Research on Optimizing the Carbon Footprint of Products Based on Identifier Resolution

Abstract: This article takes a certain refrigerator of Haier Company as the research object and conducts an in-depth discussion on its carbon footprint throughout the full lifecycle. To achieve accurate tracking and calculation of the carbon footprint of the refrigerator's full lifecycle, this article adopts Handle and Ecode identification and resolution technologies. It establishes corresponding identification coding rules for key points throughout the lifecycle of refrigerator production, transportation, usage, and recycling, and designs a set of identification coding schemes for each stage of the refrigerator from raw material acquisition to recycling. Based on this identification coding scheme, this article calculates in detail the carbon footprint of the refrigerator at each stage of its full lifecycle. Based on the calculated carbon footprint data, it gains a deep understanding of the distribution of the carbon footprint of the refrigerator product and proposes a series of targeted optimization strategies. This research provides a powerful reference for the green development of the home appliance industry and promotes its development towards a more environmentally friendly and sustainable direction.
