The activity generating the emissions is market for wood pellet, measured as dry mass. The reference product is wood pellet, measured as dry mass. The product wood pellet represents pelletized wood residues from sawmills and woodchips as raw materials. wood pellets have a water content of 0.1. The raw materials are firstly pre-treated and dried, then comminated and mixed. In the end they are pelletized, cooled and packed. Pellets that are packed in 15 kg-bags amount to the 20% of the production. The remaining 80% are sold unpacked. The pellets produced match the characteristics of the German standard of quality DIN-plus (certification). Wood pellets are used as wood fuel with a lower heating value of circa 13.38 MJ/kg. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary market activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation here for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.11/cutoff/dataset/8540/documentation.
