Life Cycle Assessment-based method of Excessive Commodity Packaging on Energy Conservation and Emissions Reduction ()
Abstract
Based on a Life Cycle Assessment model, the effect of
the whole life cycle of excessive commodity packaging on the environment was
analyzed by eBalance Evaluation LCA software from production through circulation.
The cost evaluation system and environment impact model of its three main
processes, that is, material production, product machining and waste manufacturing,
were established to identify the main environmental impact corresponding
indicators and the influence on energy conservation and emissions reduction of
excessive packaging life cycle. And packaging of moon-cakes was taken as an
example to analyze the difference between the ordinary packaging and excessive
packaging of moon-cakes in terms of life cycle assessment and costs analysis. Meanwhile
some measures are put forward to conserve energy and reduce emissions.
