| Use advice for data set | The LCA data users should consider the technological applicability and methodological advice pertinent to aluminum recycling. It is essential to note that the primary aluminum (PA) and secondary aluminum (SA) data sourced from statistical data and literature respectively should be accurately attributed to the relevant product systems. Furthermore, data users should consider the background data from the CAS RCEES 2018 database with caution, ensuring the temporal relevance (i.e., the year 2016 for this dataset) and geographical specificity to the Chinese context. Any extrapolation or modification of data should account for changes in the industrial processes or technological improvements that have occurred since the publication date. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | This dataset represents the process of recycling aluminum to create recycled aluminum ingots from scrap aluminum. The recycled ingots can be used across various industries, including but not limited to automotive, construction, electronics, packaging, and aerospace industries. The ingots can be processed further to manufacture aluminum products such as sheets, plates, wires, and tubes that are used in the production of components and structures that benefit from the lightweight properties of aluminum. |
