Use advice for data set
The data set is derived from an average of results reported in literature reviews and should be used to represent sulfation roasting processes within the timeframe of 2013-2016. Users of this data set should note that it does not account for the recycling or treatment of plastics and metal casings, labor costs, and factory construction costs. Additionally, when applying this data in a context specific to China, users should combine this data with official Chinese statistics, trade and industry sources to ensure relevance and accuracy. This data set is specifically tailored for life cycle assessment of a typical 100 kg batch of LIB electrode material and may not accurately represent other industrial applications.

General comment
The sulphate solution is obtained by adding sulphuric acid or sulphate to the roaster at low temperatures (200-600 oC) to sulphate the valuable metals and then leach them out in hot water, where the valuable metals are recovered by precipitation.

Technical purpose
This industrial process is utilized for the extraction of valuable metals using sulfation roasting, a pyrometallurgical technique. Sulfation roasting at low temperatures (200-600 oC) involves adding sulfuric acid or sulfate to a roaster to convert valuable metals into their sulfate forms. The metals are subsequently leached out with hot water and recovered through precipitation. This process is typically applied in metallurgical industries for metal recovery from ores, minerals, and waste materials.
