2. Life cycle analysis applied to ELT recovery solutions
Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a method for evaluating the potential environmental impacts of a system (product, process or service) that performs one or more functions, throughout its life cycle.
The method is generally applied iteratively in four main phases:
objectives ;
inventory ;
impact analysis ;
interpretation.
For an overview of the method, its main strengths and weaknesses, please refer to the article Analyse du cycle de vie
