The activity generating the emissions is acetone production, from isopropanol. The reference product is acetone, liquid. Acetone, liquid is an organic substance with a CAS no. : 000067-64-1. It is called propan-2-one under IUPAC naming and its molecular formula is: C3H6O. It is liquid under normal conditions of temperature and pressure. It is modelled as a pure substance. Modelling this substance in a solution requires the user to add the solvent of their choice in their models. On a consumer level, is used in the following products: coating products, anti-freeze products, lubricants and greases, adhesives and sealants, fillers, putties, plasters, modelling clay and non-metal-surface treatment products. On industrial sites, the substance is used for the manufacture of products in the following sectors: washing & cleaning products, laboratory chemicals, photo-chemicals, cosmetics and personal care products and pharmaceuticals. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation here for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.11/cutoff/dataset/16937/documentation.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: basic organic chemicals. Retrieved from the OpenIO-Canada v2.9 model which is a Canadian Environmentally Extended Input-Output (EEIO) model. The emission factor is provided in purchaser price including taxes retail margins and distribution costs. Endogenization is included meaning the emission factor also accounts for capital goods.
