Environmental Evaluation of Machine-to-Machine Services: the case of Glass Waste Collection.
Résumé
Product-Service Systems (PSS) based on Machine-to-Machine (M2M) technologies show high potential to help solve environmental issues. Such technologies resort to electronic equipment and telecommunication infrastructures. This paper presents a methodology for assessing environmental impacts of M2M PSS, and a case study of Glass Waste Collection. Life Cycle Analysis (LCA) has been performed taking into account the complete M2M infrastructure, starting from electronic sensors through gateways to the telecommunication network and service platform and down to the end user. Results are compared with traditional glass collection and can provide insight for design choices in the M2M service.
