Background
Based on a real life cycle assessment study about the cocoa production and
processing in Ghana (Environmental impacts of cocoa production and processing
in Ghana: life cycle assessment approach, Ntiamoah 2008) and the process
description for the production of cocoa powder in the UK (Scenario building to test
and inform the development of a BSI method for assessing greenhouse gas
emissions from food, Defra 2009) the procedure for creating a full life cycle
assessment of the Chocolate Production using Umberto NXT LCA will be explained.
Therefore, the following documentation will guide through different steps that have
to be performed. The overall model can be seen in Figure 1 Overview of the
complete Model .
II.
Getting Started
).
A file save dialog will be shown asking whether to save the project file on the hard
disk. Please find an adequate name for the Umberto project file. Now that a new
project file has been opened, the graphical user interface of Umberto NXT shows
the workspace: There are four windows on the screen (see below).
The largest window is called Net Editor. The net editor allows for creating a
graphical model.
The window pane on the top left is the so called Project Explorer. It shows all
models and materials that are contained in the respective Umberto project file.
At the bottom left there is the Property Editor window pane. The first
information on the top of this window shows the type and name of the selected
element. Further properties of this element are also displayed and can be edited
here.
Below the net editor the Specification Editor is located. It allows for specifying
the elements of the model. This pane is also used to show the calculation results.
Since no network has been created yet, the specification editor is empty.
The process will need an input place and an output place. Choose the input place
(symbol
with a green line and a vertical trace on the left) and place it left of the
process by clicking there. Then, select the output place from the toolbar (symbol
with a red line and a vertical trace on the right) and place it on the right side of
the process.
Figure 4: A process with inputs and outputs, the start of a process chain
The function 'Snap to Grid' in the net editor's toolbar can be used
to easily align elements. By default, this feature is enabled, which
is indicated by a blue square around the symbol. To disable this
feature, click on the symbol and the blue square will disappear. The
grid to which the elements are aligned can also be enabled and
disabled by using the 'Show Grid'
button.
As there is still a warning marker on the process element, the process is still not
fully specified. It is necessary to determine the ratio between the input and output
materials. This can be done by adding coefficients to the materials in the
specification pane for this process.
In this first process Crop Establishment, the growth of cocoa plants requires
electricity for the irrigation. Enter a new input place above the process and connect
it to the process. Name the new input place Energy. To avoid the arrow crossing
through the name label of the input place simply drag the label to another position,
e.g. above the place.
The material electricity, medium voltage should have a coefficient of 0,317
kWh and Cocoa Seeds requires a coefficient of 4,5 kg. Also enter a coefficient
of 15m3 for irrigation.
Enter
the
Cocoa
Plantation
and
Carbon
dioxide,
non-fossil
[air/unspecified] with coefficients of 25 g and 125 g to the output side. The
process specification should look similar to Figure .
A comma (',') is used as the decimal point. Type '1,7' not '1.7' for
the coefficients in the process specification window. Otherwise a
message will be prompted to confirm the right value.
After entering the coefficients, the process is specified and the warning sign
disappears.
Note that adding the material on the output side results in a change of the
respective font to bold and of the 'Material Type' to 'Reference Flow'. This is
because the product is connected to a system output place and therefore leaves
the system. Any product that leaves the system is considered a reference flow and
is assumed to be (one of) the functional unit(s) of the network.
III. Processes
The following processes use materials that need to be created as well as materials
existing in the ecoinvent dataset provided in Umberto NXT. Chapter VIII at the end
of this tutorial provides a list of all applied materials, sorted by processes.
Information on the unit, material type and data source is given.
The following figure shows an overview of the first processes until the Cocoa
Beans.
Crop Establishment
As this process has already been established above in chapter II.Getting
Started, precede with the next process Cocoa Seedlings.
