The aim of this book is to support industry in their effort to
design environ mentally friendly products. The book comprises a
method and a manual for life cycle assessment of products and it
includes examples of how industrial companies have used the method
succesfully in the design of more environ mentally friendly
products. The method has been developed over a period of four years
under the Danish EDIP programme (Environmental Design of Industrial
Products) by a team representing the Technical University of
Denmark, five Danish industrial companies, the Confederation of
Danish Industries and the Dan ish Environmental Protection Agency.
The method is coheherent and opera tional and it is well documented
by a large variety of examples including five different complex
electromechanical products. It guides the user through the
inventory and assessment of environmental impacts of products and
shows how various products and design solutions during product
development can be compared. The method is supported by a base of
data for the assessments of environmental impacts and is thus
designed as a tool which will make it possible for the user to
start on life cycle assessment at once. The book also guides the
user through the identification of environmental improvement
potentials in the product and the setting of environmental
specifications with in the general concept of overall commercial
optimization. The partnership between industry, authorities and
university has been highly fruitful."
