This document is the updated version of D4.2 Report on preliminary Life Cycle Assessmentand Material Flow analysis-R1 within the framework of WP4 - Raw Materials. Sustainability,techno-economic, health and safety assessment. The present report contains the mainresults of the WP4 of PASSENGER project based on the latest data obtained from thetechnical WPs during the project implementation. The purpose of the present report is topresent a preliminary assessment of the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), Life Cycle Costing(LCC) and Material Flow Analysis (MFA) based on advanced data of the processes that arebeing developed inside the PASSENGER project. The latest data from Task 4.1 andliterature data on the full value chain were utilised for updating the Material Flow Analysis.The scope of D4.3 is to perform several revised LCA/LCC/MFA studies in order toincorporate the environmental and economic results in the technologies and products andquantify raw materials use in PASSENGER solution.The LCA study has been performed following the ISO 14040 standards. The Life CycleInventory (LCI) was updated using the latest available data provided by the partnersregarding the mass and energy balances or their technologies and processes. All thesedata were collected in deliverable 4.4 “Collect all required life cycle inventory data atmaterial, process and prototype level”. The database LCI was built by gathering informationon inputs (consumption of different production parameters, energy, and water) and outputs(wastes and emissions) related to the production process. The filled database wasprocessed with LCIA (Life Cycle Impact Assessment) methods for the quantification of theabsolute impact, considering a full set of environmental indicators (carbon and waterfootprint, particular matter formation, cumulative energy demand, ecotoxicity etc.) for theidentification of the environmental hotspots within the developed technology. In this report,a benchmarking LCA study of the conventional technologies is also presented forcomparison purposes and evaluation of the environmental benefits of the PASSENGERsolution. Moreover, the economic life cycle assessment of the proposed PASSENGERsolution was investigated including CAPEX and OPEX calculations as part of the Life CycleCosting analysis. Finally, the framework of the Social Life Cycle assessment study aimingto investigate the societal impact of PASSENGER project with a time horizon for 5, 25 and50 years is presented in the present deliverable.

This deliverable is currently under review by the European Commission.