Cocoa Seedlings
Growing seedlings requires a cocoa plantation, fertilizer and pesticide. Put the
following materials on the input side:
Material
Coefficient
chlorothalonil
2 kg
Cocoa Plantation
1 ha
Pesticide, unspecified
0,25 kg
18
14
Create the material Cocoa Pods with the material type Good and the type
Mass and enter it on the output side, with a coefficient of 4 032 kg.
DST/1000
DST is a parameter that you need to add in the Parameters tap. Working with
parameters has the benefit that, in case of changes, the numbers can quickly be
adjusted and the process adapts it. Name the parameter Distance and enter a
quantity of 100 km.
In this process, generic materials are very useful. As the input and output of the
process are the same, namely Cocoa Beans, this should not be calculated twice
regarding the environmental impacts. Create the generic material Cargo with
each 1 unit on the input and output side of this process.
Now, create the materials Damaged Beans with the material type Good and
unit type Mass and drag it to the output side of the process. Instead of entering
the coefficient, insert the function UCB*PDB/100. Create the material Raw,
Dried Cocoa Beans with the material type Good and the unit type Mass. Drag
it to the output side of the fermentation and drying process and enter the function
UCB*PDCB/100.
Figure 17 Overview of the chocolate production from Raw Dried Cocoa Beans to Chocolate
Transport
Before the actual chocolate production can start, the cocoa beans are transported
200 km to the production facility. This distance is changeable by using the
parameter `DST defined in the Parameters tab as described in the previous
transportation process.
DST/1000
There is no normal output. However, the generic material Cargo is defined in the
tab Generic Materials.
The following figure shows a rough overview of the processes in the production
phase of chocolate that will be created next.
Industrial Cleaning
Cleaning the cocoa beans requires electricity. Therefore, enter the material
electricity, low voltage with a coefficient of 1,7 Wh to the input side of the
process. In addition, add Raw, Dried Cocoa Beans with a coefficient of 150 g.
Create the output materials Cocoa Beans Waste and Cleaned Cocoa Beans
with the unit type Mass and the material type Good and add them with
coefficients of 25g and 125 g.
Heat Production
The cocoa bean waste from the cleaning process is being burned to produce heat
that is required for the roasting. Add 0,025 kg of the material Cocoa Beans
Waste to the input side. Fuel is required for burning the waste. Therefore, enter
petrol, unleaded to the input side. A function is needed to define the amount of
petrol needed.
In this process, parameters are useful. Create the parameters HVB, heating
value biomass, with a quantity of 4,5 kWh/kg and HVP, heating value
petrol, with the 11,5 kWh/kg. Now, add the material petrol, unleaded to the
input side and insert the function:
(0.2-(0.025*HVB))/HVP
Now, edit the output side of the heat production process. Create the material Heat
Energy and drag it to the output side. Enter the coefficient 0,2 kWh. The
following materials leave the process as direct emissions and need to be included
into the output side:
Material
Coefficient
Unit
3,000E-06
kg
6,800E-07
Kg
1,200E-04
Kg
0,024
kg
Roasting
The cleaned cocoa beans can now be roasted. Add the material Cleaned Cocoa
Beans to the input side of the process and enter the coefficient 125g. Create a
new material Heat Energy with the material type Good and the unit type
Energy. Drag it to the input side and enter a coefficient of 0,2 kWh.
For the output side, create the material Roasted Cocoa Beans with the material
type Good and the unit type Mass. Enter it with the coefficient 125g.
Winnowing
The cocoa nibs are valuable for the chocolate production but the shells must be
sorted out via the winnowing process, which requires electricity.
Enter the material electricity, low voltage to the input side of the process with
the coefficient 0,12 Wh. Enter Roasted Cocoa Beans with the coefficient 1g to
the input side, as well.
Create new materials Cocoa Nibs and Shells, both with the unit type Mass and
material type Good. Insert both to the output side, shells with a coefficient of 0,2
g and the cocoa nibs with 0,8 g. The shells can be used as mulch and connect to
an output place named Cocoa Shell Mulch.
