"Due to uncertainties in product consumption and the ultimate disposal location, this study omits the transportation process from the research subject to the final disposal site. The final disposal process of the product is based on a disposal model in a specific city in China (Yang Jianxin, Xu Cheng, Wang Rusong. Methods and Applications of Life Cycle Assessment [M]. Beijing: Meteorological Press, 2002, 6.). Due to a lack of sufficiently reliable data, this study neglects energy consumption in the final disposal process of the product and assumes an equal distribution of sanitary landfilling and incineration, each accounting for 50%." The data set does not include transportation to the final disposal site due to the uncertainty of the location of product consumption and final disposal. The final disposal process is based on a disposal model of a city in China and does not account for energy consumption during the disposal process due to a lack of reliable data. The assumptions made are that the proportions of sanitary landfill and incineration as disposal methods are equal, each at 50%. Caution should be exercised when applying this data to life cycle assessments as transportation and energy consumption during disposal could significantly affect the overall environmental impact profile of the cotton product lifecycle. Methodological choices and assumptions like these should be properly justified in the study context.
