An Approach for Life Cycle Assessment of Electricity Generation at Gas-HFO Internal Combustion Engines in a Central Station. Open Access Library Journal, v. 1, p. e765, 2014. DOI: 10.4236/oalib.1100765.10.4236/oalib.1100765https://rigalileo.itegam.org.br/handle/123456789/799This paper applies the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) as an assessment tool to quantify the environmental impacts associated with electricity generation by internal combustion engines. Steps, resources, and/or supplies that have the greatest impacts during the life cycle of electricity generation are identified to contribute with measures of cleaner production in companies with similar power generation. The goal of this study is to evaluate the environmental impacts associated with the production of 1552 kWh of electricity by gas-HFO internal combustion engines, considering a scenario that responds to the use of lubricating oil, oily water treatment, collection, and transportation of sludge. The study of additives and contaminants from lubricating oil is included, taking into account that it is a complex task for life cycle inventory considering limitations to get data.pdf.AditivosMotores de Combustão InternaAvaliação do Ciclo de VidaÓleo LubrificanteGeração de EletricidadeAn Approach for Life Cycle Assessment of Electricity Generation at Gas-HFO Internal Combustion Engines in a Central StationArtigo CientíficoEngenharias
