Key Data Set Information
Location CN
Reference year 2010
Name
Propylene production ; general propylene ; catalytic cracking
Use advice for data set When using this LCA data for propylene production, ensure to account for upstream impacts of raw material extraction and transportation. If the propylene is intended to be part of a product that will be recycled, include considerations for the end-of-life phase, specifically the recycling processes. The data is best applicable for cradle-to-gate assessments and may need adjustments for cradle-to-grave analyses, depending on the use phase and end-of-life scenarios of the final product.
Technical purpose of product or process The propylene produced via catalytic cracking is a general-purpose chemical commonly utilized for the manufacturing of various products including plastics, such as polypropylene, as well as in the production of chemicals like propylene oxide and acrylonitrile.