Grinding
The roasted nibs are broken into pieces. This process not only produces cocoa
liquor but also little pieces of roasted nibs that are treated as bio waste.
The process is specified with user defined functions. Therefore, it is explained in
section III. User Defined Specifications.
Grinding is followed by two parallel process strings, one starting with Pressing
and one beginning with Mixing.
Pressing
During the pressing process, cocoa butter and the remaining cakes are extracted
from the cocoa paste. The cocoa liquor leads to two new materials: Cocoa Butter
and Cocoa Cake. Create both materials with the material type Good and unit
type Mass and enter them with the coefficients 25g and 40 g.
Drag the Cocoa Liquor to the input side and enter a coefficient of 65 g and put
the material electricity, low voltage with a coefficient of 0,0384 Wh to the
input side of the pressing process.
Milling
The pressing is followed by milling, where the remaining cocoa cakes are ground
to powder.
40 g of Cocoa Cake produce 40 g of Cocoa Powder. Name the output place
connected to the milling process Cocoa Powder as well.
Mixing
The next step includes adding new materials to the process in order to get the
chocolate mix as a final product. As this process is specified with user defined
functions, it is explained in chapter III. User Defined Specifications.
The following figure gives a rough overview of the processes in the distribution,
consumer use and disposal phase that will be modelled next.
Figure 30 Overview of the processes involved in the distribution, consumer use and disposal phase
Refrigerated Transportation
When delivering the chocolate to the supermarkets, the temperature must be kept
low to prevent melting. Consequently, it is delivered by refrigerated transportation.
This distance is changeable by using the parameter `DST defined in the
Parameters tab. See below. The chocolate is transported 200 km by lorry.
The coefficient of the input material transport, lorry >32t, EURO3 [RER] is
described as a formula.
transport, lorry >32t, EURO3 [RER]
DST/1000
There is no normal output. However, generic materials are defined in the generic
materials tab similar to the transportation processes presented before.
Cooling in Supermarket
Most supermarkets have air conditioning in order to keep the chocolate at low
temperature. The electricity consumption should therefore be taken into account.
As the process is specified with user defined functions, it is explained in section
III. User Defined Specifications.
Storage in Refrigerator
The bought chocolate is likely to stay in the consumers refrigerator for a couple
of days.
As the process is specified with user defined functions, it is explained in section
III. User Defined Specifications.
Eating
After all, the consumer will eat the chocolate and leave the packaging behind for
disposal. A new material Eating Chocolate needs to be created and added to
the output side. It has the unit type Amount and the material type Good as well
as the coefficient 1 unit.
Create the material Package waste with the material type Bad and the unit
type Mass and put it to the output side of the process. The coefficient is 6 g.
Package Disposal
The package waste is disposed. The package for one unit of chocolate consists of
3 g paper and 3 g aluminum.
The input side consists of the Package waste with a coefficient of 6 g.
Drag the materials waste aluminum and waste paper, sorted to the output
side.

Mixing
A typical milk chocolate recipe is formed by 45% of sugar, 10% of cocoa liquor,
20% milk and 25% cocoa butter (ADM Cocoa, 2009, p. 83).
For this process, two new materials must be added: The material sugar, from
sugarcane, at sugar refinery [BR], from the ecoinvent dataset and the new
material Milk with the material type Good and unit type Mass (Mogensen,
Hermansen, Halberg, & Dalgaard, 2009, p. 124). In addition, it is necessary to
create a new material named Semi-liquid Mix, which is the main output after
finishing the mixing process. It has the unit type Mass and material type Good
Further information is needed for the calculation of the coefficient of each
ingredient. This information will be stored in parameters to keep them easily
changeable. The parameters and their values needed for the calculation are shown
in the following figure.
According to this ratio, the mass of the materials is calculated as shown below.
The electricity consumption is calculated assuming that 0.00015 MJ are used for
100 g of semi-liquid mix.

