How to do LCA
Methodology
System Boundaries-ISO14040
-System boundaries determine which unit
processes shall be included within the LCA.
-The selection of inputs and outputs, the level of
aggregation within a data category, and the
modeling of the system shall be consistent with
the goal of the study.
-The criteria used in establishing the system
boundaries shall be identified and justified in the
scope of the study.

Methodology
Allocation
CO2
Cu Ore Cu
Cu Production
H2SO4
Energy Smelting
Mud
H2SO4 and/or Mud is useful or not.
If useful, CO2 is allocated depending
on weight or cost.
How to do LCA
Methodology
Allocation-ISO14040
Allocation procedures are needed when
dealing with systems involving multiple
products (e.g.multiple products petroleum
refining).
The materials and energy flows as well as
associated environmental releases shall be
allocated to the different products according
to clearly stated procedures which shall be
documented and justified.
Allocation based on Weight
How to do LCA
- same environmental load for each product -
CO2: C kg
Product A: A kg
CO2emission=C・A/(A+B)
→for 1kg; C/(A+B)kg-CO2/kg-A
Product B: B kg
CO2emission=C・B/(A+B)
→for 1kg C/(A+B)kg-CO2/kg-B

Cut-off (rule)
When and why cut-off is done?
The process is unnecessary from the purpose of the
LCA case study
The process is not important in the target product
system
When the measurement technique is not existed, or
data collection is extremely difficult because of the
system is complicated
How to do LCA
Example of the cut-off rule (thinking)
① Weight
The material or component less than 0.1 % of the
total weight
② Energy
The process less than 0.1 % of the total electricity
consumption
③ Environmental load
The process less than 0.1 % of the total CO2
emission
