Vinasse - from fermentation of sugarcane (Recycled Content cut-off)

The activity generating the emissions is vinasse, from fermentation of sugarcane, Recycled Content cut-off. The reference product is vinasse, from fermentation of sugarcane. Vinasse, from fermentation of sugarcane is a solid waste under the category of industrial wastes. It is primarily generated in sugarcane processing. vinasse, from fermentation of sugarcane contain the following fractions: 100% sugarcane vinasse. By the database default (and per unit of reference product),vinasse, from fermentation of sugarcane has 94.4565217391304% water on wet mass basis (5.54347826086957% dry matter) and Carbon present is of only non-fossil origin (12.88% on a dry matter basis). It has no heating value. 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: mineral supplement production, for beef cattle; nutrient supply from vinasse, from fermentation of sugarcane; sugarcane production. 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 Recyclable. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
