Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: transportation of natural gas by pipeline. 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.

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 bentonite quarry infrastructure. It has a yearly production of 345 743 tons betonite an assumed of 50 years for stationary (e.g. buildings concrete foundations etc.) and 25 years for mobile equipment. The production includes the area of the built infrastructure (buildings roads etc.) machines and conveyor belts used for bentonite production. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
