Description

The provided steel production process, specifically for rolling of steel billets, is typically employed in the creation of steel sections, rails, rods, and bars. Such steel products are fundamental components used in construction, industrial machinery, transportation infrastructure, and other engineering applications requiring sturdy and durable metallic elements. When using data sets describing the steel rolling process for billets, consider the following methodological advice: account for energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions during the rolling process; include yield losses in the assessment; consider the origin and processing of raw materials, such as steel billets; and where applicable, incorporate end-of-life recycling rates for steel products. Ensure that technological applicability aligns with the specific requirements of your LCA study, such as geographical and temporal relevance, technology sophistication, and production scale.
