Key Data Set Information
Location HA-JS-CN
Geographical representativeness description Jinhu county
Reference year 2010
Name
Recycling of waste polyvinyl chloride ; Recycled polyvinyl chloride ; Physical method 174003.8t/a ; Waste polyvinyl chloride
Use advice for data set When utilizing this data for Life Cycle Assessment, take into account the unit process of recycling waste polyvinyl chloride including collection, transportation, and the entire regeneration process. The energy consumption, as well as the generation of emissions such as waste gas, and solid waste must be factored into the assessment. However, since the company recycles and reuses all of its wastewater, no adjustments for wastewater discharge need to be made. Ensure that the technological boundaries of the study are consistent with the operation in Jinhu County as per the sourced literature.
Technical purpose of product or process Recycled polyvinyl chloride, produced through a physical recycling process, is utilized for the manufacture of various PVC products. This includes its use in the construction industry for pipes, fittings, profiles, and cables, as well as in the production of consumer goods such as footwear, packaging, and flooring.
