Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.8. Scandium(III) oxide (Sc2O3) or scandia is a inorganic compound and the principal form of re-fined scandium. Scandium-rich ores (thortveitite and kolbeckite) occur rarely in nature. There-fore, Scandium is mostly produced as a byproduct during the extraction and processing of other metals. Main applications include: Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC), aluminum-scandium alloys, fuel cells, and lasers. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market activity. The reference product amount is 1.
