Sammendrag
Denne oppgaven omfatter en LCA på en fjernstyrt sensorenhet som er brukt på flyplasser, som skal opererere til enhver tid. Det gjennomføres analyser av ulike konfugurasjoner for å finne den mest økonomisk og miljømessige lønnsomme sammensetningen an komponenter. Det beregnes størrelse på batteripakke, type batteriteknilogi og størrelse på solcellepanel fastslåes. Oppgaven er strukturerert etter ISO 14040 og ISO 14044. This project is a life cycle assessment on a surveillance system used on airports, that is required to operate 24/7. It will be conducted an economic LCA analysis for the different setups, with two configurations being analyzed and there will be a non-economic LCA for the photovoltaic (PV) panel, to check if it should be included in the final recommended system configuration. The sizing of the hybrid power pack must be calculated, both the size of the PV-panels (if present) and the battery. Calculation/rationale for the choices should be made, for example what battery type to choose. What would be the most economic option will also be calculated. Also, operational reliability should be considered. The structure of the document is meant to comply with ISO14040 and ISO14044, which is the governing standards for performing an LCA-analysis.
