| Use advice for data set | When utilizing this data set for life cycle assessment of products made from recycled PVC, it is essential to account for the quality of the input waste material and the efficiency of the recycling process. Users should consider the potential contaminants and the degradation of material properties during the recycling cycle. Also, it is important to appropriately allocate the environmental burdens between the original PVC product and the recycled product based on the principle of shared responsibility. It may also be necessary to include considerations for the end-of-life phase of the recycled PVC products. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | The recycled polyvinyl chloride (PVC) obtained through the hot melt process is intended for the production of plastic particles. This recycled PVC material is commonly used in the manufacture of various plastic products, which can range from pipes and fittings, construction materials, to less demanding applications where the high purity of the raw material is not critical. |
