LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT
LCA will not determine which product or process is the
most cost effective or works the best.
The information developed in an LCA study should be used
as one component of a more comprehensive decision
process assessing the trade-offs with cost and
performance, e.g., Life Cycle Management.

LIFE CYCLE MANAGEMENT
Life Cycle Management (LCM) is the application of life
cycle thinking to modern business practice, with the aim to
manage the total life cycle of an organization’s product and
services toward more sustainable consumption and
production (Jensen and Remmen 2004).

LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT
• As environmental awareness increases, industries and
businesses are assessing how their activities affect the
environment.
• Many businesses have responded to this awareness by
providing “greener” products and using “greener”
processes
• Many companies have found it advantageous to explore
ways of moving beyond compliance using pollution
prevention strategies and environmental management
systems to improve their environmental performance.
One such tool is LCA ( Life Cycle Assessment )

LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT
A Technique that tries to identify, measure and characterize different potensial environmental impacts associates to each one of the stages of life cycle of a product.
A technique to assess the environmental aspects and potential impacts associated with a product, process, or service, by:
• Compiling an inventory of relevant energy and material inputs and environmental releases
• Evaluating the potential environmental impacts associated with identified inputs and releases
• Interpreting the results to help decision-makers make a more informed decision.

LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT
It encompasses all processes and environmental releases beginning with the extraction of raw materials and the production of energy used to create the product through the use and final disposition of the product.
When deciding between two or more alternatives, LCA can help decision-makers compare all major environmental impacts caused by products, processes, or services.
“Compilation and evaluation of the inputs, outputs and the potential environmental impacts of a product system
throughout its life cycle”
This establishes an environmental profile of the system!

BENEFITS OF LCA
Develop a systematic evaluation of the environmental consequences associated with a given product.
Analyze the environmental trade-offs associated with one or more specific products/processes to help gain stakeholder (state, community, etc.) acceptance for a planned action.
Quantify environmental releases to air, water, and land in relation to each life cycle stage and/or major contributing process.
Assist in identifying significant shifts in environmental impacts between life cycle stages and environmental media.
Assess the human and ecological effects of material consumption and environmental releases to the local community, region, and world.
Compare the health and ecological impacts between two or more rival products/processes or identify the impacts of a specific product or process.
Identify impacts to one or more specific environmental areas of concern

VARIANS OF LCA
Cradle-to-Grave :
Cradle-to-grave is the full Life Cycle Assessment from
resource extraction ('cradle') to use phase and
disposal phase ('grave').
Cradle-to-Gate :
Cradle-to-gate is an assessment of a partial product
lifecycle from resource extraction ( cradle) to the factory

VARIANS OF LCA
Cradle-to-Cradle :
a specific kind of cradle-to-grave assessment, where the
end-of-life disposal step for
the product is a recycling process. It is a method used to
minimize the environmental impact of products by
employing sustainable production, operation, and disposal
practices and aims to incorporate social responsibility into
product development

Wheel-to-Wheel :
the specific LCA used for transport fuels and vehicles. The
first stage, which incorporates the feed stock or fuel
production and processing and fuel delivery or energy
transmission, and is called the"upstream" stage, while the
stage that deals with vehicle operation itself is sometimes
called the "downstream"stage.
Ecology-based :
a methodology that quantitatively takes into account
regulating and supporting services during the life cycle of
economic goods and products.It was designed to provide a
guide to wise management of human activities by
understanding the direct and indirect impacts on ecological
resources and surrounding ecosystems

LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT SCHEME
Dalam suatu sistem industri terdapat input (material-material yang diambil dari lingkungan ) dan output (akan dibuang ke lingkungan kembali) akan memberikan dampak ke lingkungan
INPUT : Pengambilan material yang berlebihan akan menyebabkan semakin berkurangnya persediaan material
OUTPUT : hasil keluaran dari sistem industri yang bisa berupa limbah (padat, cair, udara) akan banyak memberi dampak negatif ke lingkungan
LCA berusaha untuk melakukan evaluasi untuk minimumkan pengambilan material dari lingkungan dan juga meminimumkan limbah industri.
LCA adalah untuk membandingkan semua kemungkinan kerusakan lingkungan yang dapat diakibatkan dari suatu produk maupun proses, agar dapat dipilih produk maupun proses yang mempunyai dampak paling minimum.

a. Alasan untuk melaksanakan LCA
b. Penentuan produk, proses, maupun pelayanan dari obyek yang diamati
c. Pemilihan unit fungsional dari produk
d. Penentuan pilihan tentang batasan sistem, termasuk batasan ruang maupun waktu.Batasan sistem menentukan unit proses mana yang tercakup dalam pembahasan LCAdan batasan tersebut harus mencerminkan tujuan dari pembahasan.

LCA of Lamps helps us make SMART decisions
Using LCA, the greatest environmental impact by far, is the
energy efficiency of the lamp, which supplants coal fired
power (largest source of climate change pollution).
CONCLUSION
The best environmental choice
is the lowest mercury, most
efficient, & longest life lamp.

1. Goal Definition and Scoping - contoh
Permasalahan pemilihan antara lampu pijar dengan fluorescent bulb dalam penerangan rumah tangga penghematan energi. Permasalahan lain yang muncul adalah fluorescent bulb tidak sepenuhnya ramah lingkungan (penggunaan raksa pada bohlam yang akan dilepas ke lingkungan ketika sudah tidak terpakai)
Pembakaran batubara merupakan penyumbang terbesar dalam lepasnya raksa ke atmosfer (lampu pijar memerlukan energi yang lebih besar penggunaan lampu pijar mengakibatkan lepasnya raksa yang lebih banyak ke udara daripada penggunaan fluorescent bulb ).
Banyaknya raksa terlepas tergantung pada batasan sistem yang dipilih
Sistem (pembahasan) yang lebih sempit memerlukan sedikit data dan analisis yang singkat, tetapi mungkin mengabaikan hal sebenarnya penting dalam sistem tersebut.

CO2 = 0.2 kg/t
CH4 = 0.1 kg/t
x1 = 2t/tFU
CO2 = 0.3 kg/t
CH4 = 0.1 kg/t
x2 = 1.5t/tFU
CO2 = 0.1kg/t
CH4 = 0.1kg/t

Using the Environmental Burdens equation the total environmental burdens per functional unit related to the emissions of CO2 and CH4 are therefore
BCO2 = ∑bcCO2 . xi = (0.2)2+(0.3)1.5+(0.1)1+(0.1)0.5 →BCO2 = 1.0 kg/tFU
BCH4 = ∑bcCH4 . xi = (0.1)2+(0.1)1.5+(0.1)1+(0.3)0.5 →BCH4 = 0.6 kg/tFU

The LCA process – 2. Inventory Analysis
Classification
– Involves the aggregation of environmental burdens into a smaller number of environmental impact categories to indicate their potential impacts on human and ecological health and the extent of resource depletion. The aggregation is done on the basis of the potential impacts of the burdens so that one burden can be associated with a number of impacts; eg Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) contribute to both global warming and ozone depletion. The approach used most widely for classification of the impacts is known as ‘problem oriented’, whereby the burdens are aggregated according to their relative contributions to the environmental effects they may have

Normalisation
– The impacts can be normalised with respect to the total emissions or extractions in a certain area over a given period of time. This can help to asses the extent to which an activity contributes to the regional or global environmental impacts. Should be interpreted with care due to lack of reliable data.

– A number of problems at philosophical and practical level in the realisation of this and there is no consensus on the best way to aggregate the environmental impacts into a single EI figure.
– Some people argue that valuation should not be carried out at all as it obscures information and that considering the impact in a disaggregated form enhances the transparency of the decision making based on LCA results
