WATER FOOTPRINT
Because there are different approaches to the same term, the need arises to STANDARDIZATION

Water Footprint of Bioenergy in BrazilPreliminary Assessment
The importance of local assessment
Ethanol usines in Brazil
( source: www.epe.gov.br (2011))
Energy from Ethanol
Currently, sugar cane and itsderivatives are the secondmain source of primary energynational energy and ethanolconsumption is already higherthan petrol.

Energy from Biodiesel
Besides ethanol,biodiesel alsoalready has asignificant share inthe fuel matrix.

Water Resources Management in Brazil
Brazil has 12% ofwater availability in theworld, distributed in 12river basin districts.However thisdistribution is unevenacross the country,because 75% ofavailable water inBrazil is allocated inthe Amazon region,where there is aconcentration of only5% of the population.
Amazon Region74% of the available water5% of population
other regions26% of the available water95% of population

The evaluation of thepossibility of watershortages in Brazil(the ratio betweenwater withdrawal andconsumptive use forlocal availability)suggests an overviewof critical regions

ISO / DIS 14046 - Environmental management -WATER FOOTPRINT - Principles, requirements and guidelines
• Water Footprint: metric to quantify the potential environmental impacts related to WATER
WATER FOOTPRINT ASSESSMENT according to ISO 14046
• It is based on a life cycle assessment (with 4-stages)– Goal and scope definition
– Inventories analyse
– Impact assessment
– Interpretation
• It is modular ( the different phases of the life cycle can be added to represent the water footprint)
• It can identify potential impacts in relation to water
• It includes relevant geographical and temporal dimensions
• It identifies the amount of use and changes in water quality
• A WATER FOOTPRINT must necessarily include some kind of impact assessment (The results of an inventory can be reported, but should not be reported as a "water footprint".)
• The evaluation can be made as a stand alone assessment or as part of an LCA, (compreensive approach)
• If the evaluation is done as a Stand-Alone assessment, the result must have a qualifier in the name (i.e. WAF - Water AVAILABILITY Footprint)
• Regional aspects must necessarily be considered
THE WORK CONTINUES TO ...
• Definitions / requirements for inventories
How the use of ISO 14046 can help organizations?
• assess the magnitude of the (s) potential (s) impact (s) environmental (s) in relation to water;
• identify opportunities to reduce potential impacts related to water in various stages of life cycle;
• develop strategic management of water-related risks;
• facilitate water efficiency in products, processes, and organizational level;
• inform decision makers from government, industry and non-governmental organizations of potential (s) impacts related to water associated for each product protuction(eg, for the purpose of strategic planning, prioritization, product design or resource investment decisions );
