| Use advice for data set | When utilizing this dataset for Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) purposes, consider the energy consumption and emissions associated with the tempering process. The dataset should be used to model the impact specific to the creation of tempered glass, as opposed to other types of glass. Care should be taken to ensure the data is applied to the correct life cycle stage. Additionally, if the tempered glass is later recycled or reused, the end-of-life phase should be appropriately accounted for in the LCA, which may include the use of separate datasets for reuse or recycling processes. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | This dataset describes the tempered treatment stage in glass production, which results in the manufacture of tempered glass. Tempered glass is a type of safety glass that is processed by controlled thermal or chemical treatments to increase its strength compared with normal glass. Due to its safety and strength, it is commonly used in a variety of applications such as vehicle windows, shower doors, architectural glass doors and tables, as well as in protective screens and bulletproof glass. |
