Abstract This note presents a method to decompose life cycle inventories derived from integrated and mixed-unit hybrid life cycle assessment.The approach extends the decomposition method described by Wiedmann here (Econ Struct 6:11, 2017.https://doi.org/10.

1186/s40008-017-0072-0) by differentiating between impacts from industries, products and processes.The method can be used to quantify the cradle-to-sale impacts of products and processes in the final stage of manufacturing a particular product.We present such a decomposition for the example of life cycle inventories for different types of concrete and compare it to one where the turbo air m3f24-1-n life cycle inventories have been decomposed by origin.
