I have the Ecoinvent database and the EN 15804 add-on. The results that I get from the calculating are the following:

  • Abiotic depletion potential (elements)
  • Abiotic depletion potential (fossils)
  • Acidification potential
  • Ecotoxicity potential (freshwater)
  • Eutrophication potential (freshwater)
  • Eutrophication potential (marine)
  • Eutrophication potential (terrestrial)
  • Global warming potential (biogenic)
  • Global warming potential (fossil)
  • Global warming potential (land use)
  • Global warming potential (total)
  • Human toxicity (carcinogenic)
  • Human toxicity (non-carcinogenic)
  • Ionising radiation (human health)
  • Land use and land use change
  • Ozone depletion potential
  • Particulate matter formation
  • Photochemical ozone creation potential
  • Water deprivation potential

How can I calculate the following results? 

  1. PERE
  2. PERM
  3. PERT
  4. PENRE
  5. PENRM
  6. PENRT
  7. SM
  8. RSF
  9. NRSF
  10. FW
  11. COMPONENTS FOR RE-USE
  12. MATERIAL FOR RECYCLING
  13. MATERIALS FOR ENERGY RECOVERY
  14. EXPORTED ENERGY, ELECTRICITY
  15. EXPORTED ENERGY, THERMAL
  16. BIOGENIC CARBON CONTENT
Do I have to select any other option? Do I need another Add-on?
Thank you!!

Maybe you have not selected the "EN15804+A2" method for the calculation? We also included some sub-categories like "EN15804+A2 Environment" or "EN15804+A2 Waste" which only calculate the environmental indicators (like in your case described above) or only waste indicators. When you select "EN15804+A2" without any additional naming, all impact categories will be calculated.
