Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is important as environmental problems become more critical. So. LCA is a method for assessing the cradle-to-grave environmental impacts of products. The algorism "ESS (Eco-Load Standardization Scheme)" as LCA method is proposed and the LCA software "MieLCA" based on. ESS is constructed. The MieLCA made possible evaluation of various industrial products rapidly and easily. As an example of industrial products, reduction of environmental load of vending machines which using reused parts has been evaluated with MieLCA. The results demonstrate that vending machines with reused parts reduce environmental load.
