Impact World+ A New Method For Life Cycle Assessment

Impact World+ A New Method For Life Cycle Assessment AbstractWith the IMPACT WORLD+ life cycle impact assessment methodology, the impact of a facility’s life can be analysed. All midpoint scores are expressed in units of substance and refer to twenty-one damage categories. The distinctive feature of this method is its regionalized nature covering the whole world, which distinguishes it from other methods that deal with selected geographical regions. The IMPACT WOLRD+ method, like other methods, emphasises which factors have a high impact on human health and which factors have a negligible share. The new method also introduced new indicators that were not included in other methods. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Quality Production Improvement - QPI de Gruyter

Abstract

AbstractWith the IMPACT WORLD+ life cycle impact assessment methodology, the impact of a facility’s life can be analysed. All midpoint scores are expressed in units of substance and refer to twenty-one damage categories. The distinctive feature of this method is its regionalized nature covering the whole world, which distinguishes it from other methods that deal with selected geographical regions. The IMPACT WOLRD+ method, like other methods, emphasises which factors have a high impact on human health and which factors have a negligible share. The new method also introduced new indicators that were not included in other methods.
