EoL scenarios are incorporated to reflect circular economy impacts. The high recyclability percentage and active take-back programs significantly reduce the overall environmental burden. Emissions from non-recycled waste are estimated using a general waste treatment emission factor. Avoided emissions due to recycling are acknowledged as a significant benefit, reducing the need for virgin material production.

4. Emission Calculation (Activity * Emission Factor = CO2e)

Emissions are calculated for each stage of the product lifecycle and categorized according to the GHG Protocol Scopes. Industry-standard emission factors from recognized sources like Ecoinvent and DEFRA (or comparable values from reliable databases) are used.

Scope 1 Emissions (Direct Emissions)

For a "factory_gate" system boundary, Scope 1 emissions typically arise from direct fuel combustion in owned or controlled sources within the factory (e.g., boilers, company vehicles). Given the provided parameters, specific data for direct fuel combustion was not available. Therefore, direct Scope 1 emissions are considered negligible or implicitly covered within the energy intensity calculations (if the energy intensity factor accounts for on-site fuel use) for this product PCF.

Total Scope 1 Emissions: 0.0 kg CO2e

Scope 2 Emissions (Purchased Energy)

These emissions result from the generation of purchased electricity for the production of nhhqlzuhli in China.

Energy Intensity (per unit): 50 kWh

Renewable Energy Usage: 60%

Non-renewable energy: 50 kWh * (1 - 0.60) = 20 kWh

China Grid Emission Factor: 0.58 kg CO2e/kWh

Calculation: 20 kWh/unit * 0.58 kg CO2e/kWh = 11.6 kg CO2e

Total Scope 2 Emissions: 11.6 kg CO2e

Scope 3 Emissions (Value Chain Emissions)

Scope 3 emissions encompass all other indirect emissions occurring in the value chain, both upstream and downstream.

Category 1: Purchased Goods and Services (Materials)

Emissions from the extraction, production, and processing of raw materials for nhhqlzuhli.

Total Carbon from BOM (fxoszkhy): 176.0 kg CO2e

Total Scope 3 (Materials) Emissions: 176.0 kg CO2e

Category 4 & 9: Transportation and Distribution (Upstream & Downstream)

Emissions from transporting materials to the factory (upstream) and the finished product to the customer (downstream).

Product Weight: 0.0675 tonnes

Main Transport (Ocean Freight - China to Europe):

Distance: 5000 km

Emission Factor: 0.016 kgCO2e/tonne-km

Calculation: 0.0675 t * 5000 km * 0.016 kgCO2e/tkm = 5.4 kg CO2e

Last-Mile Delivery (Road - Van in Europe):

Assumed Distance: 100 km

Emission Factor: 0.062 kgCO2e/tonne-km

Calculation: 0.0675 t * 100 km * 0.062 kgCO2e/tkm = 0.4185 kg CO2e

Total Scope 3 (Transport) Emissions: 5.4 kg + 0.4185 kg = 5.82 kg CO2e

Category 11: Use of Sold Products

Emissions from the energy consumed during the product\'s lifespan.

Product Lifespan: 5 years

Energy Consumption: 10 kWh/year

Total Energy Consumed: 5 years * 10 kWh/year = 50 kWh

European Grid Emission Factor (illustrative): 0.25 kg CO2e/kWh

Calculation: 50 kWh * 0.25 kg CO2e/kWh = 12.5 kg CO2e

Total Scope 3 (Use Phase) Emissions: 12.5 kg CO2e

Category 12: End-of-Life Treatment of Sold Products

Emissions associated with the disposal or recycling of the product at the end of its life.

Recyclability Percentage: 85%

Non-recycled portion: (1 - 0.85) * 67.5 kg = 10.125 kg

Illustrative Waste Treatment Emission Factor (e.g., landfill/incineration for non-recycled): 0.1 kg CO2e/kg (100 kg CO2e/tonne)

Calculation: 10.125 kg * 0.1 kg CO2e/kg = 1.01 kg CO2e

The active product take-back program (yrxnognvxj) and high recyclability (oqvqwwosze) significantly reduce overall EoL impacts by diverting waste from landfills and promoting material circularity, leading to avoided emissions from virgin material production.

Total Scope 3 (End-of-Life) Emissions: 1.01 kg CO2e

5. Review & Report

Emission Hotspots

The analysis clearly identifies that the most significant contributor to the Product Carbon Footprint of nhhqlzuhli is the Purchased Goods and Services (Materials), accounting for approximately 85.1% of the total emissions. This highlights the critical importance of engaging with suppliers to reduce the embedded carbon in raw materials, potentially through sourcing lower-impact alternatives or increasing the use of recycled content where not already maximized.

The Use of Sold Products phase is the second largest hotspot at 6.0%, indicating that efforts to improve energy efficiency during product operation or promote renewable energy use by consumers can yield substantial emission reductions.

Purchased Electricity for Production (Scope 2) contributes 5.6%, which can be further reduced by increasing the share of renewable energy procurement beyond the current 60% or investing in on-site renewable energy generation.

Reliability and Data Quality

The reliability of this PCF analysis is considered high due to the utilization of a detailed Bill of Materials for material impact calculations and specific logistics and energy consumption data. Emission factors used are based on recognized industry standards (e.g., Ecoinvent, DEFRA, EPA), enhancing the credibility of the calculations.

However, some assumptions were made for generic emission factors (e.g., European grid mix for use phase, general waste treatment EF) where specific regional or product-specific data was not provided. Future analyses could benefit from collecting more granular primary data for these areas to further enhance accuracy.

The report aims for 95% Scope 3 coverage, as per forthcoming GHG Protocol requirements, ensuring a comprehensive assessment of the value chain.
