Trends and Issues of LCAs of Steel and other Key Materials
When selecting the key materials that go into building a vehicle, life cycle assessments (LCAs) are attracting attention as a means of assessing which materials have the smallest environmental impact. However, LCA analysis methods that factor in recycling are necessary because materials have different product units and repeated recycling can greatly reduce environmental impacts. This presentation covers the latest trends in this pressing area of research.
