Use advice for data set
When utilizing this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), it is critical to ensure that the data is still relevant for current analyses as this dataset is based on data from the year 2005. Since technologies and efficiencies may have evolved, users should verify whether newer data is available and consistent with current production standards and environmental regulations. Moreover, if this dataset is used for comparisons with other processes, the users should account for the possible differences in technological levels and make adjustments accordingly. For studies focusing on aluminum production's sustainability, the inclusion of end-of-life recycling scenarios and aluminum's use phase impacts should be considered.

Technical purpose
The alumina produced in this process is intended for use in the metallurgical industry. It serves as a primary material for the production of aluminum metal through the Hall-Héroult electrochemical process. This high purity alumina is essential for the production of metallic aluminum which is later used for various applications like aircraft structures, automotive parts, consumer goods, and in the construction industry.
