Introduction

With the improvement of environmental awareness and further understanding of 1) the impact of production and consumption may be associated with the product right, people want to build Some methods to better understand and explain these effects. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is based on this purpose developed technology one. LCA can be used to help. --- Identification improve all phases of the product life cycle environmental performance of opportunity; --- To industrial, governmental or non-governmental organizations in the decision-makers to provide information (for example, strategic planning, to determine the priorities for the product or process Design or re-design purposes); --- Select parameters related to environmental performance, including measurement techniques; --- Marketing (such as the implementation of eco-labeling system, issued a statement or environmental release product declaration). GB/T 24044 standard LCA practitioners details the requirements to carry out the LCA. LCA stressed throughout from the acquisition of raw materials, production, use and end of life treatment, recycling and final disposal (ie, from cradle to grave) Environmental aspects of the product lifecycle and potential environmental impacts 2) (for example, resource use and waste environmental outcomes emissions). There are four phases in the LCA study. a) to determine the purpose and scope; b) inventory analysis; c) impact assessment; d) explanation. 1) this standard, the term "product" includes services. 2) "potential environmental impacts" is a relative expression, because it functional unit associated with the production system. Range LCA study (including system boundary and level of detail) depends on the object and the intended application research. Different purposes LCA, Its depth and breadth can be very different. Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) phase is the second phase of the LCA. It is the study of the system input and output data to establish Inventory process, including the process to meet the purpose of data collection. Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA) phase is the third phase of the LCA. LCIA aims to provide further information to help LCI results of the evaluation system of the product, in order to better understand the importance of their impact on the environment. LCA Life cycle interpretation is the last stage. According to the present stage of the purpose and scope as defined for LCI, or LCIA, Or both summary and discussion of the results, provide a basis for conclusions, recommendations, and decision making. In some cases, only be able to achieve a good purpose by LCA inventory analysis and interpretation. Commonly seen as a LCI study. This standard covers two types of research. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA studies) and life cycle inventory studies (LCI studies). LCI and LCA research studies similar to, but not including the LCIA phase. LCI and LCA research should study the LCI phase confused. In general, the information acquired from LCA or LCI Institute as part of other more comprehensive decision-making process to be applied. For different LCA or LCI study only if their background assumptions and conditions are the same, it is possible to compare the results. because This address these issues in this standard contains a number of requirements and recommendations to ensure transparency. LCA only environmental management techniques (such as risk assessment, environmental performance evaluation, environmental auditing, environmental impact assessment) in one, and it In all cases of non-it is the most suitable. LCA typically does not involve products in economic and social factors, but described in the standard of life Use and methodology cycle can be combined with these factors. The standards and other standards, are not intended to create non-tariff trade barriers or to increase or change an organization's legal liability.

1 Scope

This standard describes the life cycle assessment (LCA) principles and frameworks, including. a) to determine the purpose and scope of the LCA; b) life cycle inventory analysis (LCI) phase; c) Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA) phase; d) life cycle interpretation phase; e) LCA reports and identification of assessment; f) LCA limitations; g) the relationship between the various stages of LCA; h) the value of the selection and application of the optional elements of the condition. This standard covers life cycle assessment (LCA) studies and life cycle inventory (LCI) study, but detailing LCA technology, nor Various stages of LCA methodologies predetermined. LCA and LCI result of application should be taken into account in the definition of the purpose and scope, but the app itself is not covered by this standard range. This standard is not intended for contractual, regulatory, registration and certification.
