Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is market for zinc coat, pieces, adjustment per micro-m. The reference product is zinc coat, pieces, adjustment per micro-m. This is delivering the service of zinc coat, pieces, adjustment per micro-m. Zinc coating is included in the process of hot-dip galvanized of steel and it is applied onto the surface of the steel as it is immersed into the molten zinc. The process includes the galvanising (melt zinc coating) and the finishing treatment. This service is to be used if the zinc layer is thicker than the double-sided 65 um or the one-sided 130 um and it appliable for both processes of "zinc coating, pieces" and "zinc coating, coils". It does not include the steel strip or sheet beeing coated. Thus, it should be used with an input of 1 m2 of steel sheet. Zinc coating is used to improve the anti-corrosion performance of the steel so it will last longer, or to provide a decorative appearance. The reference product amount is 1.
