چکیده
As shown in Fig. 1, LCI results with similar impact pathways (e.g. all elementary flows influencing stratospheric ozone concentrations) are grouped into impact categories at midpoint level, also called midpoint categories. A midpoint indicator characterizes the elementary flows and other environmental interventions that contribute to the same impact. The term 'midpoint' expresses the fact that this point is located somewhere on an intermediate position between the Abstract

متن کاملSustainability Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) Of Household Food Waste Management in Urban Areas
Background: Food waste is a very serious problem, it is proven that Indonesia is the second largest producer of food waste in the world. A limited waste management system will result in a decrease in environmental quality such as air pollution, water pollution, and soil pollution. So far, the waste management system is only limited to reducing waste generation. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a ...
