Use advice for data set When utilizing the Life Cycle Assessment data of the prebaked aluminum electrolysis process for liquid primary aluminum, users should pay particular attention to the completeness of the environmental data for each production stage referred to in the provided statistics. It's necessary to confirm that all relevant environmental impacts have been accounted for adequately, including energy consumption, direct and indirect emissions, and any wastes generated. Moreover, variations in technology and operational efficiency between different producers could lead to variable data; thus, site-specific information should be prioritized if available. Lastly, consider any methodological assumptions that are pertinent to recycling content and end-of-life treatment in alignment with the goal and scope of the specific LCA study.
