Abstract
It is necessary to collect inventory data for life cycle assessment (LCA). The inventory data are lists of quantities of resource consumption and environmental loads. However,inventory data inclines toward the data of CO2, NOx and SOx emissions. Since no data about other pollutant emission exists, detailed environmental impact assessment is hardly conducted. In this study, four methods of introducing Pollutant Release and Transfer Register (PRTR) data to existing inventory data are proposed. As a result of this study, it would be possible to take into account new environmental loading for the LCI analysis. And the inventory data were compared using Life cycle Impact assessment Method based on Endpoint modeling (LIME).
