アボカド種子をデンプン、生分解性バイオフィルム、生物農薬へ変換するカスケードバイオリファイナリーを、帰結的LCAで初めて評価した研究。埋立処分と比較し、決定論的には全5影響領域で埋立を上回るが、モンテカルロ分析では土地利用のみ順位が頑健。エネルギー供給とアセトンが気候変動の主要ホットスポットで、再エネ導入と溶媒代替が優先改善策と示す。
English
First consequential LCA of a cascade biorefinery converting Hass avocado seeds into starch, a starch-PLA-fiber biofilm, and a phenolic bioinsecticide. Deterministically it exceeds the landfill baseline in all five midpoints, but Monte Carlo shows only land use is robust; avoided-product credits drive uncertainty. Energy supply and acetone are climate hotspots, and renewable energy plus solvent substitution are priority interventions.

日本のGX文脈において
食品廃棄物のアップサイクルとバイオ製品のLCAは、日本企業のサーキュラーエコノミー対応やScope 3算定における廃棄物由来素材の評価に示唆を与える。ただし開示制度との直接接続は弱い。
In the global GX context
Adds consequential-LCA evidence on waste valorization and bio-based materials, relevant to circular-economy and Scope 3 accounting debates, though it does not engage ISSB/CSRD disclosure frameworks directly.

📄 Abstract（原文）
The global avocado industry generates seed waste typically directed to sanitary landfills despite rich starch, phenolic, and fiber content. This study evaluates the environmental sustainability of a multi-product cascade biorefinery through the first consequential life cycle assessment (cLCA) of a system converting Hass avocado seeds into native starch, a biodegradable starch-PLA-fiber biofilm, and a microencapsulated phenolic bioinsecticide, using laboratory-validated inventory data scaled through Aspen Plus V15 simulation. Following ISO 14040/44, the gate-to-gate cLCA applies ReCiPe 2016 Midpoint (H) with ecoinvent 3.11 in openLCA 2.6, resolves multi-functionality through system expansion, and uses 1000 kg seed waste as the functional unit (FU). Under deterministic conditions, the biorefinery exceeds the landfill baseline in all five evaluated midpoint categories: climate change (5215.95 vs. 674.03 kg CO2-eq), land use (275.71 vs. 2.94 m2a crop-eq), fossil energy (2514.56 vs. 6.17 kg oil-eq), water use (8.67 vs. 0.27 m3), and freshwater ecotoxicity (341.35 vs. 279.09 kg 1,4-DCB-eq per FU). Monte Carlo uncertainty propagation shows that this deterministic ranking is robust only for land use. For climate change, fossil energy, water use, and freshwater ecotoxicity, high uncertainty in avoided-product credits prevents a robust burden-increase claim against the landfill baseline. A deterministic credit-dependency test further shows that pesticide substitution is the dominant avoided-product credit for climate change, fossil energy resources, and water use, whereas starch substitution is most relevant for land use. Hotspot analysis identifies energy supply and acetone as dominant climate change drivers, and solid waste management as the principal freshwater ecotoxicity contributor. A combined improvement scenario achieves 63.8% climate change reduction and 43.2% freshwater ecotoxicity reduction, establishing renewable energy integration and solvent substitution as priority interventions for cascade Hass avocado seed biorefineries. The results identify the conditions required to improve the environmental sustainability of Hass avocado seed valorization.
