Nonferrous metal (except aluminum) smelting and refining

Emission intensity of provision of primary lead 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.

The activity generating the emissions is primary zinc production from concentrate. The Reference Product is lead. Lead is a metal. It is soft and maleable heavy metal, with a metalic grey appearance and it is a post-transition metal. It is the direct product from mining and beneficiation and a by-product from gold mine operation and mining. It is in a bullion form. It can be used in the following applications and/or processes: batteries, pigments manufacturing, glass and ceramics production, as a additive in paints, as plastic stabilizer, electrical and telecommunication cables and wires, metal alloys, gasoline additive, shot and ammunition substance, etc. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.12/cutoff/dataset/20262/documentation
