| Use advice for data set | Users who apply this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment should carefully consider the specific technological and geographical context of the process, ensuring that methodological assumptions such as system boundaries and allocation methods are consistent with their study's goals. Users should account for regional differences that may affect emissions and resource consumption. Additionally, users must adjust for any discrepancies between the functional unit of this process (1 tonne of 65% moisture content wet sludge) and their study's functional units. Attention should be paid to the potential emissions associated with co-incineration and the relative proportion of sludge to coal used in the process. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | This industrial process data represents the treatment and disposal of municipal sludge with a moisture content of 65% through co-incineration with bituminous coal for the purposes of power generation. It is tailored for the evaluation of environmental impacts related to a sludge co-combustion co-power generation facility located in Kunshan, Suzhou. This process is primarily applicable to energy recovery operations from waste management within the environmental services industry. |
