Environmental Benefits of Recycling – an international review of life cycle comparisons

This study is the largest and most comprehensive international review of LCA work on key materials that are often collected for recycling – paper/cardboard, plastics, aluminium, steel, glass, wood and aggregates. Of several hundred studies that were screened, 55 ‘state-of-the-art’ LCAs were selected for detailed review, comprising over 200 different scenarios, each one an LCA in its own right.
