If you have ascertained that there is no reference in this regard, you are entitled to define the parameters as new. However, I do find that there is wealth of information in this regard which can be browsed through net. In fact, sea discharge has been a common practice in a few cases and the impact on LCA would surely be different. Ocean Energy Technologies (OET) is an excellent option in sustainable management.

Greetings,

You may need to import a much more vast database in order for you to have seawater as input. Have you tried using ecoinvent data base?

Of course yes Dr. Bordbar - please go ahead and define so that you have clarity on your research. All the best.
