For your mid-term report, you will work with your teammates in drafting the first two phases of your LCA. Specifically, phase 1 - goal & scope and phase 2 - Life Cycle Inventory (LCI).
Objectives
Gain expertise in defining a clear goal for an LCA
Agree with your team on the scope of the study
Provide preliminary estimates of material and energy flows for the study
Directions and Resources
Please refer to Modules 2 and 3 for detailed instructions and resources on how to prepare the first two phases on the LCA. In brief, you need to complete:
Phase 1. A goal.
Phase 1. A scope (9 items)
Phase 2. A Life Cycle Inventory (material and energy flows)
Note: Please make sure everyone in the team has clear assignments and that you meet regularly to discuss your project.
Assessment
A detailed rubric is provided in this assignment in the table below.
Academic Integrity
Collaborating, and completing the assignment with others, is expected. However, please make sure that you are contributing your fair share to the study.
Copying or reusing previous work is not permitted.
