Eco-indicator Assessment and Material Analysis of Kemei (KM-2668) Shaver Machine

Listed in Teesside University Research Data Repository

This report conducts a comprehensive cradle-to-grave analysis of the Kemei (KM-2668) Ladies' Shaver machine, focusing on material aspects, manufacturing processes, and environmental impacts.

Description

The primary objectives include disassembly analysis, eco-indicator assignment, product material analysis, material identification, manufacturing process examination, and recommendations for material selection improvements. The Kemei (KM-2668) Shaver machine is a high-carbon blade and electric rechargeable device designed for various purposes.

The report delves into its specifications, including voltage, power, usage time, and charging time. With more than six materials constituting its structure, the eco-indicator assignment selectively considers the main components due to limited material information. Assumptions guide the analysis, considering product usage, transportation, and disposal phases.

Usage assumptions, such as frequency and lifespan, aid in calculating eco-indicator values, leveraging UK electricity eco-indicator due to a lack of specific data for Pakistan. The transportation phase involves manufacturing in China, shipping to Karachi, and distribution to local markets. Disposal assumptions categorize materials for recycling or landfilling, impacting the overall environmental footprint.

The report highlights the environmental impact throughout the lifecycle, emphasizing the extraction of raw materials, manufacturing processes, and the usage phase, contributing to solid waste, flue gas emissions, and potential environmental hazards such as heavy metal contamination. The final eco-indicator assessment results indicate the significant environmental impact across production, use, and disposal phases. Notably, production processes and energy consumption contribute to greenhouse gases, global warming, and ozone layer depletion.

The report recommends areas for material selection improvements to mitigate environmental impact. In conclusion, the material analysis and eco-indicator assessment provide valuable insights into the environmental footprint of the Kemei (KM-2668) Shaver machine. The findings aim to guide future design and manufacturing decisions, promoting sustainability and minimizing the ecological impact of electrical appliances.
