Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is natural stone plate production, polished. The Reference Product is natural stone plate, polished. The product "natural stone plate, polished" represents a polished granite plate. For the polishing process it has been assumed that about 0.05 mm on each side of the plate is emitted as dust. The amount of dust per slab is therefore: (0.5 * 0.5 * 2 + 0.5 * 0.03 * 4) * 0.00005 = 0.000028 m3 or 0.077 kg and consequently, the amount of dust per kg of plate is 0.0037 kg. It is assumed that no cooling water is used in this process. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity.
