Inclusion of the variability of diffuse pollutions in LCA for agriculture: the case of slurry application techniques

LCA of comprehensive pig manure management incorporating integrated technology systems

“…In some European countries, storage and land application systems which are most commonly applied are a storage tank with natural crust cover and band spreading systems (Langevin et al, 2010;Prapaspongsa, 2010). Therefore, the sensitivity scenarios applied to these systems and energy extraction (S8B, S10B and S12B) are assessed.…”

Integrated manure management to reduce environmental impact: II. Environmental impact assessment of strategies

“…The applied N was corrected for NH 3 and N 2 O emission prior to multiplying with the leaching fraction (Dekker et al, 2009;Langevin et al, 2010). The leaching fraction for grassland was assumed 0.36 of the fraction on arable land .…”

Lowering the global warming impact of bridge rehabilitations by using Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concretes

“…Uncertainties are present all along the process of environmental evaluation [44]. These can be due to a poor knowledge of processes included in the environmental database [45] or to uncertainti es on the way pollutants are transferred and act into the different ecosystems [46]. For building materials, the evaluation has also to deal with specific concerns of civil engineering compared to other industrial sectors [47].…”
