Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product 'glycerine' is an organic substance with a CAS no. : 000056-81-5. It is called 'propane-1 2 3-triol' under IUPAC naming and its molecular formula is: C3H8O3. It is liquid under normal conditions of temperature and pressure and it has no odor. 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: fillers putties plasters modelling clay coating products finger paints anti-freeze products biocides (e.g. disinfectants pest control products) and lubricants and greases There is no publicly available information about the consumption of this substance on industrial sites. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.

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.
