Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is extrusion, plastic film. The Reference Product is extrusion, plastic film. This is delivering the service of extrusion, plastic film. Extrusion is the term used to describe the continuous manufacture of a semifinished plastic product (film, sheet, pipe, profile). An extrusion line consists of the following: 1. Extruder 2. Mold or die 3. Calibration and cooling 4. Takeoff 5. Finishing In the service of extrusion, 0.976 kg of extruded plastic film corresponds to 1 kg of this process. The converted amount of plastics is not included into the dataset. This service should be used along with 1 kg of thermoplastic material (e.g. polyethylene (PE), polypropylene, acetal, acrylic, nylon, polystyrene, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and polycarbonate). The Reference Product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity.
