Use advice for data set When utilizing this dataset for life cycle assessment, be aware that this data is specific to the Z10 factory process and should not be generalized to all ironmaking processes. Consideration should be given to the technological relevance of this process compared to the specific context of the study. It is crucial to account for any differences in input materials and energy efficiency. Special attention should be paid to the inclusion or exclusion of recycling in the assessment, as the use of scrap materials can significantly affect the environmental impact results.
Technical purpose of product or process This process is used for ironmaking in a blast furnace, which is a foundational step in steel production. The hot metal obtained from this process is primarily used for further conversion into steel. Raw materials such as sinter, pellets, lump ore, and scrap are utilized in this process. It is typically employed in an integrated steel plant under the same operational name (Z10 Factory process).
