COMPARISON OF POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS ON THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF HIGH AND LOW SULFUR REGULAR DIESEL BY LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT

COMPARISON OF POTENTIAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS ON THE PRODUCTION AND USE OF HIGH AND LOW SULFUR REGULAR DIESEL BY LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT

This paper provides a comparative analysis using the concept of life cycle assessment (LCA), between high-sulfur (3 000 ppm) and low-sulfur diesel (500 ppm) diesel. The comparative LCA considers the stages of production, transport and oil refining, as well as the transport of refined products and th...
