Use advice for data set
When utilizing this LCA dataset, users should note that the production of wheat straw and sawdust were not included in the environmental impact assessment since they are considered as waste residuals. For accurate assessment, users should apply the data within the context of the assumed mix and solar drying process, reflecting real-world scenarios. The reference unit for environmental performance comparison of adobe production is 1 kg per functional unit. It's crucial to maintain consistency with the functional unit for valid comparisons among different production systems, especially when tailoring this data to local environmental conditions and construction practices.

Technical purpose
Adobe bricks, discussed in this LCA process, are primarily used for construction purposes. Specifically, these bricks can be used for building houses and other types of low-rise structures in areas where adobe construction is suitable due to climatic or historical reasons. They are environmentally favorable due to their use of waste residues like wheat straw and sawdust, and the employment of solar drying as part of the production process, minimizing energy demand.
