1 Life Cycle Assessment of Three Water Scenarios: Importation, Reclamation, and Desalination Erin Lyons, Peng Zhang, Troy Benn, Miles Costanza, Ke Li, John Crittenden Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering Arizona State University 1
2 Life Cycle Assessment Described by International Standards Organization, SETAC, US EPA Inventory of material and energy required for a product or process Data analyzed and categorized Find impacts on planet and humans
3 Life Cycle Assessment Extraction of Raw Materials Material and Energy Inputs Processing of Raw Materials Manufacturing, Transportation Distribution Use/ Reuse/ Maintenance Recycling Final Disposal Process Wastes Releases to the Environment
4 Life Cycle Assessment Steps Goal and scope definition Purpose Boundary conditions (spatial and temporal) Inventory analysis Gather data Allocate inputs and outputs Impact analysis Classify and characterize data Assign weights to different impacts Improvement analysis Evaluate opportunities to decrease impacts May discuss any portion of the life cycle
5 Outline Objectives Test Scenarios SimaPro LCA Software Results and Conclusions
6 Objectives Compare three water treatment systems using different raw water sources Quantify materials used in plant infrastructure Quantify energy and material inputs required to produce 1000 gallons of water Analyze the results of the system design using SimaPro LCA software Identify trends and key factors
7 Outline Objectives Test Scenarios SimaPro LCA Software Results and Conclusions
8 Importation: Scottsdale Receives water from Central Arizona Project (CAP Plant) 200 mile canal Traditional water treatment processes Portion of the impacts based on portion of total water received (3%)
9 Reclamation: Scottsdale Reclaims wastewater for use (Reclaimed Plant) Wastewater treatment, advanced water treatment, and groundwater recharge and extraction Supplemented by groundwater
10 Desalination: Phoenix Seawater is desalinated at the Sea of Cortez and then transported to Phoenix Desalination plant at the Sea of Cortez Pipeline system for water transportation (165 miles)
11 Plant Design Assumptions WTP, WWTP, and AWTP are modeled on Scottsdale facilities WTP 50 MGD WWTP 35 MGD AWTP 30 MGD Desalination plant (324 mgd) is scaled up from Ashkelon Plant in Israel with capacity of 36 mgd Basins concrete reinforced with steel rebar Chemical dosing and electricity averages from literature Chemical transport rail into Phoenix, truck from Phoenix to Scottsdale

21 Outline Objectives Test Scenarios SimaPro LCA Software Results and Conclusions
22 SimaPro LCA Software PRé Environmental Consultants Purpose is to perform LCA calculations 12 data libraries 9 programmed calculation methodologies
23 Eco-Indicator 99 H/A Calculation method Designed top-down, weighting first 40% human health; 40% ecosystem quality; 20% resource availability Mid-range time scale Some avoidance of damage Does not account for noise
24 Eco-Indicator 99 Calculations 1) Inventory of all flows through the product life cycle Inventory Results 2) Damage Model for the flows Damage to resources Damage to ecosystems Damage to human health 3) Weighting of the damage categories Indicator

40 Energy Mix Comparisons 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 10% 0% US France Norway Other Hydro Nuclear Oil/Gas Coal
41 Reclaimed Plant Energy Mix Analysis Points 0.01 Resources Ecosystem Quality Human Health US France Norway
42 Conclusions Reclaimed plant has larger environmental impacts than CAP plant Impact of operation higher than impact of infrastructure Infrastructure impact decreases as life span increases All three plants impacts dominated by energy use Changing the energy mix could decrease environmental impacts
43 Future Research More time, more data Water quality analysis, especially to consider issues with reclaimed water Distribution system, use, collection system Include analysis of land consumed by dams and canal, ecosystem damages
