Emission factor summary
The activity generating the emissions is sawing, softwood. The Reference Product is sawdust, green, loose, measured as dry mass. Sawdust is a by-product from the sawing process of sawlog and veneer log in the sawmill. The amount is expressed as dry mass. Loose sawdust is further transported via aspiration (suction) and collected at a silo at the sawmill site. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.12/cutoff/dataset/13221/documentation
