Inadequate management of plastic waste disposal procedures and poor recycling efforts have led to increased contamination of our environments, with global plastic waste production approaching an alarming 400 million metric tons (Mt) in 2021 [21,22]. It is estimated that approximately 8.3 billion tons...
A cradle-to-grave life cycle assessment focused on end-of-life (EoL) was conducted in this study for three configurations of a light-duty commercial vehicle (LDCV): diesel, compressed natural gas (CNG), and battery electric vehicle (BEV). The aim is to investigate the impact of recycling...
