Uranium - enriched 4.2% - per separative work unit (uranium production - centrifuge - enriched 4.2%)

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.8. The product "uranium, enriched 4.2%, per separative work unit" represents a fuel. Uranium enrichment can be obtained through the centrifuge or diffusion process. The factor for the infrastructure requirement is calculated with annual throughput of 1500 t SWU for 30 years operation. The reference product is per separative work unit (SWU). There exist datasets for five different enrichment grades: 3.0%, 3.8%, 3.9%, 4.2% and 4.0%. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
