Implementation of the waste reduction (WAR) algorithm

Good afternoon! Could one better explain the equations in the annex to the environmental impact study using flowcharts in COCO? I have studied some articles on the WAR algorithm but it is still not clear to me. Thank you!

The WAR algorithm is best known by Bill BARRETT at US Environmental Protection Agency. I will be pointing your post to him.

Since the US government is in shutdown, Bill, as a US EPA employee, is not allowed to work. So do not expect an answer till the situation settles in the US, hopefully soon.

I continue with the research on the WAR algorithm, I found some works that provide relevant information about the WAR algorithm but specifically about these equations I'm still researching. thank you for the information! :D

was studying exactly those articles, my question is only about the equations and the meaning of some acronyms that are not available in the works. thank you very much :D

Perhaps have a look at https://www.cocosimulator.org/down.php?dl=Sustainability_War_Monitoring_ECCE-8.pdf, slide 16. I is impact, psi is PEI, M(dot) is flow rate, x is mole fraction.

Excellent material Jasper, Thank you! one only doubt. What is the meaning of (ENVCAT) ?
