Abstract
Life Cycle Impact Assessment (LCIA) is the third phase of Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) described in ISO 14042.
The purpose of LCIA is to assess a product system’s life cycle inventory analysis (LCI) in order to better understand
its environmental significance. However, LCIA typically excludes spatial, temporal, threshold and dose-response
information, and combines emissions or activities over space and/or time. This may diminish the environmental
relevance of the indicator result. The methodology, Dynamic LCA -Fire proposed in this paper to complete the
International Standard ISO 14042 in the fire field, combines the LCA - Fire method with the Dispersion Numerical
Model. It is based on the use of the plume model used to assess pollutant concentrations and thermal effects from fire
accident scenarios. In this study, The Dynamic LCA - Fire methodology is applied to a case study for petroleum
production process management.
