Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product lignite' is a fossil fuel with a calorific value of 8.8 MJ/kg. It is used as a solid fuel and is sourced from lignite mines. Its main applications are in the following sectors: domestic heating and agriculture. 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: 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 not included meaning the emission factor does not account for capital goods.
