Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. The product residues MSWI-WWT WW from medium density board production' is a solid waste under the category of industrial wastes. These residues are produced exclusively in municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) of 'sewage sludge 70% water WWT WW from medium density board production' that in turn is produced exclusively from the wastewater treatment (WWT) of 'WW from medium density board production'. The composition of the residues is specific and dependent on the original composition of 'WW from medium density board production'. 'residues MSWI-WWT WW from medium density board production' contain the following fractions: 100% incineration residues. By the database default (and per unit of reference product),'residues MSWI-WWT WW from medium density board production' has 0% water on wet mass basis (100% dry matter) and Carbon present is of both fossil (0.3% on a dry matter basis) and non-fossil origin (24.15% on a dry matter basis). It has no heating value. This kind of by-product (recyclable or waste) is generated in a specific treatment process and as such is not intended to be used as for modelling waste outputs from other activities. In the ecoinvent database treatment option/s for this by-product include: deposition (residual material landfill). Based on the aforementioned treatments this by-product receives it is a hazardous waste. This by-product can be modelled on two levels: treatment activity and market activity. The former one refers to the specific technology treating the by-product while the latter level represents a mix of treatments. Users are encouraged to inspect the modelling assumptions of the treatment activities and when selecting the market to additionally inspect the treatment mix. Collection and transportation of this by-product is accounted in the respective market activity users are advised to inspect and modify the average transportation distances for a case specific modelling. The cut-off classification is Waste. The activity type is market activity. The reference product amount is -1.
