Use advice for data set
When using this data set for environmental impact assessments or life cycle analyses, users should carefully consider each stage described – seed culture, fermentation, refining, and drying. It is paramount to account for the energy and material inputs at each stage, as well as waste and wastewater outputs, especially during the refining and drying processes where resource consumption and effluent generation may be substantial. Additionally, users should pay attention to the public release date of the environmental impact report for the latest data.
