Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product 'molybdenum' is a metal. It is shiny and silvery produced as a solid grey powder and it is a transition metal. It is a direct product of hydrometallurgical process. It can be used in the following applications and/or processes: alloys production as lubricant additive catalysts for the petroleum industry inks for circuit boards pigments and electrodes. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market activity. The reference product amount is 1.

Emission intensity of the supply chain per Canadian dollar spent on: basic and semi-finished products of non-ferrous metals and alloys (except aluminum). 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.

Basic and semi-finished products of non-ferrous metals and alloys (except aluminum)

Emission intensity of supply chain in dollars spend on: basic iron/steel and other metals. Provided by the Market Economics Limited 2023 in the Consumption Emissions Modelling report prepared for Auckland Council. Retrieved from the sheet: Cons EF 199 SUT in the excel file: consumption-emissions-modelling-market-economics-march-2023-dataset.

Basic iron/steel and other metals

Emission intensity of supply chain (purchase of service/standard good/capital good) in US dollars spend on: basic metals and fabricated metal. Factors retrieved from the Quantis+GHG Protocol Scope 3 Calculator for the year 2016 and apply for years beyond 2016. The same emission factor applies to different types of investments in joint ventures/subsidiaries/associate companies that were not captured in Scope 1 emissions.

Basic metals and fabricated metal

Emission intensity of metals (closed-loop recycled source) The emission factor should be used to report on consumption of procured recycled materials. The emission factor covers sorting/processing/manufacturing and transportation to the point of sale.
