Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is phosphoric acid production, dihydrate process. The reference product is phosphoric acid, fertiliser grade, without water, in 70% solution state. Phosphoric acid, fertiliser grade, without water, in 70% solution state is an inorganic substance with a CAS no. : 007664-38-2. It is called phosphoric acid under IUPAC naming and its molecular formula is: H3O4P. It is liquid under normal conditions of temperature and pressure and it has no odor. This dataset represents a pure substance (100% active substance). Industrially, this product is mostly used in 70% solution state as fetilizer. Modelling this substance in a solution requires the user to add the solvent of their choice in their models. The fertiliser grade of phosphoric acid is impure with 51% P2O5 and dilute fluosilic acid (22% in H2O). On a consumer level, is used in the following products: fertilisers, polishes and waxes, washing & cleaning products and welding & soldering products. There is no publicly available information about the consumption of this substance on industrial sites. Based on EU regulations (REGULATION (EU) 2019/1009), if this substance would be used as fertiliser, it could be labelled as N-P-K of: (0-24-0). The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
