As data bases used in LCA are relatively large, it is generally not easy to form an opinion on its structure. A method of analysis for LCA data bases was developed to gain insight in this structure.
With the proposed analysis, a number of empty processes and emissions were found. Also a number of identical processes have been traced. It is concluded that the method of analysis forms a first step of a technique for finding errors in LCA data bases. | | Keywords: data base management, LCA; data bases, analysis; LCA data bases, correlation technique; LCA, data bases; LCA, Life Cycle Assessment; LCI; Life Cycle Assessment, LCA; spy plot, data base |
