Use advice for data set | The Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) data for this primary aluminum ingot casting process should be used with caution. Ensure that the scope of the LCA encompasses the entire lifecycle of the product, from raw material extraction through the end-of-life phase. It is paramount to consider the year of publication for data relevance and to rely on updated statistical data sources and literatures for process analysis. Background data is sourced from the CAS RCEES 2018 database; verify that this aligns with the geographical context of the assessment. Be aware of the methodological differences and ensure data consistency when integrating with other datasets. |
Technical purpose of product or process | This primary aluminum ingot casting process is used for producing high-purity aluminum ingots from liquid primary aluminum. These ingots are typically utilized in a variety of industries such as automotive, construction, and packaging, where they are further processed into components, structures, or packaging materials. |
