I. Stage related
A. “Production” stage is intended for two sub-stages listed below.
(1) “Raw material” production: consists of mining, transportation and raw material production.
(2) “Product” production: consists of the parts processing, assembly and installation.
B. “Distribution” stage is intended for transportation of produced product. Transportation of consumables and maintenance goods (e.g., replacement parts) for use of the product are included into “Use” stage.
C. “Use” stage in intended for use of the product (active mode, standby mode, etc.) and production, transportation to disposal of consumables/maintenance goods (e.g., replacement parts).
D. “Disposal” stage in intended for environmental impacts by product disposal.
II. Inventory analyses
A. Data of mineral ore on “Exhaustible resources” are presented in weight of pure ingredients (e.g., iron, aluminum) in the ore.
B. Data on energy resources are presented based on origin in calorific value. e.g. Data on uranium ore presents weight of uranium concentrate, which is available for use as an atomic fuel.
C. Data of discharge to water system are in actual figure (not calculated using unit function in inventory analyses).
III. Impact analyses
Result of the “Impact analyses” is found in converting results of inventory analyses into total amount of a reference material (e.g. CO2 in case of “Global Warming”).
A. Impact “by resource consumption” represents magnitude of impacts to resource depletion.
B. Impact “by emission/discharge to environment” represents magnitude of impacts to Atmosphere, Water and Soil system.
IV. Data entry format
A. Exponential notation, after the decimal point to two, should be used.
B. Indicate “0” instead exponential notation, if the result of calculation or estimation is considered as “zero” or negligible in comparison to related results.
C. Indicate “－” if calculation nor estimation can not be done, in order to differentiate to indicate “zero”.
D. Row total of the data is automatically calculated, excluding a row includes “－” item. Row total of such is presented as a blank (no data).
(BGD for material production are for production from mineral ore. Those data do not include reclaiming processes like recovery from scrap.)[Notes for readers: Target product specific]
1. Product weight includes an ink cartridge and other accessories. Packaging weight includes packaging material and appended goods (e.g., user’s manual, other printed matter).
2. Production stage includes the production/distribution impact of the parts making up a machine and the initial set of an ink cartridge and an inkjet head, as well as the impact of product assembly.
3. Distribution stage’s impact is calculated according to the PCR. The transportation distance of a product from an overseas factory to the port of Japan is based on actual distance.
The transportation distance in Japan uses 100 km as average distance
4. Use stage’s impact is calculated according to the PCR. It includes the impact of printing 2 sets of the 5 types of images defined by the ISO/IEC-24712 a day.
A user is supposed to use a machine for 3 years, print 10 sheets a day, and operate a machine 8 hours a day, 20 days a month, 12 months a year.
A machine is supposed to be powered off for 16 hours when it is not used.
The production, distribution, and disposal/recycle impact of the ink cartridges used in those 3 years is also included.
The distribution impact of consumables is calculated under the same condition of products:
The transportation distance of consumables from an overseas factory to the port of Japan is based on actual distance. The transportation distance in Japan uses 100 km as average distance.
Since we have no past record of consumables collection/recycle, they are assumed to be collected as general waste, crushed and separated as combustible/non-combustible material.
This stage includes the incineration impact of combustible materials and the landfill impact of non-combustible materials of consumables.
5. Disposal stage: Since we have not collected machines as a producer in Japan, they are assumed to be collected as general waste, crushed and separated as combustible/non-combustible material.
This stage includes the incineration impact of combustible materials and the landfill impact of non-combustible materials of machines.
