Use advice for data set
When using this LCA data set, it is essential to incorporate the indicated year of the data (2010) to maintain temporal accuracy. Due to potential changes in technology and recycling practices, subsequent LCA studies might require updates with more recent data sources. Users should ensure that end-of-life recycling credits or burdens are appropriately allocated based on the specific context of the aluminum's application. The inclusion of electricity and other background data necessitates careful consideration to reflect the current energy mix and technological standards in China, especially if comparing to global or regional averages.
Data set use approval
General comment
The recycled aluminum ingots produced from this process are primarily utilized in the manufacture of products where secondary quality aluminum is acceptable. Such applications include but are not limited to automotive parts, construction materials, household items, and in certain cases, packaging. The ingots may also serve as a raw material for producing aluminum alloys, considering the varied properties of scrap aluminum used in the recycling process.
