Overview of Life Cycle Assessment method in nuclear energy field
Original language description
Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is considered as analytical tool which can perfectly described whole life cycle of the systems processes and evaluate GHG emissions. LCA is commonly used in different areas of energy sector. It is important method how to gainresults and data which could show concrete potential environmental harm. LCA in nuclear field has been already used and described in nearly 300 papers and scientific journals. Documents about Life Cycle Inventories of different energy systems of different countries usually include assessment of oil, natural gas, coal, nuclear, hydro power, photovoltaic and wind power energy systems1,2. The main goal of LCA methodology for nuclear power production is to estimate the current GHG footprint of nuclear powerbased largely on the global average nuclear fuel cycle3. Nuclear energy production is based on two different cycles - either open fuel cycle or closed fuel cycle. This paper is based on selected papers and documents which are critically
