Use advice for data set Users should note that this dataset is representative of the prebaked anode production from 'cradle to gate', including transportation of raw materials and all production phases up to the finished product, but excluding the use and disposal stages. As specific production data for petroleum coke and coal pitch are not provided by prebaked anode companies, the set adopts generic data. The transportation data for raw material is based on regional averages and the environmental impact of less significant elements not having major contributions is not considered. Users are advised to apply caution when extrapolating this data to different geographic or technological contexts and should account for regional variability in transportation, supply chains, and emission factors.

Technical purpose This data represents the life cycle assessment of the prebaked carbon anode production process, primarily used in aluminum electrolysis. Prebaked anodes serve as a key component in aluminum smelters and are essential for the electrolytic reduction of alumina to aluminum metal. The process involves the use of petroleum coke, coal pitch, and other materials which undergo processes such as coarse crushing, calcining, molding, and baking to produce the anodes.
