General comment on data set | Blast furnace slag cement, clinker content between 5 and 19%wt. Blast furnace slag content between 81 and 95%wt. Scope and type: Cement is a hydraulic binder, mainly used for concrete, mortar and cement screed. Since it is semi-finished product, in this EPD only the product stage is included. The environmental data in this EPD represents an average of cement produced at the product locations of HeidelbergCement in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany and supplied on the Dutch market. Representativeness: The data on this EPD is representative for the production on multiple locations based on the weighted average of product sold on the Dutch market. The environmental data in this EPD represents an average of cement produced at the production locations of Heidelberg Cement in: - Gent Calculation rules: Virtually no materials or processes have been excluded from the study cut-of rule is well below 1%. Refractories, grinding media and grinding aids are included. Primary data at the production location of HeidelbergCement where collected in 2019-2020 from base year 2018. The “production” of secondary fuels and materials is allocated to the previous life cycle. Transportation to the production site of heidelbergCement is allocated to the production of cement. Also, the emissions from the combustion of secondary fuels for clinker production are allocated to the cement production. Biogenic CO2 emissions are not included. The LCA calculations are made using the Ecoinvent database v3.4. Infrastructure processes in Ecoinvent processes have been included, long term emissions in Ecoinventprocesses have been excluded from the LCA calculations. Scenarios and additional technical information: Module A1: This module includes the supply of raw materials and fuels. Module A2: This module includes the transport of raw materials and fuels to the cement plant. Module A3: This module includes the grinding of the raw materials, the production of the clinker and the processing and blending of the cement constituents. Declaration of SVHC: No substances that are listed in the latest “Candidate List of Substances of Very High Concern for authorisation” are included in the product that exceeds the limit for registration.
