Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is casting, bronze. The reference product is casting, bronze. This is delivering the service of casting, bronze. Bronze casting is the process where the molten bronze is poured into a mould to be shaped/casted in various shapes. In the service of brass casting, the metal input is not included in this dataset. Thus, this service should be used along with 1 kg of bronze. Moreover, the service includes production infrastructure and energy consumption. Bronze in used in the construction of sculptures, musical instruments and medals, and in industrial applications such as bushings and bearings, where its low metal on metal friction is an advantage. Bronze also has nautical applications because of its resistance to corrosion. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
