Mineral resources in Life cycle assessment : new research developments and feedbacks from private and public stakeholders
Réseau EcoSD (France). Annual workshop (2020)
Versailles, Lyon 2ᵉ, Lyon 6ᵉ...
Ce que dit l'éditeurMineral resources have been used by humanity since ancient times. However, the diversity of resources used has drastically increased with the growth of high technology products, especially those in sectors dealing with the environment and the energy transition. Moreover, the overall amount of extracted resources is significantly high and only rising. Some of these resources are defined as « critical » by the European Union, as they are of great importance for these economic sectors and their supply is a growing concern. Although the environmental question of resource depletion has been widely debated within the life cycle assessment (LCA) scientific community, a clear consensus has not been reached. Combining resource depletion, resource dissipation and criticality in Life Cycle Assessment is therefore a key challenge that needs to be addressed to better assess the eco- design of future products in regard to the area of protection « Resources ». This book provides a synthesis of the main contributions presented during a workshop organized by the EcoSD network in 2020. This workshop was entitled « From depletion to resources criticity in LCA : what challenges for sustainable design ? » and aimed to address the issue of resources within the LCA framework. The workshop put in perspective the last methodological developments (in terms of both tools and methods) and the public and private stakeholder points of view through practical examples. The workshop addressed the following key issues :
Some 90 researchers from industry, academia and governmental institutions attended this EcoSD workshop. Their goal was that this workshop serve as a catalyst for the development of closer collaboration between research and industries. |
RésuméRecueil de contributions issues de l'atelier annuel du groupe EcoSD tenu en 2020, qui portait sur le spectre de l'épuisement des ressources et l'influence de cette idée sur la norme, débattue dans le milieu scientifique, du Life cycle assessment (LCA, ou analyse du cycle de vie). Le fil directeur des contributeurs est d'essayer d'articuler la norme LCA avec l'idée d'un design soutenable. ©Electre 2024 |
