling CO2 to be utilized in large amounts. Utilization of CO2 as alternative carbon feedstock for polyols is motivated from the potential to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and fossil resource depletion. This article presents...
متن کاملLife Cycle Assessment of activated carbon production from coconut shells
Activated carbons have excellent performance in a number of process applications. In particular, they appear to have the most favourable characteristics for adsorption processes, thanks to their high porosity and large surface area. However, a comprehensive assessment of the environmental impacts of their manufacturing chain is still lacking. This study evaluates these impacts taking the specif...
متن کاملLife-cycle Assessment of Greenhouse Gas Emissions from Irrigated Maize: the Life-cycle Analysis
The life-cycle analysis of this multi-institutional project concentrated on determining the greenhouse gas emissions involved in pre-farm, on-farm and post-farm activities involved in the use of maize for the manufacture of corn chips. When the emissions are all expressed in terms of CO2-equivalents (CO2-e), then pre-farm emissions comprise about 5% of the life-cycle emissions, on-farm activiti...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
Evaluation of the environmental impact of broiler chicken production by industrial and traditional methods using the Life Cycle Assessment
Poultry meat with a high share in the food consumption is one of the most basic products for supplying protein to households. Due to the high amount of pollutants in this part, the environmental impact of the production of this product is necessary. In the present study, the environmental impact of broiler chicken production in both industrial and traditional breeding methods were evaluated ...
