Abstract

While Life Cycle Assessment(LCA) is evaluating the external environment of the product system based on the functional unit of the system, Risk Assessment(RA) assesses the internal working environment based on the product site. In order to develop a Green Quality Assessment method, both the external and internal aspects of environment are considered in the present study. As the first step, RA is modified to reflect the internal environment based on the product by introducing the EDIP(Environmental Design of Industrial Products)method. Then, the modified BEES(Building for Environmental and Economic Sustainability)model is applied to generate the integrated GQI(Green Quality Indicator). This GQI generated is expected to be used as one of the useful indicators which include the aspects of both natural environment and working environment.
