| Tiivistelmä: | The product level eco-efficiency (here as: e/e) is defined as product value (as: p-v.) per unit of environmental (here as: env-al.) impact. This paper presents a method for quantifying the e/e using quality function deployment (QFD) and life-cycle impact assessment (LCIA). These well-known tools are used in the manufacturing industry. QFD is introduced to calculate the p-v. Env-al. impacts throughout a product life cycle are calculated based on an LCIA method widely used in Japan. Eco-design support tools, namely, the life-cycle planning (LCP) tool and the life-cycle assessment (LCA) tool, have been developed. Using these tools, data required for calculation of the e/e of products can be collected. The product value is calculated based on QFD data stored in the LCP tool and the env-al. impact is calculated using the LCA tool. Case studies of e/e are adopted and the adequacy of this method is clarified etc. |
