Greenhouse gases emitted in manufacturing a product

客户提出的基本问题是，“制造一件产品排放了多少二氧化碳？”'不可用。它可以也应该适用于任何产品。这项工作的目标是开发简单、基本的模型，制造商可以使用这些模型来确定使用当地电网的特定产品或产品部件排放的温室气体。这属于可持续能源系统（生产分配）/低排放工业系统的指定区域。87%的资金将用于支持研究生，他们将学习在工业和未来碳交易市场中帮助他们的技能。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。操作产品所需的能源有时是可用的，例如，白色家电（烘干机，炉子）通常将此作为广告技术。然而，在制造一件产品的过程中，温室气体的排放量是不做广告的。制造商将能够应用易于使用的技术来计算制造产品时使用的温室气体（GHG’s）。这可以显示在该产品的温室气体标签上。顾客在决定购买产品时可以使用该标签。温室气体标签既可以用来推销产品，也可以用来宣传产品。提出的工作将直接连接用于制造产品的能源与当地电网的电力和制造产品时排放的二氧化碳。

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.
