TT No. 97: Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Refined Palm Oil

A life-cycle assessment (LCA) enables a detailed evaluation of the environmental performance of the palm oil refining sector as it is a tool to measure the environmental aspects and potentia; impacts related to the refining process. LCA compiles an inventory of the inflow (material/resource and energy) and outflows (solid waste, gaseous and liquid emissions), evaluates the potential environment impacts associated with these flows, and then interprets the results to provide for informed decisions on improvements to the environmental performance.