TOT*CBUT/100

TOT*MIL/100
Cocoa Liquor
TOT*CLIQ/100
Sugar
TOT*SUG/100
Cooling in Supermarket
Most supermarkets have air conditioning in order to keep the chocolate at low
temperature. The electricity consumption should therefore be taken into account.
Five parameters are defined in the Parameters Tab (see below).
EC is the total electricity consumption for air conditioning over the period of one
year.
RP is a retention period of chocolate. It takes into consideration how long the
chocolate will stay in the supermarket before being sold.
Then, the electricity consumption for the retention period is allocated to the
chocolate sales area by multiplying the EPRP with the share of the chocolate rack
area (CRS) of the the supermarket area (RC).
Finally, the electricity consumption of the chocolate sales area is allocated to the
chocolate bars, which are stocked in the chocolate rack area, by using chocolate
per rack. We are assuming that 1 chocolate rack takes up 1 m2 space.
Chocolate per gram=Electricity consumption of chocolate sales area/CPR
Storage in Refrigeration
The bought chocolate is likely to stay in the consumers refrigerator for a couple
of days.
3 parameters are defined in the Parameters tab to calculate the energy
consumption of a refrigerator.

In this step, some activities that deliver the specified flows or intermediate
exchanges to the model need to be added as the LCA methodology requires taking
into account the pre-chains of intermediate flows. In the table at the end of this
chapter, the affected processes as well as the material names and their
corresponding activities are listed.
If it is already known, which process delivers a certain product or service, the
corresponding activity can be added manually. You can search for it in the project
explorer and drag and drop it into the grid in order to connect it to the process.
The input pesticide, unspecified in the process Cocoa Seedlings shall be
expanded to market for pesticide, unspecified [GLO]. Make sure to select the
Result activity with the system model Allocation Default. The following figure
shows, how this activity was selected from the project explorer and dropped into
the grid in order to be connected to the corresponding process next.
In some cases, it is not known which process delivers a certain product. The user
may want to research the different activities that can deliver an input or output.
Therefore, use the automatic 'Expand' feature. This will be explained by expanding
the same material as done manually above - pesticide, unspecified from the
process Cocoa Seedlings. First, mark the input pesticide, unspecified and
then press the
button. Umberto NXT will search for activities that deliver
this intermediate material. Pick the corresponding market for pesticide
After clicking 'OK', the complete activity will automatically be added to the
network. The process stub will appear in the grid.
Next, it will be explained how to expand materials of several processes to the same
activity. For example, the following chocolate production processes require the
input electricity, low voltage: Industrial Cleaning, Roasting, Winnowing, Grinding,
Pressing, Milling, Mixing, Conching & Tempering, and Moulding & Packaging. They
can all connect to the same connection point and activity to keep the model simple.
Start with Industrial Cleaning. Mark electricity, low voltage in the process
input side and press the
button. Choose the Result activity market for
electricity, low voltage [RoW] with the system model Allocation, default.
Name the connection point between Industrial Cleaning and the activity Energy.
Now, merge that connection place with the already existing place Energy. In order
to do so, turn the input place into a connection. Click on the input place and tick
the Connection box in the properties editor. Now you can simply move the two
places onto each other to merge them.
Instead of using the expand function in every process that requires electricity,
simply link the connection place to those processes mentioned and choose this
place for the input materials electricity, low voltage.
The processes Mixing and Conching and Tempering cannot be connected to
Energy, without arrows crossing. Therefore, the connection Energy was
duplicated before (see Mixing). This duplicate will connect the processes to the
same activity as the original place Energy.
Note that it is important to keep the model as clearly structured and simple as
possible. Ecoinvent activities that are needed by several other processes in one
phase can be connected to them without having to create several identical
processes of the same type. They must, however, not be connected to different
phases. Each phase must have an own process to enable accurate calculations. For
example, market for electricity, low voltage [RoW] can be connected to different
processes that use low voltage electricity but it must be given separate markets
for each phase that requires this activity. For example, the processes in the
production phase can use one activity, but processes from the distribution phase
have to use a separate activity.
