General comment on data set Dataset developed within the ARCADIA project in the context of the Ph.D. of Federica Carollo (Politecnico di Milano). The dataset relates to recycling 1 kg of iron and steel in Italy. The dataset is composed of 2-unit processes: 1) Avoided production of liquid steel with a substitution ratio assumed of 1:1; 2) Secondary steel production (The Process taken by Ecoinvent 3.8 database was modified by excluding the iron scraps).
