Emissions generated by the activity within the product supply chain as described in ecoinvent v3.8. Used nitrate salts, for solar power application' represents the mixing of the used inorganic substances sodium nitrate, technical grade and potassium nitrate, technical grade to nitrate salts, for solar power application with the molecular formulas: NaNO3 and KNO3 (commonly 60% : 40%) for reuse. It is solid under normal conditions of temperature and pressure. It is modelled as a mixture of 98% pure substances. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary transforming activity. The reference product amount is 1.
