Abstract/
Summary |
Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) is becoming more and more important as a tool to evaluate the environmental impact of developed products. The role of LCA could be improved if it could be applied during the development process of new products. In order to achieve this target, an important issue to be faced is the data acquisition phase required to compile the Life-Cycle Inventory (LCI). The objective of our work is the classification of the different types of data required to compile LCIs and the definition of suitable methods to identify and extract the required data from the data bases used by the Product Life-cycle Management (PLM) systems. To demonstrate, verify, and evaluate the proposed approach, the first results obtained with a prototype system for data acquisition are presented and discussed. |
