The activity generating the emissions is nuclear fuel element production, for pressure water reactor, UO2 3.9% & MOX. The reference product is nuclear fuel element, for pressure water reactor, UO2 3.9% & MOX. Nuclear fuel element, for pressure water reactor, UO2 3.9% & MOX is a nuclear fuel. The exchange reflects the use of uranium dioxide and MOX (mixed metal oxides) fuel elements in current pressure water nuclear reactors. This mix consists of 87% uranium dioxide (3.9%, enriched) and 13% MOX. 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/8290/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.
