Emission factor summary
The activity generating the emissions is mine infrastructure construction, open cast, peat. The Reference Product is mine infrastructure, open cast, peat. This is an immobile infrastructure, representing the construction of a mine infrastructure, open cast, peat. As an approximation, the same conditions as for open cast mining of lignite are assumed. The infrastructure has a lifetime of 40-50 years for the mine and a lifetime of 30 years for the machinery. In open cast lignite mining, there are almost only mobile facilities, apart from conveyor belts, rails and administration buildings. The process includes machinery and equipment, electricity consumption and land use. The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. Please refer to the ecoinvent documentation for full details: https://ecoquery.ecoinvent.org/3.12/cutoff/dataset/6504/documentation
