Abstract

Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a systematic method to quantify the material and resource inputs to and environmental outputs from a product, process, system while accounting for the use phase, the supply chain and end-of-life. We are applying LCA to a variety of asset management strategies within the urban water sector to ensure the industry is selecting sustainable and efficient strategies for addressing energy efficiency, resource recovery, greenhouse gas (GHG) abatement, and conservation, among others. Currently, we are addressing asset management, specifically focusing on pressure management and environmental abatement costs (EAC) for GHGs for urban water systems. Additionally, work on biosolids disposal is discussed briefly.
LCAs are being conducted by the U4 team in partnership with other ReNUWIt and affiliated projects. LCA work has actively begun, though results are not yet available, on the following projects: E1.1, E1.4 E1.8, E2.2, E2.4 and E3.3a. More information on these projects can be found on their specific posters.
