The giant freshwater prawn (GFP), Macrobrachium rosenbergii has emerged as a significant crustacean in global aquaculture. A cradle-to-farm Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was used to assess the potential environmental impacts of GFP Malaysia. four main iterative farming phases involved were pond preparation, stocking, farming, and harvesting. impact categories chosen warming, terrestrial ecotoxici...

A Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) was undertaken to compare the potential environmental impacts associated with use of Recycled Concrete Aggregate (RCA) as a partial replacement natural aggregates in production Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA), those conventional Hot (HMA). The LCA conducted according ‘cradle-to-laid’ approach, including four pavement phases. Three percentages RCA for coarse WMA were conside...
