Procedure Next to this you find the option “Just elementary flows”. This option allows you to filter out elementary flows. Here you see the significance of specifying if a flow is elementary or non-elementary. 93. Deactivate the ‘Just elementary flows’ option to show the ‘Valuable substances,’ ‘Production residues in life cycle’ and ‘Deposited goods’ categories. If you leave this option activated, only elementary flows will be shown in the balance window. 94. Activate the ‘separate IO tables’ view and 95. Activate the ‘Just elementary flows’ option. In the table you see the total values for each flow category. At the moment you see the flow grouping ´Resources´ on the input side and Resources, Emissions to air, fresh water, sea water and industrial soil on the output side. These are the flows that enter our system from nature and exit our system back to nature. 3.33 Navigating through the balance window By double clicking on the resources row you can expand the list items until all flows appear, by double clicking on subcategories of flows you can expand them too. In fact by double clicking on any bold row you can expand or collapse the items contained within this category. Let us look at the crude oil consumption: 96. Double click on ‘Flows’ on the input side to expand/collapse them until you have located the bold ‘crude oil (resource)’ row. Now you can see the mass of the aggregated crude oil consumption of your system. 60
Procedure 97. Double click on the ‘crude oil (resource)’ row to see where different portions of the crude oil come from. 98. Collapse the list of the crude oil consumption again to view the total results. At the moment you are only seeing the total results for the whole paper clip product system. To get a better understanding of exactly where particular materials are used and emissions released you can look at the results for each and every process and sub plan. 99. Double click on the ‘Life Cycle Steel <strong>Paper</strong> <strong>Clip</strong>’ column header to see these contributions to the overall result. This expands the view so that you can see the contributions of each process and sub plan. 61
