Life Cycle Assessment of a Water Treatment Plant: A Review

Prince Tiwari

Abstract: We study the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of a Waste water treatment Plant (WWTP) in a university campus located in India. The emissions of the WWTP along with their impact factor are analysed using Umberto NXT universal utilizing Eco-invert database v3.0, which is a LCA software. According to the report, there is a positive impact on the assessed categories by the recycled water from the plant. In the categories like global warming potential, terrestrial eco-toxicity potential, fossil depletion potential and particulate matter formation, the effect of treatment system is overriding the effect of recycled water.
