Use advice for data set When utilizing this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment, it is important to account for the specific characteristics of the sinter production process represented. Considerations should include the origin and quality of the input materials (iron ore powder and additives), energy consumption, and emissions associated with the process. If the assessment includes the end-of-life phase, the potential for recycling of steel products should be considered, along with the appropriate allocation of environmental impacts.
Technical purpose of product or process This dataset represents the production of sinter, an intermediate product used primarily in the iron and steel-making industry. Sinter production involves the fusing of fine iron ore particles (powder ore) with other additives to create a product with the optimal size and chemical characteristics for efficient blast furnace operation.