Use the same approach described in this chapter to expand the model. All affected
processes including the corresponding materials are listed in Table 1. Always select
the result activity with the correct system model - Allocation, default and the
correct geography as referred to in the table.
As no dataset for milk exists in ecoinvent 3, a similar process will be adapted.
Searching the database, you will find market for milking [GLO] modified,
based on ecoinvent 3 (v3.01). Drag it into the net. In order to modify the
market, click the lock button ( ) to unlock the activity. Now, rename it into
market for milk [GLO], delete the output milking and replace it with the
already used material milk and a quantity of 1 kg. The activity will now appear
as market for milk [GLO] modified based on ecoinvent 3(v3.01). Connect
it to the corresponding process and make sure to select the right place of the input
milk in the process Mixing.
Similar to milk, no dataset for cocoa seeds exists in ecoinvent 3. Searching the
database you will find market for potato seed, organic, for setting [GLO].
Unlock the activity, rename it into market for cocoa seeds, organic, for setting
[GLO] and replace the output potato seed, for setting with cocoa seeds.
Enter a coefficient of 1 kg. The activity will now appear as market for cocoa
seeds, organic, for setting [GLO] modified based on ecoinvent 3(v3.01).

In some cases, a refinement of the model is needed, while keeping the initial
graphical layout intact. In other cases, the analysis of results of one part of the
model shall be separated from the overall results. In either case, the use of subnets
is indicated.
Use the context menu of the process aluminum production to convert the
process into a subnet. The subnet will automatically open in a new sub net.
For the chocolates packaging, thin aluminum foil is needed. The production of that
foil will be modeled in more detail in its own Subnet. This subnet is composed of 3
processes: the primary aluminum, the sheet rolling, and the actual aluminum foil
production. This is presented below. Following, the specification of the process will
be explained.
During this process, aluminum ingots are rolled and processed into aluminum foils,
which are used as chocolates packages.
Name the subnet process Aluminium production and put the following on the input
side:
Material
Coefficient
Unit
kg
Kg
Create a new material aluminum, foil with the material type Good and the unit
type Mass. Drag it to the output side with the coefficient 1 kg.
Expand the input side to the Result activities market for aluminium, primary,
and ingot [GLO] and sheet rolling, aluminium [RoW].
Now, the model is prepared and can almost be calculated. The following figures
show the complete model, separated into three parts. First, the raw materials
phase is presented, followed by the chocolate production and finally the
distribution, consumer use and disposal phases are shown.
VII. Evaluation
Two important things still need to take place before calculating. First, the reference
flow must be set. The main product, chocolate, leaves the process Eating to an
output place. To create a reference flow here, drag the product Eating Chocolate
onto the arrow between the process and the output place and enter the quantity
1 unit. The arrow will turn purple, indicating a reference flow.
Next, the different life cycle phases need to be drawn so the impacts of each phase
can be distinguished. The phases can be either included in the very beginning,
when starting to create the model, but in this tutorial it makes more sense to
create the phases last. Now that you know the different processes. Click Draw
Life Cycle Phases on top left corner in the screen. As the whole life cycle will be
considered choose the Cradle-to-Grave approach. Now, the phases are drawn in
different colours. On top of each phase, next to the caption (e.g. Raw Materials),
you can click and drag the shape in order to distinguish the right phases. The
phases of this example are listed below. The model now includes the five life cycle
phases represented through different colours.

The life cycle model is now ready to be calculated. Calculate by clicking on the
button with the calculator icon in the toolbar. If the model is fully specified and no
problems occur, all arrows will turn their colour from light grey to black.
After the calculation has finished, two new tabs will appear in the specification
window at the bottom, displaying the calculation results.
