Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is cast iron drilling, conventional. The reference product is cast iron removed by drilling, conventional. This is delivering the service of cast iron removed by drilling, conventional. Drilling uses a rotating cutting tool (the drill bit) to remove material from the work piece and it predominately uses the front end for cutting. It is applied for shapes like circular cavity or holes. The process is conventional, meaning that it is controlled manually and needs constant supervision. This dataset represents the drilling of 1 kg of cast iron. The service includes materials input, production infrastructure, machinery and electricity consumption. Maintenance and tool (bit) replacements are not included. Degreasing is not included and has to be added if necessary. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
