This dataset was built as a weighted average of regional datasets of the same activityName. Weights are based on production volumes.
BR-SP: production volume = 1.3e+08 kg/year, weight = 0.8004
BR-MS: production volume = 1.38e+07 kg/year, weight = 0.08466
BR-PR: production volume = 1.05e+07 kg/year, weight = 0.06442
BR-GO: production volume = 6.18e+06 kg/year, weight = 0.03793
BR-PE: production volume = 1.49e+06 kg/year, weight = 0.009167
BR-RS: production volume = 3.53e+05 kg/year, weight = 0.002165
BR-RN: production volume = 1.8e+05 kg/year, weight = 0.001108
BR-DF: production volume = 2.22e+04 kg/year, weight = 0.0001364
Undefined unit processes (UPRs) are the unlinked, multi-product activity datasets that form the basis for all of the system models available in the ecoinvent database. This is the way the datasets are obtained and entered into the database by the data providers. These activity datasets are useful for investigating the environmental impacts of a specific activity (gate-to-gate), without regard to its upstream or downstream impacts.
