UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

Toxoplasma gondii is an intracellular zoonotic protozoan parasite, infect both humans and animals population worldwide. It can also cause abortion and inborn disease in humans and livestock population. In the present study total of 313 domestic animals were screened for Toxoplasma gondii infection. Of which 45 cows, 55 buffalos, 68 goats, 60 sheep and 85 shaver chicken were tested. Among these 40 (88.88%) cows were negative and 05 (11.12%) were positive. Similarly 55 (92.72%) buffalos were negative and 04 (07.28%) were positive. In goats 68 (98.52%) were negative and 01 (01.48%) was recorded positive. In sheep and shaver chicken the infection were not recorded.

contributing to at least 90% of the impact estimated for each
EF impact category
• Assessed via a qualitative expert judgement

step, please consult a former webinar held on 18 July 2014 particularly
on this topic .

15. Additional aspects of data quality
• Pilots to try to achieve during the PEF screening:
– Documentation compliant with ILCD format
– Nomenclature compliant with ILCD nomenclature
• In later stages of the process, PEF compliance will become
mandatory.
Source: PEF Guidance V4.0
Difficulties observed in fulfilling the ILCD requirements set by the PEF guide
on nomenclature, data set format, and documentation. Particularly the use
of non-compliant ILCD flows is often a source of mistakes in the LCIA
results due to the mismatch between flows and characterization factors.

16. Guidance for data quality in PEF screening
• For secondary data used during the screening study, please use the
following order for selection:
– ILCD compliant data;
– data where export/import facilities are available towards ILCD;
– other data.
• If you collect primary data for the screening, we strongly recommend you
to align it with ILCD documentation and nomenclature.
• Also, you are recommended to conduct sensitivity analysis of the data
sources used.
– Within the same database. For example, for road transport use of different 1)
emission standards (EURO 1 to 6), 2) load factors, and 3) diesel sources.
– Between different databases. For example, between ELCD, ecoinvent and GaBi.

recovery situations, the default end of life formula described
in Annex V in the PEF guide shall be applied:
– to the final product
– to other waste processes occurring throughout the entire life cycle
• Also check the dataset used for modelling credits of material

22. Biodiversity
• To be reported in “Additional environmental information”
• Default impact assessment methods do not express impact on biodiversity
• Proposed solution discussed in last TAB meeting:
1. It is mandatory to report the percentage of material (mass) that comes from
production systems that are certified under credible certification systems. Provided
that this is >5% of total flow.
2. It is mandatory to report the share of supply for which the company has no
traceability up to the source of origin.

• The screening report could include a sensitivity analysis
applying minimum and maximum (min-max) values for key
parameters of the representative product.
• Purpose of such analysis is to check whether other hotspots
appear when min-max values are applied.
• Examples of min-max values:
– Amount of fertilizers used to cultivate cocoa
– Energy used in the production process of ready-made soup
– Number of days a soft drink is stored in the refrigerator
– Composition of ingredients, e.g. sugar percentage in a candy bar
– Recycling rate

36. Most important items of non-compliance
• Missing reporting elements, e.g. executive summary, life cycle inventory
results, presentation of the results per life cycle stages.
• Deviations from the recommended impact category methods and models,
especially for land transformation and water depletion.
• Difficulties in fulfilling the ILCD requirements on nomenclature, data set
format, and documentation. Use of non-compliant ILCD flows is a source
of mistakes in LCIA results, due to mismatch between flows and
characterization factors.
• Insufficient interpretation of the results, e.g. missing or unclear
identification of key impact categories, processes, stages.
• Limited sensitivity analysis

37. What happens after the screening is ready?
37
1) TS sends the screening to DG ENV (screening report and model).
2) Within 4 working weeks DG ENV sends back 2 review reports, one for
the screening report and another one for the model. Each review
report includes a list of non-compliances. There are 4 degrees of non-
compliance (Very High, High, Medium, and Low). Each one entails a
different reaction from the TS with a different timing.
3) The TS sends the corrective actions to DG ENV. The corrective actions
should be described by the TS in the Screening Review Report (SRR) or
Model Review Report (MRR) next to the corresponding remark. In
case of VH model non-compliances, then the TS shall also send a
revised version of the model and other supporting evidence as
appropriate.
38. What happens after the screening is ready?
38
4) The reviewer performs the 2nd check and documents the findings in a
new version of the SRR/MRR.
5) DG ENV inform the TS on the feedback and discusses with the TS any
further actions.
6) Any further interactions between the reviewer and the TS during the
2nd check shall include DG ENV in the loop. Such interactions shall be
limited to the scope of the review and only for clarification purposes.
The official feedback shall be always provided in the report according
to 4) and 5).
