The last column of the indicator list contains a code, referring to the origin of the
process data, like the emissions, extracted resources and land-uses. In Chapter 5 of the
Manual for Designers we refer to this as the data collected under "Step 1".
Below the data sources are briefly described. In all cases the data has been entered
into LCA software (SimaPro) and then evaluated with the Eco-indicator 99 methodology.
1.
By far most data have been taken directly from rhe ESU-ETH database
Ökoinventare für Energiesysteme (Environmental data on energy systems), the
third edition, produced by ETH in Zürich. This very comprehensive database
includes capital goods (i.e. concrete for hydrodynamic dams and copper for the
distribution of electricity) and items like exploration drilling (exploration drilling) for
energy systems. Also for transport, capital goods and infrastructure (maintenance
and construction of roads, railways and harbours) are included. For material
production capital goods are not included. Finally it is important to note that land-
use is taken into account in all processes.
2.
The Swiss ministry of Environment (BUWAL) has developed a database on
packaging materials with the above-mentioned ESU-ETH database as the starting
point. However, in this database all capital goods are left out. For the Eco-
indicator 99 project we used the data on waste disposal and a few specific
packaging materials. For disposal data we made a number of recalculations to
include the "positive" effects from reusing material (recycling) or energy (waste
incineration). Next to this we used the [OECD 1997] compendium to generate
waste scenarios for municipal and household waste for Europe. An important
difference with the Eco-indicator 95 is that now we use European in stead of
Dutch scenario data. [BUWAL 250-1998]
3.
The European Plastics industry (APME) has collected state of the art data for
average environmental load for many plastics. As far as possible we used the
ESU-ETH version (see 1), as this combines the APME data with much better
detailed energy and transport data. The data marked with a 3 are thus the original
data, but as they use rather symplified energy and transport data, they can
deviate approximately 10% from the other indicators [APME/PWMI]
4.
Processing data has mostly been taken from the Eco-indicator 95 project. In
virtually all cases only the primary energy consumption has been taken into
account. Material loss and additional materials as lubricants are not included. It
should be noted that the energy consumption of a process is very much
determined by the type of equipment, the geometry of a product and the scale of
operation. Therefor we suggest to take these indicators only as a rough estimate
and to calculate more specific data by determining the exact energy consumption
in a particular case and to use the indicator for electricity consumption to find a
better value. Experience shows that mechanical processing contributes relatively
little to the environmental load over the lifecycle. This means the crude nature of
data does not really have to be a big problem. [Kemna 1982]
5. Data on alkyd paint production have been added on the basis of a somewhat
older study of AKZO.
6. The KLM environmental annual report was the basis for the data on air transport.
This data includes the handling of planes on the ground. [KLM 1999]
7. Data for recycling of plastics are taken from an extensive study of the Centre of
Energy Conversation and Clean Technology. [CE 1994]
