Embodied Carbon Accounting through Spatial-Temporal Embodied Carbon Models

open access: yes, 2023
Embodied carbon is the total carbon released from the processes associated with a product from cradle to gate. In many industry sectors, embodied carbon dominates the overall carbon footprint. Embodied carbon accounting, i.e., to estimate the embodied carbon of a product, has become an important research topic.
