CBET-0829026B. BakshiOhio State UniversityThis research will integrate the Industrial Ecology and Ecological Engineering frameworks. It will expand Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to include the role of ecosystems. The resulting Ecologically-Based LCA (Eco-LCA) approach will be developed for use at multiple spatial scales with process or economic models. An Eco-LCA model of the 2002 U.S. economy will be developed by connecting the economic input-out model with relevant data and models about ecosystem goods and services. Hierarchical metrics for aggregating and interpreting the results will be developed based on quantities used for analyzing industrial or ecological systems such as energy, exergy, and emergy. The resulting insights about ecological implications of industrial processes will enable comprehensive analysis of coupled industrial and ecological systems. Collaboration with various industrial and academic partners along with the proposed software tools will ensure broad dissemination of the results. Applications to enhance campus sustainability will be completed via multidisciplinary courses at Ohio State University. A new website and teaching material about the role of ecosystems in industrial activities will be developed.

CBET-0829026B。这项研究将整合工业生态学和生态工程框架。它将扩大生命周期评估(LCA)，将生态系统的作用包括在内。由此产生的基于生态的生命周期评价(Eco-LCA)方法将被开发用于多个空间尺度上的过程或经济模型。通过将经济投入产出模型与有关生态系统商品和服务的数据和模型相结合，建立了2002年美国经济的生态生命周期评价模型。将根据用于分析工业或生态系统的数量，如能源、火用和能值，制定聚合和解释结果的分层指标。由此产生的对工业过程的生态影响的洞察将使对耦合的工业和生态系统的全面分析成为可能。与各种工业和学术伙伴的合作以及拟议的软件工具将确保广泛传播成果。增强校园可持续性的申请将通过俄亥俄州立大学的多学科课程完成。将开发一个关于生态系统在工业活动中的作用的新网站和教材。
