Abstract

The capacity of captive power plants has grown at a high rate in India in the recent past. As a result, harmful emissions have increased that need to be accounted for the overall sustainability of the parent plant. The aim of this research work is to quantify the environmental impact which is associated with the captive power plant usage through life cycle assessment approach. In the present study, Life cycle assessment (LCA) methodology is adopted from gate to grave system boundary. LCA of the CPP was conducted to assess the actual effect of power plant on the environment. The GaBi 6.4 software was used to analyze the energy input and emissions of harmful gases in the CPP. The study suggests that the Photochemical Ozone Creation Potential (POCP) created by the power plant is high and should be reduced.
