Popis: In this research, life cycle inventory database (LCI DB) was developed for liquid CO2 employing life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology. As are result of characterization and normalization process, production of liquid CO2 puts on environmental impact in the order of resource depletion, global warming, acidification, eutrophication and photochemical oxidation, and among a wide variety of input, electricity contributes in most of the impact categories. Air emission plays a key role in the acidification and eutrophication while ammonia affects most on the ozone depletion. It is anticipated that development of liquid CO2 LCI DB makes it possible for national environmental strategies to be more activated including environmental labeling scheme.
