Life cycle assessment of building materials in hotel refurbishment projects: a case study in ankara
Çakmaklı, Ayşem Berrin; Elias Özkan, Soofia Tahira; Department of Architecture (2007)
Buildings generate millions of tons of greenhouse gases, toxic air emissions, water pollutants and solid wastes that contribute to negative environmental impacts. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a methodology for assessing the environmental performance of products over their life time. However, many building products are discarded much before the end of their service life, especially as a result of refurbishment and renovation projects. The need for such projects is increasing because most buildings are not ...
Life cycle assessment (LCA) of a LEED-certified green building using two different LCA tools
Aygenç, Merve; Dilek, Filiz Bengü; Department of Environmental Engineering (2019)
In this study, Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) tool was used for analyzing the environmental effects of the green buildings associated with one of the world-wide used Green Building Rating Systems (GBRS) called Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). The ultimate goal here is to contribute to the integration of LCA into LEED rating system. The secondary objectives were to execute several LCAs of both a hypothetical conventional building and an actual green building to compare the results of two di...
Life cycle assessment of evaporative recovery of mercerization wastewater
Bayar, Eda; Yetiş, Ülkü; Department of Environmental Engineering (2015)
The products of textile industry are irrevocable part of our lives: clothes, carpets, towels etc. However, textile industry is known to be having impact on the environment, especially for its high levels of water consumption and waste generation. The European Union’s Industrial Emissions Directive (former IPPC Directive) requires industrial establishments to apply best available techniques (BAT) both in the production processes and in the waste treatment and disposal. The European IPPC Bureau (EIPPCB) produ...
Life cycle assessment in ferrous foundry industry
Yiğit, Çisem; Dilek, Filiz Bengü; Karanfil, Tanju; Department of Environmental Engineering (2013)
Foundries are most widely facilities all around the world, producing high amounts of castings. In this study, environmental impact of metal foundries was investigated toward a life cycle assessment (LCA) goal. Studies were conducted in two foundry plants in order to collect the inventory data. The difference between the plants regarding their processes was the application of secondary sand reclamation (SSR) in Plant 2. Application of SSR is indicated as a ―best available technique-BAT‖ in the Reference Docu...
LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT OF MUNICIPAL SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT IN NORTH CYPRUS
Erhun, Melis; Akıntuğ, Bertuğ; Ünlü, Kahraman; Sustainable Environment and Energy Systems (2022-2)
Integrated solid waste management (ISWM) is used in order to sustain social and environmental quality within a city by using various treatment methods in parallel. On the other hand, in developing countries, solid waste management is one of the biggest challenges in the large cities. The increase in the population, thus the waste generation arises budget deficits for municipalities due to high management costs. The current waste disposal and management method applied in North Cyprus causes pollution to the ...
