Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is wood cladding production, softwood. The reference product is wood chips, dry, measured as dry mass. The product wood chips, dry, measured as dry mass represent dry wood chips which are produced as by-products in wood manufacturing activities such as cross-laminated timber production, wooden furniture production, and plywood production. The weight is expressed as dry mass. Wood chips are produced by chopping larger pieces of wood into chips. Wood chips are used as wood fuel. In the ecoinvent database, wood chips, dry are further used for pulping processes and for the production of engineered wood products, such as fibreboard, and particleboard. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
