Life cycle assessment of construction and demolition waste management systems: a Spanish case study
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed and analyzed a life cycle inventory of construction and demolition waste (C&DW) management systems based on primary data collected directly from Spanish enterprises involved in the life cycle of this type of waste material.

Assessing potential desertification environmental impact in life cycle assessment. Part 1: Methodological aspects.
Montserrat Núñez,Bárbara María Civit,Pere Muñoz,Alejandro Pablo Arena,Joan Rieradevall,Assumpció Antón +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a methodology for including the desertification environmental impact derived from land use in LCA studies, using data generally available to LCA users, which can be calibrated and improved for different case studies.

Life cycle and environmental assessment of calcium looping (CaL) in solar thermochemical energy storage
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors developed a comprehensive life cycle assessment of the calcium looping integration in solar plants to assess the potential of the technology from an environmental perspective. But the results showed the moderate environmental impact of the calcined thermochemical energy storage technology, resulting in lower equivalent carbon dioxide emissions (24 kg/MWh) than other energy storage options such as molten salt-based solar facilities.
