Abstract: | The aim of the study is to develop a framework of applying life cycle assessment to production policy. A case-study on corrugated paperboard manufacture is therefore implemented. The application framework comprises three components: the conventional life cycle assessment procedure, the analytical hierarchy process, and a multiobjective programming model. In the decision model for production policy adjustment the objectives of cost-effectiveness and environment-friendliness are incorporated. The environmental impacts are classified as categories of pollution and disturbance as well as space groups of global, regional and local scales. |
