Tanchuco, Joel Q. Energy and environmental concerns are intricately linked to the supply chains of various goods. Increased public awareness of such issues is reflected in the contemporary business environment as well as government legislation. Companies must not only comply with environmental regulations, but also contend with the need for increasingly green corporate practices in order to stay competitive in global markets. Thus, it is necessary to apply systematic techniques to quantify the environmental impacts of supply chains, and to identify opportunities for making improvements. This chapter discusses life cycle assessment principles and its application in the design and planning of industrial supply chains. A specific case study on the production of biofuels from agricultural crops is used to illustrate the key concepts. © 2009, IGI Global. 2008-12-01T08:00:00Z text text/html https://animorepository.dlsu.edu.ph/faculty_research/495 Faculty Research Work Animo Repository Life cycle costing Business logistics Chemical Engineering
