| Technology description including background system | The life cycle analysis of the sewer pipe GFK includes the life cycle phases cradle to gate. The pipe manufactured in a centrifugal casting process consists mainly of the raw materials finely ground quartz sand, polyester resin and limestone powder. The system boundary is the finished product with different diameters and weights per serial meter (density 1,7-2,2g/cm3). Transports from the factory to the mounting location are not taken into account and have to be incorporated in a system approach. In module C1, a manual dismantling (no loads) is assumed, collecting losses are neglected. The transport in module C2 to the recycling plant takes place with a truck (50km). Module C3 takes into account the grinding and thermal treatment (combustion) of the material. When calculating combustion emissions and credits, the specific calorific value of each material and the material composition are taken into account. In module D credits for the substitution of electricity (German electricity mix) and thermal energy (from natural gas) are given. |
