Product Life Cycle Analysis: Flat Panel Display Monitors
“Human health and ecological toxicity potentials due to heavy metal content in waste electronic devices with flat panel displays” Journal of Hazardous Materials What were the system boundaries chosen by the authors of the study? What life cycle stage had the greatest impact? This study focused specifically on CRTs and LCDs, as used for computer desktop displays. These devices are known for their heavy metal components which eventually turn into gas and are deposited into the water.
