3. 2. Does irrigation data matter in life cycle assessments?

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Centrum för miljö- och klimatvetenskap (CEC)

   Author : Olof Andersson; [2023]
   Keywords : Agent-Based Life cycle assessment; Arable grass rotation; Biofuel; Irrigation; Sensitivity analysis; Water footprint; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Biofuels are seen as a key substitute for fossil fuels and an essential tool for mitigating climate change. A sensitivity analysis was conducted on the AB-LCA (agent-based life cycle assessment) made by Raül López i Losada and his research team. READ MORE

4. 3. CAD-Integrated Life Cycle Assessment in Product Development : Evaluation in a Technical Development Context

   University essay from Jönköping University/Tekniska Högskolan

   Author : Petrus Hultgren; Pontus Smärgel; [2023]
   Keywords : Eco-design; life cycle assessment; computer aided design integrated life cycle assessment; product development; CAD-integrated LCA;

   Abstract : In order to reduce the environmental footprint of products, companies turn to Eco-design and associated tools. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a holistic and quantitative tool that is widely accepted in companies, but it is too extensive to apply in product development; as an alternative, simplified versions are more suitable.
