Emission factor summary

Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.10. This is delivering the service of 'welding gas steel'. Welding is a process used to join metals together by using enough heat to melt metal and the melted metals when cool result in a binding of the metals. This dataset represents the gas welding of steel meaning that the heat comes from the combustion of fuel gas and oxygen.The service includes materials input and emissions. The process is performed when steel parts need to be joined together usually in automotive and aircraft industries sheet metal fabrication plants or the joining requires slow rate of heating and cooling. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
