Reference product: residual wood, dry [m3]
Location: RoW - Rest-of-World
This dataset represents the production of one kg wood wool. The dataset covers high quality wood wool without shives. The input of wood is assumed to be from forest industry.

The production data reflects a Swiss wood wool producer from 2000, which is assumed representative for Europe. The dataset is mainly based on plant data from the producer. There might be considerable variations between different wood wool and wood wool board plants. The processes however, are basically the same.

[The full documentation of this dataset was originally provided in the corresponding ecoinvent report from the Swiss Centre for Life Cycle Inventories, which is accessible for free to guests and users of ecoinvent version 2 (https://www.ecoinvent.org/login-databases.html). The dataset may subsequently have been subjected to central changes to the database, as described in the respective change report for each new release.]
[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-…)]
