The activity generating the emissions is market for conditioned spent nuclear fuel. The reference product is conditioned spent nuclear fuel. Conditioned spent nuclear fuel is a solid waste under the category of industrial wastes. It is primarily generated in the treatment process of spent nuclear fuels. conditioned spent nuclear fuel contain the following fractions: 100% nuclear waste. By the database default (and per unit of reference product),conditioned spent nuclear fuel has 0% water on wet mass basis (100% dry matter) and it has no Carbon content. It has no heating value. This kind of by-product (recyclable or waste) is generated in a specific treatment process, and as such is not intended to be used as for modelling waste outputs from other activities. In the ecoinvent database, treatment option/s for this by-product include: deposition (interim storage). Based on the aforementioned treatments, this by-product receives, it is a hazardous waste. This by-product can be modelled on two levels: treatment activity and market activity. The former one refers to the specific technology treating the by-product while the latter level represents a mix of treatments. Users are encouraged to inspect the modelling assumptions of the treatment activities and when selecting the market to additionally inspect the treatment mix. Collection and transportation of this by-product is accounted in the respective market activity, users are advised to inspect and modify the average transportation distances for a case specific modelling. The reference product amount is -1. The cut-off classification is Waste. The activity type is ordinary market activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation here for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.11/cutoff/dataset/14933/documentation.
