Use advice for data set When utilizing this data set, users should consider the 'cradle to gate' system boundary which incorporates the transportation of materials, batching, mixing, coal gas preparation, drying, sintering, immersion, baking, coarse grinding, hooping, assembly, fine grinding, lubrication, and packaging processes of the Al2O3–C refractory production. Note that the environmental impacts of production equipment manufacturing and plant construction are not included as they are deemed to have relatively low environmental impacts. For life cycle analysis, users of this data set should make sure to include these boundary conditions and may need to adjust or supplement with other data if looking at the full life cycle ('cradle to grave') of the product. |
