Environmental management - Water footprint - Principles, requirements and guidelines (ISO 14046:2014)

This International Standard specifies principles, requirements and guidelines related to water footprint
assessment of products, processes and organizations based on life cycle assessment (LCA).
This International Standard provides principles, requirements and guidelines for conducting and
reporting a water footprint assessment as a stand-alone assessment, or as part of a more comprehensive
environmental assessment.
Only air and soil emissions that impact water quality are included in the assessment, and not all air and
soil emissions are included.
The result of a water footprint assessment is a single value or a profile of impact indicator results.
Whereas reporting is within the scope of this International Standard, communication of water footprint
results, for example in the form of labels or declarations, is outside the scope of this International
Standard.
NOTE Specific requirements and guidelines for organizations are given in Annex A.

Umweltmanagement - Wasser-Fußabdruck - Grundsätze, Anforderungen und Leitlinien (ISO 14046:2014)

Diese Internationale Norm legt Grundsätze, Anforderungen und Leitlinien im Zusammenhang mit der Ermittlung des Wasser-Fußabdrucks von Produkten, Prozessen und Organisationen auf der Grundlage einer Ökobilanz fest.
Diese Internationale Norm stellt Grundsätze, Anforderungen und Leitlinien zur Durchführung und Berichterstattung einer Ermittlung des Wasser-Fußabdrucks als eigenständige Untersuchung oder als Teil einer umfassenderen umweltbezogenen Analyse zur Verfügung.
In die Ermittlung werden nur die Emissionen in Luft und Boden einbezogen, die sich auf die Wasserqualität auswirken, und nicht sämtliche Emissionen in Luft und Boden.
Das Ergebnis einer Ermittlung des Wasser-Fußabdrucks ist ein einzelner Wert oder ein Profil von Wirkungsindikatorwerten.
Während die Berichterstattung im Anwendungsbereich dieser Internationalen Norm enthalten ist, fällt die Kommunikation von Wasser-Fußabdruckwerten, zum Beispiel in Form von Kennzeichnungen oder Deklarationen, nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieser Internationalen Norm.
ANMERKUNG   Spezifische Anforderungen und Leitlinien im Fall von Organisationen sind in Anhang A angeführt.

Management environnemental - Empreinte eau - Principes, exigences et lignes directrices (ISO 14046:2014)

L'ISO 14046:2014 spécifie les principes, les exigences et les lignes directrices relatifs à l'évaluation de l'empreinte eau des produits, des processus et des organisations basée sur l'analyse du cycle de vie (ACV).
L'ISO 14046:2014 fournit les principes, les exigences et les lignes directrices pour la conduite et le compte rendu d'une évaluation de l'empreinte eau en tant qu'évaluation autonome, ou en tant que partie d'une évaluation environnementale plus complète.
Seules les émissions dans l'air et le sol ayant un impact sur la qualité de l'eau sont incluses dans l'évaluation, et non l'ensemble des émissions dans l'air et le sol.
Le résultat d'une évaluation de l'empreinte eau est une valeur unique ou un profil de résultats d'indicateurs d'impact.
Bien que le compte rendu entre dans le domaine d'application de l'ISO 14046:2014, la communication des résultats de l'empreinte eau, par exemple sous la forme d'étiquettes ou de déclarations, n'entre pas dans le domaine d'application de l'ISO 14046:2014.

Ravnanje z okoljem - Vodni odtis - Načela, zahteve in smernice (ISO 14046:2014)

Ta mednarodni standard določa načela, zahteve in smernice v zvezi z ocenjevanjem vodnega odtisa izdelkov, procesov in organizacij na podlagi ocenjevanja življenjskega cikla (LCA).
Ta mednarodni standard podaja načela, zahteve in smernice za izvajanje in poročanje o ocenjevanju življenjskega cikla, samostojno ali kot del obsežnejše okoljske ocene.
V oceno so vključene le emisije v zrak in tla, ki vplivajo na kakovost vode.
Rezultat ocenjevanja vodnega odtisa je enkratna vrednost ali profil rezultatov kazalnika vpliva. Za razliko od poročanja, ki je zajeto v tem mednarodnem standardu, sporočanje rezultatov vodnega odtisa, na primer v obliki označb ali deklaracij, v tem standardu ni zajeto.
OPOMBA: Posebne zahteve in smernice za organizacije so podane v dodatku A.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
