Greenhouse gases emitted in manufacturing a product

客户提出的基本问题是：“在制造产品时排放了多少二氧化碳？'不可用。它可以而且应该适用于任何产品。拟议工作的目标是开发简单的基本模型，供制造商使用，以确定特定产品或产品部件使用当地电网排放的温室气体。这福尔斯可持续能源系统（生产分配）/低排放工业系统的指定领域。87%的资金将用于支持研究生，他们将学习技能，帮助他们在工业和未来的碳交易市场。能源消耗是温室气体排放的主要原因，其中很大一部分排放发生在制造业。操作产品所需的能量有时是可用的，例如，白色商品（烘干机，炉子）通常将其用作广告技术。然而，在制造产品过程中排放的温室气体量并没有公布。制造商将能够应用开发的易于使用的技术来计算制造产品中使用的温室气体（GHG）。这可以显示在该产品的温室气体标签上。消费者可以使用标签来决定购买产品。温室气体标签既可用于产品营销，也可用于产品广告。这项工作将在使用当地电网的电力制造产品所用的能源与制造产品所排放的二氧化碳之间建立直接联系。

The basic question posed by a customer, "how much CO2 has been emitted in making a product?' is not available. It can and should be available for any product. The objective of the work proposed is to develop simple, basic models that can be used by a manufacturer to determine the Greenhouse Gases emitted for a specific product, or product part, using a local electrical power grid. This falls within the designated area of Sustainable Energy systems (production distribution)/ low emission industrial systems. 87% of the funding will be used to support graduate students, who will learn skills that will aid them in industry and future carbon trading markets. Energy consumption is the primary reason for Greenhouse Gas emissions and a large part of the emissions occur in the manufacturing sector. The energy needed to operate a product is sometimes available, for instance, white goods (dryers, stoves) generally use this as an advertising technique. However, the amount ofGreenhouse Gas emitted in manufacturing a product is not advertised. A manufacturer will be able to apply the easy-to-use techniques developed to calculate the Greenhouse Gases (GHG's) used in manufacturing a product. This can then be shown on a GHG label for that product. The label can be used by a customer in deciding to purchase a product. GHG labels can be used to both market and to advertise a product. The work proposed will make a direct connection between the energy used to make a product with power from a local power grid and the CO2 emitted in making the product.
