| 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 the recycling of 1 tonne of mixed construction and demolition (C&D) waste (EWC 17 09 04) in Italy. The dataset is composed of 7-unit processes: 1) avoided the production of natural aggregates (For C1/C2 and C4 use) (Process: Inert natural mix from Lombardy Region); 2) Diesel consumption for waste treatment; 3) Electricity consumption for the waste treatment; 4) Steel-manganese alloy for mill jaws spare parts; 5) Transport of the SRMs produced by the recycling plant (which would be 99.83% of the incoming waste) to the final use; 6) Output of ferrous metals that goes to sorting (Process: Metals, sorting); 7) Transport of ferrous metals to recovery (0.12% are ferrous waste). |

| Technology description including background system | The C&D waste treatment in recycling facilities consists of a sequence of physical and mechanical steps including crushing, metal separation, sieving and manual/mechanical sorting to remove the impurities such as wood, paper, and plastic. In addition to RAs, other materials flow and residues are outputs of the recycling facilities: - ferrous metals (0.13%): they are sent to a sorting plant and then to recycling for the production of secondary steel; - wood, plastics and other mixed recyclable materials (e.g., cables): their treatment was not included in the LCA because no information was available regarding their recycling process and avoided products; moreover, these fractions should not be present in C&D waste (should be sorted and removed on site before demolition) and their recovery is not the main function of C&D waste recycling plants; - non-recoverable residues (0.17%): they are sent to a landfill for inert materials. Good the Reliability; Very Good the Geographical representativeness; Very Good the Time representativeness; Very Good the Technological representativeness. |
