LCA, you first need a defensible inventory: how much waste the city generates, what it is made of, and where each material actually goes.<\/p>\r\n<p>Many LCA users find this step slow and error-prone. Composition and routing shares have to be multiplied out by hand, mass balances rarely close, and the results then have to be converted into flows and units the LCA software accepts.<\/p>\r\n<div class=\"callout\"><p>The calculator handles this step for you. Every tonne generated is accounted for, every material closes at 100%, and every result is ready to use as background data.<\/p><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"page-section\">\r\n<span class=\"page-eyebrow\">Built for LCA<\/span>\r\n<h2>Background data for any LCA software<\/h2>\r\n<p>The calculator was built first as a tool for life cycle assessment studies.
