Research Abstract |
All sectors have to assess the occurrence of risk trade-off by the result of theirmeasures. That is to say, they assess whether chemical risks would be increased or not in compensation for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. To meet the background, we developed the assessment model of risk trade-off by combining risk assessment methodologies with life cycle assessment. Our model was applied to two case studies:(i) Recovering biogas and phosphorus from sewage sludge and food waste in updating of urban sludge disposal system; and (ii) Prevailing solar power photovoltaic generation panel in reconstruction of urban buildings.
