Abstract


The life cycle assessment of the coke cleaning agent developed by a university-enterprise cooperation project was conducted. This cleaning agent has the characteristics of phosphorus-free, environmentally friendly, and broad market prospects. The life cycle assessment of the established model showed that the GWP of producing 1kg of coke cleaning agent is 1.19 kg CO2 eq, PED is 13.17 MJ, WU is 186.74 kg, AP is 3.63E-03 kg SO2 eq, ADP is 7.75E-05 kg antimony eq, EP is 1.30E-03 kg PO43-eq, RI is 1.16E-03 kg PM2.5 eq, ODP is 4.63E-06 kg CFC-11 eq, and POFP is 1.85E-03 kg NMVOC eq .The uncertainty of the results is between 4.20% and 24.05%. The carbon footprint (GWP) analysis showed that the production process of isotridecanol polyoxyethylene ether, isopropanol, fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether M and isodecanol polyoxyethylene ether contributed significantly. The average sensitivity analysis showed that the most influential processes were sodium lauryl amphoacetate, isopropanol, and tripropylene glycol methyl ether.
