14、lture have a long history of application, such as paper, board and various chemicals and materials. The last decades have seen the emergence of new bio-based products in the market. Some of the reasons for the increased interest lie in the bio-based products benefits in relation to the depletion of

15、fossil resources and climate change. Bio-based products may also provide additional product functionalities. This has triggered a wave of innovation with the development of knowledge and technologies allowing new transformation processes and product development. Acknowledging the need for common sta

16、ndards for bio-based products, the European Commission issued mandate M/492, resulting in a series of standards developed by CEN/TC 411, with a focus on bio-based products other than food, feed and biomass for energy applications. The standards of CEN/TC 411 “Bio-based products” provide a common bas

17、is on the following aspects: Common terminology; Bio-based content determination; Life Cycle Assessment (LCA); Sustainability aspects; Declaration tools. It is important to understand what the term bio-based product covers and how it is being used. The term bio-based means derived from biomass. Bio-

18、based products (bottles, insulation materials, wood and wood products, paper, solvents, chemical intermediates, composite materials, etc.) are products which are wholly or partly derived from biomass. It is essential to characterize the amount of biomass contained in the product by for instance its

19、bio-based content or bio-based carbon content. The bio-based content of a product does not provide information on its environmental impact or sustainability, which may be assessed through LCA and sustainability criteria. In addition, transparent and unambiguous communication within bio-based value c

20、hains is facilitated by a harmonized framework for certification and declaration. PD CEN/TR 16957:2016CEN/TR 16957:2016 (E) 5 1 Scope This Technical Report provides guidance on how to compile an inventory for the end-of-life phase in LCA of bio-based products.

Each end-of-life option has different environme

26、ntal impacts to be evaluated as part of the LCA. Life cycle inventory data (e.g. emissions to air, water and soil) related to the bio-based product end-of-life option depends on the type of treatment technology, processing conditions, the local infrastructure for collection (e.g. separate collection

27、 of biodegradable waste for composting), sorting and processing, the location (i.e. the contribution of for example the electricity used) and the physical-chemical characteristics of the disposed material such as the chemical composition and the biodegradation behaviour. The end of life options recy

28、cling (mechanical or organic) and chemical recovery can lead to secondary materials, and consequently saving primary materials, keeping the bio-based carbon fixed in the material or preserving nutrients. NOTE 1 Collection, transportation and sorting of the waste from bio-based products are considere

Regardless of the origin of the process module applied in the LCA study (generic modules from LCA databases, other public data, or modules developed by the practitioner of the LCA study), the parameters shown in Table 1 need to be define

30、d in order to reflect the material properties of the studied bio-based waste.

The quantity of energy contained in a material is generally expressed through the Low

34、er Heating Value (LHV). This parameter points out the maximum energy obtainable from the complete combustion of the material, without considering the heat of the water vapour generated by the combustion. The lower heating value of bio-based product waste can be measured according to EN 15359. LHV ca

The share of biodegradable carbon actually decomposed into inorganic components, along with, chemical compositi

38、ncy and enable comparability. This is especially relevant in case of cradle-to-grave studies, where those properties are of key importance to correctly model the end-of-life process along the value chain. Biogenic carbon content in any LCA study of bio-based products/materials should be documented.

39、Biogenic carbon emissions (carbon dioxide, methane), originating from decomposition or combustion, of bio-based material need to be documented separately from non-bio-based carbon emissions in order to allow a consistent biogenic carbon balance over the full lifecycle of a bio-based product. 4.3 Reu

40、se and/or preparation for reuse Reuse means any operation by which products or components that are not waste are used again for the same purpose for which they were conceived. Preparing for reuse means checking, cleaning or repairing recovery operations, by which products or components of products t

41、hat have become waste are prepared so that they can be reused without any other pre-processing. PD CEN/TR 16957:2016CEN/TR 16957:2016 (E) 9 Important aspects to consider in the LCA study are the energy use from transportation to collection and logistic points and the use of resources for the prepara

42、tion for reuse (e.g. water use, cleaning agents, energy, etc.). NOTE See also Annex C of ILCD Handbook 17. 4.4 Recycling 4.4.1 Mechanical recycling 4.4.1.1 General In mechanical recycling, waste material is reclaimed in order to enable use of the material in manufacture of a new product. During mech

43、anical recycling, waste for example is ground, cleaned and eventually recycled (e.g. for plastics recycled into flakes or pellets). The quality of the recycled materials differs depending on original material properties and recycling processes applied. This waste treatment pathway is open to bio-bas

44、ed materials. Prerequisite for a valuable mechanical recycling of bio-based material is (a source-separated) waste collection and subsequent sorting. Recycled bio-based material maintains the CO2fixed from the atmosphere during plant growth within the technical material cycle. This might be accounta

45、ble as a type of carbon sequestration. In such case bio-based carbon may therefore be considered as sequestered in the recycled bio-based material until the recycled material (after one or more recycling “loops”) ends up in a final treatment (incineration, composting or anaerobic digestion process).

A fundamental change in the molecular structure of the materials occurs. The process can be aerobic (with air) or anaerobic (without air). In the first case, which corresp
