Life Cycle Assessment and Water Management-related Issues

Life Cycle Assessment is a scientific methodology to assess the environmental impact of a product or service system throughout its life cycle. This process begins with the extraction of raw materials; continues with the manufacture, distribution and use phases, ending with the treatment of waste products. \ nAll this information allows us to avoid the transfer of loads between phases of the life cycle impact categories or geographic regions environment. For example, reducing the amount of material for the manufacture of a product (ie, a washing machine, a car or a sewage treatment plant) while increasing energy consumption during use or consumption. \ n \ n
