摘要
Sustainability has long been a part of social responsibility. Today sustainability is a part of the core business strategies. It is viewed with environmental and economic perspectives. India, being a manufacturing hub has to deal with the problem of environmental and social impacts of these manufacturing operations. Smithy operations have large adverse impact on the environment. Life-cycle analysis should be applied to alleviate and reflect environmental burdens of this process. This paper presents the basic concepts of sustainability and life cycle analysis. A study has been carried out in the context of smithy training process. Software tool Umberto 5.6 with eco-invent 2.2 database is used for analysis. The effect of smithy training in term of acidification potential, climate change, eutrophication potential, freshwater aquatic, eco-toxicity, marine aquatic eco-toxicity, human toxicity, ionizing radiation, land use, photochemical Ox (smog), and stratospheric ozone depletion.
