Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is market for waste emulsion paint, separated. The reference product is waste emulsion paint, separated. Waste emulsion paint, separated is a solid waste under the category of construction and demolition wastes. It can be sourced in many and various ways and therefore it can belong in the following waste categories: industrial. It is primarily generated in aluminium casting. waste emulsion paint, separated contain the following fractions: 100% emulsion paint. By the database default (and per unit of reference product),waste emulsion paint, separated has 0% water on wet mass basis (100% dry matter) and Carbon present is of only fossil origin (27% on a dry matter basis). It has a higher heating value of 11.4 MJ/kg and a lower heating value of 10.51 MJ/kg . This kind of by-product (recyclable or waste) is generated from ordinary transforming activities, and as such can be considered for modelling waste outputs of comparable composition. In the ecoinvent database, this by-product is used in the following processes: treatment of waste emulsion paint, collection for final disposal. Based on the aforementioned treatments, this by-product receives, it is a non-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 reference product amount is -1. The cut-off classification is Waste. The activity type is ordinary market activity.
