C-05 Transport of wastes to landfill, incineration and recycling facilities – screening and simplified LCA
Aspect C-05 Transport of wastes to landfill, incineration and recycling facilities – screening and simplified LCA Description The transportation distances are likely to be different, depending on the EoL scenarios. For example, whereas a landfill facility is likely to be found in every city, a recycling plant may be far away as, for example, only…

D-02 Reuse – water consumption
Aspect D-02 Reuse – water consumption Description There are different quality levels of water – freshwater, rainwater, greywater and waste water. Depending on these quality levels water, can be used for different applications (e.g. rainwater for washing clothes). How and under what circumstances is it possible to obtain benefits from the reuse of water? related…

B- 19. “Operational Energy exported and on-site produced and allocation of environmental impacts”
Aspect B- 19. “Operational Energy exported and on-site produced and allocation of environmental impacts”In future, buildings will not only be energy- efficient, but also will produce energy on site in multiple ways. Description The energy produced at the building site may not only be consumed in the building, but also exported to the grid. For…
