Abstract

Life cycle inventories for two types of washing machines (water-saving type and conventional type) were developed to investigate the total CO2 emissions during the life cycle. Additional life cycle inventories for detergent and city water consumed during the use of the washing machines were calculated. CO2 emissions attributable to treatment of Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) which is contained in washing machine waste water was also added to the life cycle inventories. It was concluded that the watersaving type washing machine can reduce the total amount of CO2 emissions during the life cycle by 5.3% compared to conventional washing machines.
