Example 1: WaterExample 1: Water
800 - 1600 m3 evaporation per ton biodiesel, 2030 demand for liquid fuels would be 5.55 billion tons5.55 bln times 1600 = 8800 billion m3
Recovery of 25% of projected water demand in the form of waste, drainage water would suffice to produce 20% of projected global fuel demand.

For 4.5% Salinity:
• 75 tons biomass (25 GJ per ton) per year, pumping of 90000 m3 required;
• 1.50 GJ of pumping energy per ton of biomass
• 6% for maintaining 4.5% salinity at 100 m elevation;
• ca 50% recoverable as hydroelectricity, ideal for storage of surplus solar or wind energy!
• Fossil electricity prohibitive due to low efficiency

Pollution by agriculture - Integrated resource managementPollution by agriculture - Integrated resource management
Israel: Cattle contributes 35 % of total water pollution
FAO: Livestock farming is responsible for 18 % of global greenhouse gas emissions
Many areas around the world are suffering from the problem of eutrophication. The Gulf of Mexico, Caspian Sea, Bering Sea and Arabian Sea. The Gulf of Mexico already has a huge Dead Zone which the scientists warn could expand further .
Phytoplankton concentration along the North American CoastlineEfficient Use Of FertilizersMost fertilizers contain Phosphorus and Nitrogen on which these algae thrive hence it is that we use fertilizers that a) are biodegradable and b) contain lesser quantities of these elements. Also the farmers need to irrigate their lands in a scientific manner. Each crop requires a definite amount of water to give the best yield hence the farmers shouldn’t over-irrigate their lands since it could lead to more voluminous runoffs .

Major Reassessments Required for Integrated Production Systems:Abiotic Depletion (water, nutrients, fossil fuels) can be negative in algae if nutrients and water are recovered from waste materials etc!
Eutrophication: can be negative if wastewater is treated and effluent is adequately polished!
GWP: can be reduced if methane and N2O emissions from organic waste and sludge are reduced!
Land (and other impacts): may be reduced if protein production is incorporated (integrated fuel-food LCA)!
Land is not land: must be corrected for land value, land scarcity, productivity and biodiversity potentials, economic and environmental value!
