Nonferrous metal (except aluminum) smelting and refining

Emission intensity of copper. Provided by the Integrated Carbon Metrics (ICM) Embodied Carbon Life Cycle Inventory (LCI) Database (ICM Database). Note: The CO2e value only takes into account CO2 CH4 and N2O. The CO2e values were calculated using the process method (no embodied GHG emissions from input-output processes are included). Data quality flag: Methodology - The source does not specify the IPCC AR version of GWPs used to calculate CO2e.

Emission intensity of provision of copper free works incl. pro rata imports. This emission factor reflects the manufacturing effort for the provision of selected metals in Germany in 2015 (average data). Where necessary foreign shares (imports) are included. Total life cycle incl. transport + material input excl. disposal. Reference point product provision i.e. without use. Retrieved from GEMIS v5.0.

Emission intensity of copper sheet. Includes emissions from LCA module A1-A3. This emission factor is valid until 2026. Retrieved from the CSV file OEKOBAUDAT 2024-I in the source URL. For additional information on the application and interpretation of this emission factor please refer to the link: https://www.oekobaudat.de/OEKOBAU.DAT/resource/processes/e5a4ebf9-0e5c-4fd8-bb04-1acb5497312f?version=20.24.070

Copper sheet

Emission intensity of copper sheet. Includes emissions from LCA module C2. This emission factor is valid until 2026. Retrieved from the CSV file OEKOBAUDAT 2024-I in the source URL.

Emission intensity of copper (secondary). Retrieved from the file Informationsblatt CO2-Faktoren v3.3 in the source URL. Data quality flag: Methodology - The source does not specify the IPCC AR version of GWPs used to calculate CO2e.

Copper (secondary)

Emission intensity of supply chain in EUR spend on: copper products. Retrieved from the EXIOBASE v3.8.2 model outputs for products. These factors were calculated based on 2019 data. They include emissions from land-use. The split into constituent gases is not provided as the source does not provide a split of gases. The LCA boundaries of these factors are not defined by the source. These factors include effects of international trade.
