Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is uranium production, centrifuge, enriched 4.0%. The reference product is uranium, enriched 4.0%, per separative work unit. The product "uranium, enriched 4.0%, 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 reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
