Notice of RetractionStudy on Environmental Impact Assessment of Wood-Based Panel Based on LCA Method

Abstract

This paper compares the environment influence with resource consumption of the particleboard, MDF and Plywood using LCA method. By analyzing the list of pollution output and resource consumption, classification of pollution, standardization and weighting sum of pollution and resource, the environment influence burden (EIB) and resource consumption indicate (RCI) are calculated. The trend of EIB shows that plywood is the most polluted of all, while MDF is the least polluted. And the trend of RCI shows unit volume MDF consumes more resource than the others, while particleboard consumes the least. Therefore, to reduce environment pollution in plywood production and resource consumption in the MDF production, cleaner production must be carried out.
