Renewability and life-cycle energy efficiency of bioethanol and bio-ethyl tertiary butyl ether (bioETBE): Assessing the implications of allocation (2006, unknown): “[57].”
Allocation issues in LCA methodology: a case study of corn stover-based fuel ethanol (2009, methodology): “…ISO series (2006) recommends using methods that reflects the physical relationship such as mass and energy content or using other relevant variables to allocate, such as economic value of the products, which is similar to the cost allocation methods in managerial accounting (Guinée et al., 2004).”
Sensitivity coefficient-based uncertainty analysis for multi-functionality in LCA (2014, background): “(26) concerns economic allocation (Guinée et al. 2004): Economic allocation is sometimes criticized because economic allocation factors are derived from potentially fluctuating market prices (Ardente and Cellura 2012; Pelletier and Tyedmers 2011; Weinzettel 2012; Pelletier and Tyedmers 2012).”
Recent developments in Life Cycle Assessment. (2009, background): “If that is not possible, an allocation reflecting the physical (or chemical or biological) causations should be used if possible, and finally, if that is not feasible, allocation based on other measures, such as economic value (Guinée et al., 2004), mass, or energy, may be used.”
An Ecological Economic Critique of the Use of Market Information in Life Cycle Assessment Research (2011, background): “In lieu of physical causality, socioeconomic causality has historically been advanced as the next best alternative (Guinee et al. 2002; Guinee et al. 2004).”
LCI modelling approaches applied on recycling of materials in view of environmental sustainability, risk perception and eco-efficiency (2010, methodology): “A variation of this approach is proposed by Guinée et al. (2004). They consider the recycling of aluminium being a co-production process and use the economic value to determine the shares of impacts and expenses of the recycling process to be attributed to the waste treatment service provided and th”
