| Abstract | ||
| Sustainability has strong implications on the practice of engineering. Life cycle assessment (LCA) is an appropriate methodology for assessing the sustainability of a wastewater treatment plants. The present study used Simapro7 that structured on the principles of LCA, it used to analyze the impacts and damages of Diwaniya WWTP. The results of LCA show that Diwaniya WWTP was impact and damage on the environment 41.1 point per 1 cubic meter of wastewater, The most environmental impacts potential were global warming, respiratory inorganics and non-renewable energy. The study also showed that most of the effects were the result of the phase of construction more than operational phase. | ||
