Use advice for data set
Users should consider the methodological consistency when applying this data set to their LCA: ensure the background data from the CAS RCEES 2018 database is compatible with the system boundaries of the studied process. It's important to account for potential technological changes since 2011. When modeling the use phase, the efficiency of aluminum recirculation and the quantity of replaced primary aluminum should be considered. Additionally, users should take into account regional variations in electricity consumption and sourcing, particularly in the case of China's evolving energy mix.
