Estimating the life cycle impacts of dissipative flows of metals with MaTrace-dissipation

Session 15: Applying Systems Thinking to guide the transition towards a regenerative Circular Economy (1)
Dissipative flows of metals go against the common goal of a more circular economy by making metals inaccessible for future users. Dissipative losses of metals occur by intention as in-use dissipation and unintentionally through losses...

LCIA Characterization Factors for Mineral and Metal Resources: A Comprehensive Methodological Review

Characterization factors (CFs) are central elements of life cycle impact assessment (LCIA), translating elementary flows into potential environmental impacts. For mineral and metal resources, CFs are formulated using a wide range of variables and assumptions,...
