Use advice for data set
| Users of this data set should consider the technological specifics of the BF-BOF casting process as representative of large-scale steel production with integrated coking and electric arc furnace (EAF) plants. Recycling data, if applicable, should be handled with care, ensuring consistency with the defined system boundary and local recycling practices. Emissions data should be contextualized within regional environmental regulations. |
Technical purpose of product or process
| This dataset represents a process crucial for the production of crude steel through the Blast Furnace-Basic Oxygen Furnace (BF-BOF) route (long process of steelmaking). It is typically used for the production of bulk quantities of steel and is the primary method employed in large-scale integrated steel plants. The cast steel is suitable for a wide range of end-uses from construction materials to automotive industry parts. |
