Technological representativeness
Technology description including background system 1 kg of steel beams and angles, available for all subsequent transport/processing operations. Steel is produced from recycled scrap through the Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) process and the studied product is representative of an average of the various profiles for beams and angles (HE, IPE, IPN, ...). Production of equipment and infrastructures is not included, except for the background system. Primary data data were collected as physical quantities of materials used in the different processes. Background data were modelled according to Ecoinvent v. 3.7.1

The review was performed in compliance with Arcadia Metodology: “Metodologia per gli studi di filiera della Banca Dati italiana LCA” and ISO 14040-44 norms. The dataset has been assessed limited to the foreground data collected during the supply chain studies. Each dataset has been evaluated based on the following 4 criteria: 1. Technological Representativeness; 2. Time Representativeness; 3. Geographical Representativeness; 4. Reliability. In this contest the Reliability is “good”.
Subsequent review comments
The study was judged by the reviewer as compliant with both ISO 14040-44 and Arcadia methodology.
