  • characterization of automotive paints an Environmental Impact Analysis
    Progress in Organic Coatings, 2001
    Co-Authors: Stella Papasavva, Joseph Claya, Raymond Gunther
    Abstract:

    Abstract The Environmental Impacts associated with the manufacturing of different automotive paint materials including solvent-based and powder primers, water-based basecoat, and solvent-based and powder clearcoats were investigated based on life cycle Analysis (LCA). The LCA of each paint formulation included the Environmental emissions associated with mining and production of the raw materials, production of energy required to mine and produce raw materials and final product, mining of fossil fuels required to produce energy to run the mining and manufacturing processes, and transportation of raw materials to manufacturing plant. We have studied the Environmental performance of three different paint scenarios: (a) solventborne primer–waterborne basecoat–solventborne clearcoat; (b) powder primer–waterborne basecoat–solventborne clearcoat; (c) powder primer–waterborne basecoat–powder clearcoat. Results show that the LCA energy requirement to manufacture the polyester powder primer, in a quantity necessary to paint a sport utility vehicle, is lower by 67% compared to that found for the acrylic powder. For waterborne basecoat, the two colors white and pewter use about the same amount of energy. In manufacturing of the materials for the three painting scenarios considered, the powder primer–waterborne basecoat–powder clear is associated with the least energy, water consumption, solid waste, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). However, it exceeds other scenarios in particulate matter (PM), SO x , and CO 2 -equivalent emissions.

  • Environmental Impact Analysis and process optimization of batteries based on life cycle assessment
    Journal of Cleaner Production, 2018
    Co-Authors: Qingsong Wang, Xueliang Yuan, Hongrui Tang, Yuzhou Tang, Mansen Wang, Zhanlong Song
    Abstract:

    As an energy storage device, battery has been rapid developed in recent years with the typical Environmental problems such as consumption of resources and heavy metal pollution. Therefore, it is urgent to conduct a comprehensive Analysis and in-depth interpretation of the Environmental Impact of the battery industry to reduce Environmental pollution. Life cycle assessment is applied to analyze and compare the Environmental Impact of lead acid battery (LAB), lithium manganese battery (LMB) and lithium iron phosphate battery (LIPB) within the system boundary of "cradle-to-gate". The key processes and the key substances of Environmental Impact are identified by the traceability. The results showed that the overall Impact of LIPB production on environment is the smallest. The key substances that cause the Environmental Impact of LAB production process are refined lead and tin. Lithium manganate and aluminum shell are the key substances that cause the Environmental Impact of lithium manganese oxide production process. The key substances that cause the Environmental Impact of lithium iron phosphate production process are lithium iron phosphate and aluminum shell. According to the position of each key substance in the process, the Reduce-Reuse-Recycle principle of circular economy theory is adopted to suggest the corresponding optimization. This research can provide useful reference for government decision-making and the sustainable development of battery industry.
