| Research Abstract |
An approach to evaluate sustainability of regional bioresource utilization and recycling system was developed and applied in Tono City, Iwate Prefecture, Japan. Potential supply of bioresources was estimated and utilization system was discussed, followed by sustainability assessment based on comparison with current state, changes in material flow, and LCA. Use of manure from livestock excrement, woody biomass, and bio-fuel produced in abandoned agricultural lands were focused and evaluated on the basis of nitrogen flow, carbon emission, cost, and LCA.
