Use advice for data set The studied system boundary was cradle to gate with options, modules C1–C4 and
module D (A1–A3, A4, A5, C1-C4 and D).
Studied system covers the following steps of life cycle according to EN 15804: A1 Raw
material supply, A2 Transport, A3 Manufacturing, A4 Transportation to customer, A5
Installation, C1 Deconstruction, C2 Transportation of end-of-life, C3 Waste processing and
C4 Disposal. In addition, the benefits and loads beyond the system boundary of stage D
consist of product reuse, recovery and recycling.
The study does not omit any life cycle stages, processes or data needs that are mandatory
according to EN 15804 and RTS PCR.
The end of waste (EoW) point of the production scraps is the point where it is processed
to be ready to use in following life cycles. For example, for incinerated waste streams, it is
the incineration of the materials, which results as energy that is then available for
consumption in the following life cycle. For paper waste, it is ready to be used as
secondary raw material after sorting. EoW point of the packaging materials collected for
processing in A5 module is the point when materials are collected and handled in the
sorting plant. EoW point of the studied product is the step when bricks are recycled and
available to following life cycles as waste brick or collected for final disposal |
