Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. This is an immobile infrastructure representing the construction of a nuclear spent fuel conditioning facility. In the conditioning plant the spent fuel assemblies will be sealed in steel casks without treatment in the reprocessing plant and disposed of at the final disposal site. In this model the conditioning plant will be constructed at the same location as the packaging plant in the portal area of the final repository for high level radioactive waste. It is assumed that the plant area (22500 m2) will occupy half of the total portal area of the final repository (300 m ' 150 m). Of this 80% is built-up and 20% is green area. The operating period is assumed to be 20 years. The process includes land use building materials their decommission and machinery. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.

Emission intensity of supply chain in GBP spend on: buildings and building construction works. Provided by BEIS/DEFRA in the official report on UK and England's carbon footprint to 2019

Buildings and building construction works

Emission intensity of supply chain in GBP spend on: buildings and building construction works. Provided by BEIS/DEFRA in the official report on UK and England's carbon footprint to 2020.

Emission intensity of supply chain (with margins i.e. cradle to shelf) in US dollars spend on: commercial and institutional building construction. This factor is representative of the described goods or services category as defined by the 2017 version of the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS). Refer to the source for the source-specific data quality assessment. Retrieved from Supply Chain Factors Dataset v1.2.

Commercial and institutional building construction

Emission intensity of supply chain in EUR spend on: construction work. Retrieved from the EXIOBASE v3.8.2 model outputs for products. These factors were calculated based on 2019 data. CO2 equivalent factors incorporate emissions from land use; constituent gases have not been included as they do not. The LCA boundaries of these factors are not defined by the source. These factors include effects of international trade.
