The average data for China are based on market shares for each cement production process technology and size, and the respective raw material consumption. Market shares of cement production process technologies and sizes: large new dry process (>4000 t-clinker/day), 29.32%; medium new dry process (2000-4000 t-clinker/day), 23.21%; small new dry process (<2000 t-clinker/day), 9.29%; shaft kiln (<2000 t-clinker/day), 38.18%. When using this dataset, users should consider the geographical scope and the average market shares for different production technologies and scales as contextual information. The data should be adapted for use in LCA models that account for similar technology and scale distributions. The system boundary includes mining and processing of raw materials, energy production, and transportation. Caution should be taken when extrapolating this data to other regions or conditions not represented by the dataset. The LCI data is based on allocations for transportation distances specific to this dataset, which may require adjustment if applying to different transportation scenarios.
