Gregor Wernet,Christian Bauer,Bernhard Steubing,Bernhard Steubing,Jürgen Reinhard,Emilia Moreno-Ruiz,Bo Pedersen Weidema +6 more
TL;DR: With version 3, the ecoinvent database substantially expands the goals and scopes of LCA studies it can support, and the new system models allow new, different studies to be performed.

Life cycle assessment (LCA) of electricity generation technologies: Overview, comparability and limitations
TL;DR: In this paper, a critical review of 167 case studies involving the life cycle assessment (LCA) of electricity generation based on hard coal, lignite, natural gas, oil, nuclear, biomass, hydroelectric, solar photovoltaic (PV) and wind was carried out to identify ranges of emission data for GHG, NOx and SO2 related to individual technologies.

Review of LCA studies of solid waste management systems--part I: lessons learned and perspectives.
Alexis Laurent,Ioannis Bakas,Julie Clavreul,Anna Bernstad,Monia Niero,Emmanuel Gentil,Michael Zwicky Hauschild,Thomas Højlund Christensen +7 more
TL;DR: A critical review of 222 published LCA studies of SWMS found that there is little agreement in the conclusions among them and recommend stakeholders in solid waste management to regard LCA as a tool, which allows identifying critical problems and proposing improvement options adapted to the local specificities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Targets for a circular economy
TL;DR: In this paper, a framework based on 10 common circular economy strategies (i.e. recover, recycling, repurpose, remanufacture, refurbish, repair, reuse, reduce, rethink, refuse) is applied to scrutinise the selected targets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of LCA studies of solid waste management systems - Part II: Methodological guidance for a better practice.
Alexis Laurent,Julie Clavreul,Anna Bernstad,Ioannis Bakas,Monia Niero,Emmanuel Gentil,Thomas Højlund Christensen,Michael Zwicky Hauschild +7 more
TL;DR: Results show that malpractices exist in several aspects of the LCA with large differences across studies and detailed recommendations are provided to practitioners of waste management LCAs.
