Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is soda ash, light, crystalline, heptahydrate, to generic market for neutralising agent. The reference product is neutralising agent, sodium hydroxide-equivalent. Neutralising agent, sodium hydroxide-equivalent represents an inorganic substance with the ability to neutralise acidic chemicals and solutions. It is mostly solid (else liquid) under normal conditions of temperature and pressure. It is modelled as a mixture of pure substances, and the ability to neutralise is measured in sodium hydroxide-equivalents. For soda ash (Na2CO3), 1.325 kg equal 1 sodium-hydroxide equivalent and for sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) 2.1003 kg. Modelling this substance in a solution requires the user to add the solvent of their choice in their models. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
