AS ISO 14044:2019 PDF Download

AS ISO 14044:2019 is a standard that outlines the requirements and provides guidelines for conducting life cycle assessments (LCA). The standard covers various aspects of the LCA process, including the goal and scope definition, life cycle inventory analysis (LCI), life cycle impact assessment (LCIA), life cycle interpretation, reporting and critical review, limitations, relationship between the different phases, and conditions for using value choices and optional elements.

The standard encompasses both LCA studies and life cycle inventory studies. It emphasizes the importance of considering the intended application of LCA or LCI results during the goal and scope definition stage, but it does not address the application itself, as it is beyond the scope of the standard. Additionally, it is important to note that the standard is not intended for contractual or regulatory purposes, registration, or certification.
