Tutorial 4 | Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology in microelectronics

Monday Afternoon Room 2

  • Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology: evaluating the environmental impacts of a product or process throughout its life cycle
  • Using the EF3.1 methodology (recommended by the European Commission), to identify the main environmental impacts (“hot spots”) and propose eco-design paths.
  • LCA case studies in microelectronics industry (from clean room manufacturing to components & systems)
