3.32 View option: Quantity view
Procedure
Another view option is the Quantity view. This view allows you to see the economic,
environmental and technical quantities instead of flows.
105. Select the „Quantity view‟ by clicking in the box.
All quantities that could be selected in the Quantity Box now appear in the table rows. For
example you can now find information regarding how much mass enters and leaves the
paperclip product system by looking at the mass values listed under the Technical
quantities category in both the input and Output tables. Alternatively, you could deselect
the separate IO tables option to view the aggregated results.
106. Look through the „Environmental quantities‟ by double clicking on it until you
find the Global Warming potential quantity.
107. Make sure the „separate IO table‟ option is deselected.
108. Deselect the „Quantity view.‟
You should now see all the flows that contribute to GWP again.
Here you can see that the flow contributing to global warming potential include flows in the
resources category and emissions to air category. You will also notice that the resources
total is a negative value. In this view, negative values indicate that there was an input of
CO2 on the input side.
