Use advice for data set | When using this LCA dataset, please ensure that all modeling aligns with the technological scope provided by the dataset, taking into consideration the usage of technology in the year 2009. Since the PA and SA data are drawn from statistical sources and literature, respectively, it is advisable to verify the relevance and update the data if necessary to reflect current practices. Background data from the CAS RCEES 2018 database should be used with an understanding of the regional context, as it is specific to China. The methodological guidance provided must be rigorously followed, especially in terms of system boundaries, allocation procedures, and the treatment of recycling in the life cycle analysis. |
Technical purpose of product or process | The recycled aluminum ingots obtained from the process are employed in various sectors including automotive, construction, electronics, and packaging industries. These ingots are manufactured from scrap aluminum through a recycling operation and serve as a raw material for producing aluminum products which require lower energy consumption compared with primary aluminum production. |

Data selection and combination principles | The data in this study refers to the LCA data of PA, SA, electricity, and other background data. The PA data were obtained from statistical data sources, and the SA data were mainly obtained from the literatures. The background data were mainly derived from the Chinese localization LCA database CAS RCEES 2018, which was established by the Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences and covers LCA data for energy, materials, transportation, waste management etc. | ||||
