Use advice for data set
When using this LCA data set, users should ensure that the temporal representativeness of the data (year 2008) aligns with their study period. The methodological consistency between the PA and SA data and the background datasets from the CAS RCEES 2018 database must be maintained. Attention should be given to the technological applicability specific to the region, as the background data may not be globally representative. Users should also consider the efficiency differences between the specific aluminum recycling process described and other available technologies, and apply appropriately in their LCA model.

General comment
The recycled aluminum ingots produced from this process are typically used as raw material inputs for various manufacturing industries, such as automotive, construction, packaging, and electronics. The use of recycled aluminum instead of primary aluminum helps to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions associated with the extraction and processing of virgin aluminum ore.
