Summary: | Ceramics is a comprehensive expression of art and science. The ultimate goal of artistic creators is to create new presentations based on specific materials and superb techniques. Beside the bright and vivid presentation of ceramic art, we cannot ignore the process of glazing and ceramic firing, which is a process of high energy consumption and high carbon dioxide emission. We use life cycle assessment to calculate the environmental impact of the production phase. The impact at the manufacturing stage is different for different firing approach. The amount of CO2 emission in material and processing phase of design-2 is much more than that of Design-1. We need qualitatively and quantitatively explored to complement the lack of knowledge on the relationship between art creation materials and the impact on the environment. |
