| Use advice for data set | When utilizing this LCA data set, consider the regional specificity of water use and discharge due to this process taking place in Liaoning Province, China. Take into account the technological applicability such as the age of the coking equipment, the efficiency of the process, and any end-of-life treatment of the materials involved. Ensure that the scope of the LCA includes necessary background processes like energy provision and emissions treatment. Any allocation procedures for joint processes should be reported and justified within the context of your study. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | The coking process described refers to a single operation unit process within an iron and steel production enterprise. Coke, produced during the process, is primarily used as a fuel and a reducing agent in blast furnaces during the extraction of iron from iron ore. It is also utilized in foundries and for other industrial metallurgical processes requiring high-temperature carbon sources. |
