3.27 Adding a plan
We will now add an End of life scenario. We will create the End of life scenario on a
separate plan. By doing this, you could put different waste treatment steps and variations
and recycling processes on this plan and separate the steel flow fraction according to
recycling rates.
We are not quite ready for that level of modelling so, in our example, we just assume that
our paper clip will be sorted out of the municipal waste with a magnetic separator and will
then be recycled. To keep it simple, we will only take the steel recycling process into
account.
75. Go back to the GaBi DB Manager, click on „Plans‟ and then create a new plan by
right clicking in the display window.
76. Name it „End of Life Paper Clip.‟
For now we will place only one process on the plan.
77. Click on the „Search‟ button, search for „EAF steel.‟
78. Drag and drop it onto the plan
Since each plan requires one fixed process, this process must also be fixed.
79. Double click on the process and set the scaling factor to „1‟ and select „Fixed‟ just
like before.
80. Save and close this plan.
