The activity generating the emissions is chromium production. The reference product is chromium. Chromium is a metal. It is steely-grey, lustrous, hard, and brittle while it is a transition metal. It is the direct product from mining and beneficiation. It can be used in the following applications and/or processes: used for alloying non-ferrous engineering materials, to produce other Chromium metal like non-ferrous alloys that exclude iron and certain superalloys, used in the aerospace industry in the form of superalloys, also used in industries for gas turbine, and petrochemical. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
