3. Methodology

The Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) analysis was conducted following a five-step methodology aligned with the GHG Protocol Product Standard.

Define Scope:

The functional unit is defined as 1.0 unit of \'xjzlemshrx\'. The system boundary is \'factory_gate\', encompassing raw material acquisition, manufacturing, and transport to the factory gate. For a holistic view, additional modules covering the use phase and end-of-life treatment have also been considered, extending to a "cradle-to-grave" perspective. Geographic scope focuses on production in China with a European-focused supply chain, meaning raw materials and finished product distribution are primarily linked to Europe. Allocation of emissions is based on mass and economic value where co-products are identified.

Map Lifecycle (LCI inventory stages):

The lifecycle of \'xjzlemshrx\' was mapped to include: raw material extraction and processing, inbound transportation to the manufacturing facility, product manufacturing (including energy consumption), outbound transportation, product use phase, and end-of-life treatment (recycling, disposal).

Collect Data (Primary/Secondary data points):

Data collection involved utilizing a detailed Bill of Materials (BOM) for high-accuracy material impact, specific logistics data, and customized energy consumption figures for the production phase. Industry-standard secondary emission factors (e.g., from Ecoinvent/DEFRA, IEA, EPA, GLEC) were applied for processes where primary data was unavailable, ensuring robust calculations.

Calculate Emissions (Activity * Emission Factor = CO2e):

Emissions were calculated by multiplying activity data (e.g., material quantity, energy consumption, transport distance) by corresponding emission factors, expressed in kg CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent).

Review & Report (Hotspots and reliability):

The calculated emissions were reviewed to identify key hotspots across the product\'s lifecycle. Reliability of the data sources and assumptions was assessed, and recommendations for further data collection and emission reduction strategies were formulated.

5. Emissions Calculation and GHG Protocol Categorization (Step 4)

The total carbon footprint for one functional unit of \'xjzlemshrx\' is calculated by summing the emissions from each lifecycle stage, categorized according to the GHG Protocol Scopes.

5.1. Scope 1: Direct GHG Emissions

For a product carbon footprint from a \'factory_gate\' perspective, direct GHG emissions (e.g., from on-site fuel combustion for manufacturing processes) are typically minimal or zero unless specific direct emissions are attributed to the product\'s production. In this analysis, no explicit Scope 1 emissions were provided, and therefore, for this PCF, direct manufacturing emissions are assumed to be negligible or covered under the manufacturing electricity.

Total Scope 1 Emissions: 0.00 kgCO2e

5.2. Scope 2: Indirect GHG Emissions from Purchased Energy

These emissions result from the generation of purchased electricity consumed during the manufacturing of \'xjzlemshrx\' in China.

Calculation: (Energy Intensity per unit * (1 - Renewable Energy Usage)) * Electricity Grid Emission Factor (China)

Energy Consumption (non-renewable): 40 kWh/unit

Electricity Grid Emission Factor (China): 0.6205 kgCO2e/kWh

Total Scope 2 Emissions: 40 kWh/unit * 0.6205 kgCO2e/kWh = 24.82 kgCO2e

5.3. Scope 3: Other Indirect GHG Emissions (Value Chain)

Scope 3 emissions represent the largest portion of the product\'s footprint, covering upstream and downstream activities.

5.3.1. Upstream Emissions (Purchased Goods & Services, Transport)

Category 1: Purchased Goods and Services (Materials)

Total Carbon from BOM: Sum of \'Total Carbon\' column = 6.00 + 1.00 + 0.80 + 2.00 + 1.50 + 0.21 = 11.51 kgCO2e

Category 4: Upstream Transportation and Distribution (Raw Materials)

Assuming inbound transport of 2.05 kg of raw materials from Europe to China via sea freight:

Weight: 0.00205 tonnes (2.05 kg)

Distance: 10,000 km (hoodfkjpow)

Emission Factor (Sea Freight): 0.02 kgCO2e/tonne-km

Total Upstream Transport Emissions: 0.00205 tonnes * 10,000 km * 0.02 kgCO2e/tonne-km = 0.41 kgCO2e

Total Upstream Scope 3 Emissions: 11.51 kgCO2e (Materials) + 0.41 kgCO2e (Upstream Transport) = 11.92 kgCO2e

5.3.2. Downstream Emissions (Transportation, Use, End-of-Life)

Category 9: Downstream Transportation and Distribution (Finished Product)

Assuming outbound transport of 2.05 kg finished product from China to Europe via sea freight, and last-mile delivery in Europe via road freight.

Sea Freight (China to Europe):

Weight: 0.00205 tonnes

Distance: 10,000 km (hoodfkjpow)

Emission Factor (Sea Freight): 0.02 kgCO2e/tonne-km

Emissions: 0.00205 tonnes * 10,000 km * 0.02 kgCO2e/tonne-km = 0.41 kgCO2e

Road Freight (Last-Mile Delivery in Europe):

Weight: 0.00205 tonnes

Distance: 500 km (hoodfkjpow)

Emission Factor (Road Freight - HGV): 0.092 kgCO2e/tonne-km

Emissions: 0.00205 tonnes * 500 km * 0.092 kgCO2e/tonne-km = 0.0943 kgCO2e

Total Downstream Transport Emissions: 0.41 + 0.0943 = 0.5043 kgCO2e

Category 11: Use of Sold Products

Calculated based on product lifespan and energy consumption during use, assuming an average European grid mix.

Lifespan: 5 years (jpmvdussem)

Energy Consumption in Use: 10 kWh/year (ioyrduhzij)

Electricity Grid Emission Factor (Europe): 0.25 kgCO2e/kWh (illustrative)

Total Use Phase Emissions: 5 years * 10 kWh/year * 0.25 kgCO2e/kWh = 12.50 kgCO2e

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

Calculated based on recyclability and disposal factors for the total product mass.

Total Product Mass: 2.05 kg

Recyclability Percentage: 70% (wfkssenvpo)

Mass Recycled: 2.05 kg * 0.70 = 1.435 kg

Mass Landfilled: 2.05 kg * (1 - 0.70) = 0.615 kg

Emissions from Landfilling: 0.615 kg * 0.5 kgCO2e/kg = 0.3075 kgCO2e

Credits from Recycling: 1.435 kg * -1.0 kgCO2e/kg = -1.435 kgCO2e (representing avoided virgin material production)

Total End-of-Life Emissions: 0.3075 kgCO2e + (-1.435 kgCO2e) = -1.1275 kgCO2e

Circular/Take-back Programs (enjqjxpong): The presence of circular/take-back programs significantly enhances the potential for higher recyclability and recovery rates, contributing positively to reducing end-of-life impacts and fostering a circular economy.

Total Downstream Scope 3 Emissions: 0.5043 kgCO2e (Downstream Transport) + 12.50 kgCO2e (Use Phase) - 1.1275 kgCO2e (EoL) = 11.8768 kgCO2e

5.4. Summary of PCF by GHG Protocol Scope
