Subtask 3.1.2: Eco-design databases

This subtask will leverage EECONE Partners’ databases for eco-design and lifecycle assessment of electronic systems in compliance with standard requirements. The databases will be enriched with partners knowledge and expertise, specifically for the electronics domain (databases enhancement will be reported in deliverable D3.2 and D3.3). The partners involved will specify the required formats for these databases to be integrated within the eco-design tools in the deliverable D3.1.
Role of partners:

• Dassault Systèmes will provide the 3DEXPERIENCE Platform for EECONE project contributors to rely on, as well as the access to 3DEXPERIENCE Lifecycle Assessment application and other existing design solutions (e.g. CATIA).
  
• ACORDE will contribute to the definition of API and databases for 6R eco-design electronic system. ACORDE will also work on the definition of internal interfaces to allow ACORDE tools to integrate with eco-design tools.
  
• ANIAH will provide access to key figures modelled from IC definition whilst preserving confidential information. They will let system integrators vary the mission profile to explore lifecycle impact. They will connect system level (PCB) description with IC figures and provide feedback system level observations to IC figures DataBase for refined future use (and increased confidence level in parts). IC integration figures include guidelines on electrical integration of IC (pin voltages and ratings, electrostatic discharge protection, voltage levels)
  
• AT&S will provide specification for interface from system level eco-design tool to LCA tool for PCB production and provide data for eco-design database.
  
• CEA will provide database specifications, data format and necessary data for tools developed in Task 3.3.
  
• D&R will collect electronic system properties (and metrics Board level) contributing to a profile in a green passport stored in a web catalog. Properties extracted from all partners contributions in the project.Possibility of disseminating a list of sustainable and resilient electronic boards.
• Fraunhofer will develop a method for simplified eco-design, taking into account all aspects of the value chain. This includes setting up test cases, which highlight relevant 6R trade-off constellations. Electronics- specific data sets are reviewed with regard to their quality and compliance with ISO standards for LCA (or on which points they intentionally deviate).
  
• HUA will collect specifications for the eco-design platform and database, will use the DOORS approach to extract the requirements at the predefined levels of detail. The requirements specifications will be results of the collective effort of various project members. UA will describe the requirements in a homogenous structure. Additionally, requirements will be modelled with unified modelling language (UML) when suitable. Thus, the formalization of requirements will be enhanced to facilitate design and implementation of the platform. Finally, developers will review the requirement specifications to ensure understandability and appropriateness.
  
• IFAG (Infineon) will comment on eco-design infrastructure using information as far as available.
  
• IMEC will specify data format for compatibility within platform at the beginning of the project. Upon each release of its virtual Fab tool imec.netzero developed in task 3.3, IMEC will format aggregated data and put
• it at disposal of the consortium in the agreed format.
  
• UL-IMF will provide support in development of the database structure related to the set of estimated metrics, process relations for the EECONE platform. IMIF will provide technical support for structural data
• Nerosubianco will contribute to the specification of the eco-design platform and databases. Nerosubianco will join the technical sessions planned to support the design of the infrastructure framework, support the functional design and provides input based on its experience of open platform observer at EU level. Nerosubianco will also contribute to testing and validation with peers.
• RISE will provide support on the database structure definition in accordance with the technical LCA driven refresh and reuse managed on the Reducing data centre e-waste use-case.
  
• SVS designs and engineers data storage servers that will have low e-waste at end of life. SVS will contribute with expertise knowledge on parts, components, vendors, assembly, testing parameters, performance indicators, etc. to compile the enriched data base.
  
• STMicroelectronics will support on the database for the semiconductor sector by providing specific data and identifying lacks in generic databases
  
• TST will provide data related to small primary and secondary lithium batteries.
  
• 4MOD will provide technical support for the evaluation of existing LCA tools SimaPro, Open LCA and Ecoinvent 3.8 database
