Question:
The supply chain of a plastic bottle involves transportation, bottle manufacturing, polymer manufacturing, and monomer manufacturing. The exergy consumed in each of the three manufacturing steps is 0.1 J of diesel in transportation, 0.5 J of coal, and 0.2 J of natural gas. Determine the ecological cumulative exergy consumed in this system per bottle. The transformities are 1.81E+05 seJ/J of diesel, 7E+04 seJ/J of coal, and 1.7E+05 seJ/J of natural gas. Calculate the renewability index of this bottle.
