Due to sustainable development, international environmental regulations have been reinforced continuously. Especially, Kyoto protocol related to energy consumption affects to national production system seriously. Even if railroad is the most environmental- friendly transportation, it is necessary to improve its environment. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is a representative tool to evaluate the environment impacts of a product. In the EU's railroad companies, the recycling efficiency and the waste emissions of rolling stocks have improved considering their environment impacts with LCA from a design step. Also, the LCA system of Korean electric motor units has been developed to build an environmentally sound railroad as one of national transportation core technology R&D projects. Therefore, the introduction of LCA will be required to decrease environmental impacts released from rolling stocks in the future.

This paper analyses the environmental effect of 100kw PV system installed in Tibet using Life Cycle Assessment(LCA). Then, energy payback time(EPT) and life-cycle $CO_2$ emission rate are estimated based on life-cycle of the PV system. As a result of the estimation, 6 year of EPT and 20 g-C/kWh of $CO_2$ emission rate are obtained. In China, average $CO_2$ emission rate of fossil fuel power generation plant is 260 g-C/kWh. This shows that PV system would be very promising for global environmental issues. For advanced LCA, we need to collect detailed and various data about raw material of PV system.

Bimodal tram is a new public transportation to improve the existing traffic system. The purpose of this study was to investigate the environmental characteristics of the developed bimodal tram through its life cycle. The used tool was life cycle assessment (LCA), which could evaluate environmental loads quantitatively for a product. Based on bill of material (BOM), the environmental impacts of bimodal tram was calculated from manufacturing to operating phase. Among impact categories, photochemical oxidant creation potential (POCP) was the highest, which was resulted from the manufacturing and the combustion of CNG used as a fuel of bimodal tram. In the future, the application of LCA results can enhance increasingly the environment of bimodal tram as an environmental-friendly transportation.

Reducing the environmental impact in the construction industry is essential for a sustainable future, and life cycle assessment (LCA) should be effectively conducted to reduce the environmental impact. The construction industry is one of the fields that emits a large amount of Greenhouse Gas (GHG). It is also characterized by many material inputs and a one-off single production. Therefore, it took a lot of effort to evaluate all the input materials, and it was difficult to implement a detailed LCA. There is need to solve these problems and to establish a fair and reliable evaluation method. In order to solve this problem, it is proposed to establish a common rule for calculating environmental loads of buildings, such as carbon dioxide emissions. In addition, by effectively utilizing the Inventory Database for Environmental Analysis (IDEA) database, which is an inventory database developed in Japan. It can evaluate not only carbon dioxide but also various environmental substances, and analyze how the environmental impact is correlated with each building and its constituent materials. Furthermore, by analyzing the actual buildings of 83 projects, the differences in the tendency of building type and materiall was clarified. A database was constructed to help reduce the environmental impact during the early stages of construction project and for different types of buildings.

제품의 제조, 사용, 폐기 등 전과정에서 발생되는 환경부하를 평가하기 위해 국제표준화기구(ISO)에서 채택한 전과정평가(LCA)는 개별 제품뿐만 아니라 건축물이나 사회기반시설과 같은 복잡한 시스템으로 광범위하게 적용되고 있다. 하수처리수 재이용시설에 LCA를 도입하는 것은 수질오염물질의 처리뿐만 아니라 이와 관련한 다른 여러 활동의 상호 작용을 포함한 전체적인 시스템을 파악할 수 있게 된다. 본 연구는 전과정 평가기법을 적용하여 하수처리수 재이용시설에 대한 전과정 영향평가를 수행하였다. 전과정 영향평가의 결과, 수계생태독성이 88.3%로 가장 큰 환경부하를 가지는 것으로 나타났으며, 전과정에서 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 단계는 운영 및 유지관리단계로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 종합적인 환경부하를 정량화함으로서 환경정책 수립자에게 환경 개선의 기회를 규명할 수 있는 정보를 제공해 줄 수 있으며, 건설 초기단계에서 친환경적인 설계를 위한 의사결정시 판단자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.

본 연구는 서울시 오피스 건물을 대상으로 친환경 건축물 인증등급이 오피스의 가격과 비용에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 건축물들의 매매가격을 다중회귀 분석을 통해 규명하였다. 또한 친환경 인증등급이 높은 경우에 어느 정도의 환경부하비용이 저감되는지를 분석하기 위해 LCC(Life Cycle Cost) + LCA(Life Cycle Assessment) 분석을 실시하였다. 실증분석 결과, 친환경 인증등급이 높을수록 업무용 오피스 가격에 유의한 양의 영향을 준 것으로 나타났다. 또한 LCC 분석에서는, 친환경 인증등급을 높게 받은 건물이 그렇지 않은 건물보다 적은 생애비용이 드는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 친환경 인증등급을 높게 받은 오피스 건물이 그렇지 않은 건물보다 환경부하비용(LCA)이 적게 든다는 것을 확인하였다. LCC와 LCA를 통합한 TCA 분석에서는 친환경 인증등급을 높게 받은 건물이 그렇지 않은 건물보다 적은 사회적 총비용을 나타냈다.

In a competitive and globalized business environment, the need for the green products becomes stronger. To meet these trends, the environmental assessment besides delivery, cost and quality of products should be considered as an important factor in new product development phase. In this paper. a knowledge-based approximate life cycle assessment system (KALCAS) for the collaborative design environment is developed to assess the environmental impacts in context of product concept development. It aims at improving the environmental efficiency of the product using artificial neural networks consisting of high-level product attributes and LCA results. The overall framework of the collaborative environment including KALCAS is proposed. This architecture uses the CO environment to allow users on a wide variety of platforms to access the product data and other related information. It enables us to trade-off the evaluation results between the objectives of the product development including the approximate environmental assessment in the collaborative design environment.

International cooperation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is expected to provide a big crisis and a great opportunity at the same time for our industry that heavily consumes energy. To cope actively with the international environmental regulation, such as the Framework Convention on Climate Change, quantitative measurement of the volume of greenhouse gases emitted by various industries and quantitative prediction of the greenhouse gas emissions of the future are becoming more important than anything else at the national level. This study aims to propose the calculation process of carbon dioxide($CO_2$) emission for building in life cycle. This paper describes and compares 9 different tool for environmental load estimation with LCA. This study proposed the calculation process for quantitatively predicting and assessing $CO_2$ emissions during the life cycle of buildings based on the life cycle assessment(LCA). The life cycle steps of buildings were divided into the design/supervision, new construction, repair, renovation, use of operating energy in buildings, maintenance, and reconstruction stage in the life cycle inventory analysis and the method of assessing the environmental load in each stage was proposed.
