Use advice for data set Users should carefully consider the system boundaries and ensure that they are consistent with the rest of the model when using this dataset. It is important to account for upstream processes and emissions pertinent to the raw materials used. Consideration should be given to technological specificity like the age of the blast furnace and the efficiency of the process. Where applicable, end-of-life recycling and waste treatment of the hot metal should be included in the assessment. It is also advisable to update the data to reflect temporal changes in technology and industry practices.
Technical purpose of product or process The ironmaking process described by this dataset is used in the production of hot metal specifically utilizing a blast furnace.
