Development of Chinese Materials Life Cycle Inventory Database
Life cycle assessment is the most efficient environmental management method to analyze the potential environmental impacts of activities across their life cycles. It needs a great deal of environmental loads data relative to specific levels of spatial and temporal differentiation or productivity level of different countries. The environmental loads of the main materials industries, such as iron and steel, building materials, nonferrous metal, were investigated under the support of some national research and development projects. The key concepts and models for life cycle inventory (LCI) are defined; the material flow balance model to quantify inputs and outputs of a production system is achieved based on the direct proportional model, and the aggregation method of LCI data is developed in terms of the identification and aggregation of the primary flow and the recursion algorithm; the database framework of LCI and dataset are developed. LCI database has about seventy LCI datasets with a total of more than one hundred thousand environmental loads, and each LCI dataset is an individual dataset, which include the public dataset of energy products and transportation, and materials dataset, such as iron and steel, non-ferrous materials, polymer products, building materials and solder materials.
