A Life Cycle Impacts Assessment of the Differences between the LNG Cement Mixer Truck and its Diesel Counterpart

Abstract:

In order to evaluate the potential environmental burdens of the liquefied natural gas (LNG) as a transportation fuel quantitatively, the life cycle impacts of the differences between a LNG cement mixer truck and its diesel counterpart were compared through the CML2001 assessment model, the results showed that although with a higher ADP elements, the LNG mixer’s overall normalized environment impact is obviously lower than the diesel mixer.
