The dataset describes the production of portland cement clinker; in the production different types of alterantive fuels and raw materials are used. As the use of a alternative fuel/material can vary considerably between different years.
This dataset was created as a weighted average (by production volumes) of the regional clinker production activities.
[This dataset has been generated using the system model "Allocation, cut-off by classification". A system model describes how activity datasets are linked to form product systems. The allocation cut-off system model subdivides multi-product activities by allocation, based on a physical properties, economic, mass or other properties. By-products of waste treatment processes are cut-off, as are all by-products classified as recyclable. Markets in this model include all activities in proportion to their current production volume.
Version 3 of the ecoinvent database offers three system models to choose from. For more information, please visit: https://www.ecoinvent.org/database/system-models-in-ecoinvent-3/system-…)]
