The Life Cycle Assesment (LCA) is a methodology for objectively assesing the environmental impact of a product or service during the life stages of its existence.

The CO₂ production LCA has been approached in three different scenarios:

1. CO₂ synthesis from natural gas.
2. CO₂ synthesis from industrial gas use.
3. Green CO₂ synthesis (LIFE CO₂IntBio project).

The comparative analysis of the three scenarios leads to the conclusion that producing green CO₂ saves the emission of 420 kg of CO₂ equivalent per tonne of CO₂ produced¹.
