This Seminar will address issues of track sustainability and provide participants with a general understanding of this increasingly important topic.
The course takes a holistic view of the topic but highlights the issue of the infrastructure's CO2 footprint and measures to reduce it.
The contents range from basic definitions to process topics (manufacturing routes), CO2 footprints of products (e.g., rail, sleeper) and systems (e.g., turnout) to Life Cycle Assessments.
COURSE CONTENT
- Introduction to CO2 footprint analyses
- Differentiation between company level (Scope I, Scope II, Scope III) and product level
- Introduction to Life Cycle Assessment LCA („cradle-to-gate” und “cradle-to-grave”)
- Introduction to Environmental Product Declarations (Type III Environmental declarations)
- Practical examples of CO2 footprints (components, systems)
- Practical example for LCAs
- Measures to reduce the CO2 footprint (on the process side, on the product side)
