Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of Carbon Emission of Garden Pavement by Peiyong WANG, Ruixing LU

“…Results The analysis of the carbon emissions of 25 types of garden pavement materials over their respective life cycle shows that, among the 25 types of garden pavements, the three types with the highest carbon emissions over their life cycle are glued stone pavement, anti-corrosion wood pavement and limestone pavement, and the three types with the lowest emissions are concrete pavement, recycled aggregate concrete pavement and pressure film art flooring. And from the perspective of the unit area and average annual carbon emission of garden pavement, the three types of garden pavements with the highest carbon emission are glued stone pavement, permeable concrete block pavement and sand-based permeable brick pavement, and the three types with the lowest emission are recycled aggregate concrete pavement, pressure film art flooring and concrete pavement. …”
