The activity generating the emissions is esterification of vegetable oils and animal fats, average mix. The reference product is fatty acid methyl ester. "fatty acid methyl ester" (FAME) is an organic substance. It is produced from transesterification of vegetable oils. In the database, it is produced from the esterification of palm oil, soybean oil and rape oil (or other sources of oils, users are prompted to inspect the respective regional supply chains of this product). It can be used in the following applications: as detergent and as biodiesel. 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/25156/documentation.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: aviation fuel. 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.
