Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is market for wood preservation, dipping/immersion method, organic solvent-based, indoor use, dry. The Reference Product is wood preservation, dipping/immersion method, organic solvent-based, indoor use, dry. This is delivering the service of wood preservation with the organic solvent-based dipping/immersion method. The service represents the surface treatment of dried wood with 1 kg of wood preservative for use class 1 (for indoor, dry use). The treatment takes place in open tank impregnation with the wood preservatives to penetrate the wood no more than three millimetres deep. The process includes inputs of the wood preservative, electricity consumption, infrastructure, emissions and end-of-life. The input of wood is excluded and should be added manually. A typical application amount is 200 g/m2 for preventive and 300 g/m2 for curative use case. This means that for treating 1 m2 wood preventively, 0.2 kg of this dataset is required. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is market activity.
