Emission factor summary

The activity generating the emissions is aluminium turning, primarily dressing, conventional. The reference product is aluminium removed by turning, primarily dressing, conventional. This is delivering the service of aluminium removed by turning, primarily dressing, conventional. Turning is a chipping process where the piece of material is rotating while the cutting tool is not. It can be applied to both inside and outside of the piece to be machined and it is normally used to produce cylindrical shapes. It is performed in metals, wood and plastic materials. When the process is performed with dressing operation, then only minor amounts of materials are removed to produce the exact dimensions and smooth surface. The process is conventional, meaning that it is controlled manually and needs constant supervision. This dataset represents the turning of 1 kg of aluminium. The service includes materials input, production infrastructure, machinery and electricity consumption. Degreasing is not included and has to be added if necessary. The reference product amount is 1. The cut-off classification is allocatable product. The activity type is ordinary ordinary transforming activity.
