Product Environmental Profile - PEP

Glossary

Raw Material Depletion (RMD)

This indicator quantifies the consumption of raw materials during the life cycle of

 

the product. It is expressed as the fraction of natural resources that disappear each

 

year, with respect to all the annual reserves of the material.

Energy Depletion (ED)

This indicator gives the quantity of energy consumed, whether it be from fossil,

 

hydroelectric, nuclear or other sources.

 

This indicator takes into account the energy from the material produced during

 

combustion. It is expressed in MJ.

Water Depletion (WD)

This indicator calculates the volume of water consumed, including drinking water

 

and water from industrial sources. It is expressed in dm3.

Global Warming (GW)

The global warming of the planet is the result of the increase in

 

the greenhouse effect due to the sunlight reflected by the earth’s surface being

 

absorbed by certain gases known as "greenhouse-effect" gases. The effect is

 

quantified in gram equivalent of CO2.

Ozone Depletion (OD)

This indicator defines the contribution to the phenomenon of

 

the disappearance of the stratospheric ozone layer due to the emission

 

of certain specific gases. The effect is expressed in gram equivalent

 

of CFC-11.

Air Toxicity (AT)

This indicator represents the air toxicity in a human environment. It takes into

 

account the usually accepted concentrations for several gases in the air and the

 

quantity of gas released over the life cycle. The indication given corresponds to the

 

air volume needed to dilute these gases down to acceptable concentrations.

Photochemical Ozone Creation (POC)

This indicator quantifies the contribution to the "smog" phenomenon

 

(the photochemical oxidation of certain gases which generates ozone) and is

 

expressed in gram equivalent of ethylene (C2H4).

Air Acidification (AA)

The acid substances present in the atmosphere are carried by rain.

 

A high level of acidity in the rain can cause damage to forests.

 

The contribution of acidification is calculated using the acidification potentials of the

 

substances concerned and is expressed in mode equivalent of H+.

Water Toxicity (WT)

This indicator represents the water toxicity. It takes into account the usually

 

accepted concentrations for several substances in water and the quantity of

 

substances released over the life cycle. The indication given corresponds to the

 

water volume needed to dilute these substances down to acceptable

 

concentrations.

Hazardous Waste Production (HWP)

This indicator calculates the quantity of specially treated waste created during all

 

the life cycle phases (manufacturing, distribution and utilization). For example,

 

special industrial waste in the manufacturing phase, waste associated with the

 

production of electrical power, etc.

 

It is expressed in kg.
