62. Connect the steel wire process to the cargo flow of the truck process now by selecting „Steel wire‟ as the source and „Cargo‟ as the sink. You might have noticed that the truck process has another open input flow called diesel. This now means, that you have to add another process called diesel to our plan and to connect it with our truck process. 63. Use the Autofind function to find the „diesel at refinery‟ process. 64. Choose the one that is representative for Germany by selecting „DE‟. 65. Double click it to add it to the plan. It will be connected automatically. Now the production process chain is complete. To complete the whole life cycle, you should add a process for the use phase and another plan for the End of life scenario. 52
66. Right click on the plan and select „New process.‟ and when you are asked where to save it, just choose the Processes folder. 67. Name this process „Use Phase Steel Paper Clip´. This process will contain no elementary flows and represents only part of the system or a gate to gate process. 68. Select „unit process single operation‟. Let´s assume that the usage of the paperclip does not contribute to any environmental impact, consume any power or release any emissions. 69. We can now enter the input flow „Steel Paper Clip.‟ 70. Enter the amount „0.00035kg.‟ Then we assume that after the use phase, which has no environmental impact, the paper clip will be thrown away. To model this you integrate a waste flow on the output side of your use phase process. 71. Type in the output line „Steel scrap‟ and choose the flow „Steel scrap (St)‟ from the object group „Waste for recovery.‟ 72. Enter the amount „0.00035kg.‟ 73. Save and close the process window. 74. On our life cycle plan connect the „Paper Clip Bending‟ process with the „Use Phase Steel Paper Clip‟ process. 53
