Produktinformationen zu „Environmental Life Cycle Assessment (PDF)“
From raw materials through materials processing, manufacture, distribution, use, and disposal or recycling, this self-learning textbook demonstrates how to conduct environmental assessments for products throughout their entire life cycles. The authors describe the inventory databases and methods used around the world, and detail various impact assessment methodologies for North America, Asia, and Europe. The text also includes case studies and exercises illustrating how LCA and ISO standards are applied in practice. It systematically covers goal and scope, life cycle inventory, impact assessment, and interpretation.

Olivier Jolliet is professor in life cycle impact and risk modeling at the Department of Environmental Health Sciences in the School of Public Health, University of Michigan. He is also one of the founders of Quantis-International, which provides life cycle assessment (LCA) expertise to companies and governments and is one of the two co-initiators of the UNEP-SETAC Life Cycle Initiative. Dr. Jolliet has been one of the pioneers in developing LCA and applying it to food sustainability and innovative technologies since the early 1990s, He has developed comprehensive Life Cycle Impact Assessment Methods, such as the IMPACT2002 method He has authored or coauthored 150 peer-reviewed publications and book chapters. Myriam Saadé-Sbeih earned her PhD in environmental sciences from the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, in 2011, after working for two years in the Life Cycle System group of Professor Jolliet at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne. She is currently a research fellow at the Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies in Geneva, Switzerland, and since 2012 has been the scientific coordinator of a research program on the transboundary Orontes River basin, funded by the Swiss Development and Cooperation Agency. Her research focuses on human-hydrosystem coevolution in uncertain contexts, especially in the Middle East.
Shanna Shaked is lecturer in the departments of Physics & Astronomy and Environmental Science at the University of California - Los Angeles, teaching LCA and physics. She serves on the UCLA Physical Sciences Undergraduate Education Committee to improve undergraduate teaching using evidence-based techniques. She earned her PhD in applied physics from the University of Michigan in 2011 after receiving her BS and BA in physics, astronomy, and mathematics from the University of Arizona in 2002. She received her MA in teaching from Ithaca College in 2013. She is passionate about
