ABSTRACT- In this paper, the general purpose LCA system, which has many functions such as environmental load calculation, environmental impact assessment, sensitivity analysis and uncertainty analysis, is introduced. The sensitivity analysis methodology, the uncertainty analysis methodology and so on, are stated. The LCA case study analyzed in this LCA system is modeled in matrix format. And most of the calculations are based on algebraic manipulation. In the end, the limitation of the LCA system and the problems to be resolved in future are discussed as well.
Key words: sensitivity, LCA, uncertainty, matrix
