A minimum service life of 1 years could be assumed, technical service life can be considerably longer. LCA: Calculation rules eclared The declared values in this module have to be multiplied with the assumed service life of the floor covering in the building considered. eclared unit eclared unit Conversion factor to 1 Mass reference 1.38 2,6 m2 /m² B3 - B7: The modules are not relevant and therefore not declared. C1 e-construction: e-construction of the floorcovering is made by handcraft and causes no additional impacts. System boundary Type of the EP: Cradle to grave Transport: Transport of the carpet waste to landfill, to the municipal waste incineration (MWI) or to the waste collection for recycling. System boundaries of the modules A, B, C, : A1-A3 Production: Energy supply and production of the basic material, auxiliary material, transport of the material to the manufacturing site, emissions, waste water treatment, packaging material and waste processing up to the landfill of residual waste (except radioactive waste). Credits for electricity and steam from the incineration of production waste are aggregated. Waste processing: -, -1: Landfill and waste incineration need no waste processing. -2: Collection of the carpet waste, waste processing (granulating). isposal -, -1: Impacts from landfill or from waste incineration (credits leave the system boundaries), -2: The processed carpet waste leaves the system and need no disposal. A4 Transport: Transport of the packed textile floorcovering from manufacturing gate to the place of installation. Installation: Installation of the textile floorcovering, production and transport of auxiliary material, waste processing up to the landfill of residual waste (except radioactive waste), the production of the amount of carpet that occurs as installation waste incl. its transport to the place of installation. Credits for electricity and steam from the incineration of packaging and installation waste leave the product system. Recycling potential: -, -1: Energy credits from landfill and from waste incineration (processing with < 6 efficiency), -2: Transport from the reprocessing plant to the cement plant, substitution of material and fuel input in the cement kiln (substantial and energetic credits). Use: Indoor emissions during the use stage. ue to known VOC-decay curves of the product after the first year no product related VOC-emissions are relevant. Comparability Basically, a comparison or an evaluation of EP data is only possible if all the data sets to be compared were created according to EN 1584 and the building context, respectively the product-specific characteristics of performance, are taken into account. Maintenance: Cleaning of the textile floor covering for a period of 1 year: Vacuum cleaning electricity supply Wet cleaning electricity, water consumption, production of the cleaning agent, waste water treatment. 3 Environmental Product eclaration ege Highline 11 ecoline wt
LCA: Scenarios and additional technical information The following information refer to the declared modules and are the basis for calculations or can be used for further calculations. All indicated values refer to the declared functional unit. Reuse, recovery and/or recycling potentials (), relevant scenario information The recovery or recycling potentials due to the three end-of-life scenarios (module C) are indicated separately. Transport to the construction site (A4) Litres of fuel (truck, EURO -5 mix) Transport distance Capacity utilisation (including empty runs) Gross density of products transported 29.4 7 l/1km km 85 335 /m3 Recycling in the cement industry (scenario 2) The organic material of the carpet is used as secondary fuel in a cement kiln. It substitutes mainly lignite (62,7), hard coal (27,3) and petrol coke (1,). The inorganic material is substantially integrated in the cement clinker and substitutes original material input. Installation in the building () Auxiliary (adhesives).4 Material loss.23 Packaging and installation waste is considered to be incinerated in a municipal waste incineration plant. Maintenance () Maintenance cycle (wet cleaning) 1,5 1/year Maintenance cycle (vacuum cleaning) 28 1/year Water consumption (wet cleaning).3 m3 Cleaning agent (wet cleaning),6 Electricity consumption.314 kwh Further information on cleaning and maintenance see www.egecarpets.com End of Life (C1-) Three different end-of-life scenarios are declared and the results are indicated separately in module C. Each scenario is calculated as a 1 scenario. Scenario : 1 landfill Scenario 1: 1 municipal waste incineration (MWI) Scenario 2: 1 recycling in the cement industry If combinations of these scenarios have to be calculated this should be done according to the following scheme: EOL-impact = x impact (Scenario ) + y impact (Scenario 1) + z impact (Scenario 2) Collected as mixed construction waste (scenario and 1) Collected separately (scenario 2) Landfilling (scenario ) Energy recovery (scenario 1) Energy recovery (scenario 2) Recycling (scenario 2) 4 1,6 1 Environmental Product eclaration ege Highline 11 ecoline wt
LCA: Results Information on not declared modules: The modules B3 - B7 are not relevant during the service life of the carpet and are therefore not declared. Module C1 causes no additional impact (see "LCA: Calculation rules", "C1 e-construction") and is therefore not declared. Module represents the transport for scenario, 1 and 2.
