Methodology

The Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) analysis for yyrptjdufm was conducted following a five-step methodology in accordance with the GHG Protocol Product Standard:

Define Scope

The functional unit for this analysis is defined as 1.0 unit of yyrptjdufm. The system boundary adopted is factory_gate, covering all processes from raw material extraction to the product leaving the factory gate, extended to include the use phase and end-of-life. The geographic scope focuses on a Final Production Country: China, with a Supply Chain Focus: Europe Focused. Allocation of emissions to the functional unit is based on mass for raw materials and direct attribution for energy and transport.

Map Lifecycle (LCI Inventory Stages)

The lifecycle of yyrptjdufm was mapped to identify all relevant stages contributing to its carbon footprint. These stages include:

Raw Material Acquisition and Pre-processing (Cradle-to-Gate): Extraction, processing, and manufacturing of all components as detailed in the Bill of Materials.

Manufacturing/Production: Energy consumption and related emissions during the assembly and production of the product in China.

Transport: Logistics for raw materials to the factory and for the finished product to the market.

Use Phase: Energy consumption by the product during its lifespan.

End-of-Life (EoL): Disposal, recycling, and recovery processes at the end of the product\'s life.

Collect Data

Both primary and secondary data points were collected. Primary data includes specific details provided by uwngsfuepk regarding their Bill of Materials, energy usage, and product specifications. Secondary data, primarily industry-standard emission factors, was sourced from reputable databases such as Ecoinvent and DEFRA for processes where primary data was unavailable or for general industry averages (e.g., electricity grids, transport modes).

Calculate Emissions

Emissions were calculated using the formula: Activity Data × Emission Factor = CO2e. All greenhouse gas emissions are expressed in carbon dioxide equivalents (CO2e). Emissions are categorized into Scope 1 (direct), Scope 2 (purchased energy), and Scope 3 (value chain - upstream and downstream) in strict adherence to the GHG Protocol.

2026 LSR Update: The Land Sector and Removals (LSR) Standard has been applied, accounting for any significant land use changes or carbon removals within the product\'s lifecycle, though specific data on these were not provided for quantitative analysis in this instance.

The product weight for transport calculations was assumed to be 1.0 kg.

4. Emission Calculations

The following calculations were performed to determine the CO2e emissions across the product\'s lifecycle stages.

4.1. Raw Material Acquisition and Pre-processing (Scope 3 - Upstream)

The total carbon impact from raw materials is derived by summing the "Total Carbon" values provided in the Detailed Bill of Materials. These values represent the cradle-to-gate emissions for each component.

Total Material Emissions: 0.60 kgCO2e

4.2. Manufacturing/Production (Scope 2)

Emissions from the production phase are primarily due to purchased electricity. Given the 60% renewable energy usage, 40% of the energy intensity contributes to the carbon footprint, using the China grid emission factor.

Energy Intensity: 25 kWh/unit

Non-Renewable Energy: 25 kWh/unit * (1 - 60%) = 10 kWh/unit

China Grid Emission Factor: 0.7 kgCO2e/kWh

Production Emissions: 10 kWh/unit * 0.7 kgCO2e/kWh = 7.00 kgCO2e

4.3. Transport (Scope 3 - Upstream)

Transport emissions cover the movement of the finished product to the market based on the specified mode and distance. (Assumption: Product weight for transport is 1.0 kg).

Product Weight: 1.0 kg (0.001 tons)

Transport Distance: 1500 km

Road Freight Emission Factor (HGV 16-32t): 0.08 kgCO2e/tkm

Transport Emissions: 0.001 tons * 1500 km * 0.08 kgCO2e/tkm = 0.12 kgCO2e

4.4. Use Phase (Scope 3 - Downstream)

Emissions during the product\'s use phase are calculated based on its energy consumption over its lifespan. A generic global average grid emission factor is applied here, considering the \'Europe Focused\' supply chain which implies global distribution.

Product Lifespan: 5 years

Energy Consumption in Use: 10 kWh/year

Total Energy Consumption over Lifespan: 10 kWh/year * 5 years = 50 kWh

Global Average Grid Emission Factor: 0.4 kgCO2e/kWh

Use Phase Emissions: 50 kWh * 0.4 kgCO2e/kWh = 20.00 kgCO2e

4.5. End-of-Life (EoL) (Scope 3 - Downstream)

The End-of-Life scenario incorporates a credit for recycling, reflecting circular economy impacts. With 80% recyclability and a comprehensive take-back scheme, a portion of the initial material emissions is considered avoided.

Total Initial Material Impact: 0.60 kgCO2e

Recyclability Percentage: 80%

EoL Credit Factor (avoided virgin material): 50%

EoL Credits: - (0.60 kgCO2e * 80% * 50%) = -0.24 kgCO2e
