Abstract

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to evaluate the environmental risks of the worn-water discharges of an Algerian tannery.Design/methodology/approachIt consists of a proposal for a combined methods based on the simultaneous use of the environmental structured analysis and design techniques and environmental failure mode and effect analysis (EFMEA).FindingsIn the contribution, the authors insist on the complementarity between these two methods to the identification and measurement of the environmental parameters of an Algerian tannery. The identified environmental impacts were prioritized on the environmental priority number combined with the improvement possibility (F).Research limitations/implicationsThe contribution makes it possible to deduce the environmental aspects and, consequently, to emphasize the contribution of the environmental risk assessment on the environmental performance evaluation.Practical implicationsThe contribution constitutes an invaluable help to the implementation of environmental performance evaluation process.Originality/valueThe employing coupled structured analysis and technical design and EFMEA methods have remarkably reduced the significance of the environmental impacts of an Algerian tannery.
