Life Cycle Inventory for Safflower Production in Southern Europe
Abstract Safflower is currently primarily cultivated as an industrial crop for its oil, which is used for food and industrial purposes, while the by-products can be used for animal feeding. Traditionally cultivated in the Mediterranean area, it was abandoned in the past for other oil crops, such as sunflower. However, it is now returning to be interesting due to its adaptability to low-input cultivation practices, especially when sown in autumn. The main aim of this study is to present a Life Cycle Inventory of safflower grown in a Southern European country, i.e. Italy, based on primary data on agricultural practices used in this country. The study was carried out following ISO 14040 and ISO 14044. Data were collected from experimental fields of the University of Perugia, to ensure a specific and accurate data collection for the definition of the complete supply chain. The reference unit of this study was defined as 1 ha. The stages from raw materials production to seed harvesting were considered. The data presented will be useful to increase the existing knowledge of safflower production in other Mediterranean countries.
期刊介绍:
Environmental and Climate Technologies provides a forum for information on innovation, research and development in the areas of environmental science, energy resources and processes, innovative technologies and energy efficiency. Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts which cover the range from bioeconomy, sustainable technology development, life cycle analysis, eco-design, climate change mitigation, innovative solutions for pollution reduction to resilience, the energy efficiency of buildings, secure and sustainable energy supplies. The Journal ensures international publicity for original research and innovative work. A variety of themes are covered through a multi-disciplinary approach, one which integrates all aspects of environmental science: -Sustainability of technology development- Bioeconomy- Cleaner production, end of pipe production- Zero emission technologies- Eco-design- Life cycle analysis- Eco-efficiency- Environmental impact assessment- Environmental management systems- Resilience- Energy and carbon markets- Greenhouse gas emission reduction and climate technologies- Methodologies for the evaluation of sustainability- Renewable energy resources- Solar, wind, geothermal, hydro energy, biomass sources: algae, wood, straw, biogas, energetic plants and organic waste- Waste management- Quality of outdoor and indoor environment- Environmental monitoring and evaluation- Heat and power generation, including district heating and/or cooling- Energy efficiency.
