Key Data Set Information
Location HEN-CN
Reference year 2018
Name
Aluminum electrolysis ; Liquid primary aluminum ; Alumina for metallurgy
Use advice for data set When employing this data set for Life Cycle Assessment purposes, pay special attention to the regional specificity of the electrolysis process and potential differences in energy sources. The data set is specific to the primary production of aluminum and does not account for any secondary processes such as recycling. Ensure modeling of the use phase reflects the specific applications and potential end-of-life recycling processes.
Technical purpose of product or process The primary aluminum produced through this aluminum electrolysis process is intended for use in metallurgical applications. Its high purity makes it suitable for producing aluminum alloys, components in the automotive industry, aerospace structures, and other applications where the integrity of the metal is critical.
